I just received this piece today and began the assembly process.  There are MANY pieces with very minimal directions.  There is a point in the assembly where a section is simply "sitting" on top of another pending the attachment of the sides.  At this point, the assembly fell off and one long board broke in half.  I can't even begin express how frustrating this is.  I am wood gluing it at this point and am very dissatisfied for what I will end up with after spending $400.00.   I would not recommend.  Very disappointed.
