The retail  price listed was over $400 and I purchased in the low $250 range so I thought what a great deal and thought it'd be more substantial than it actually is, which was disappointing. I guess furniture no matter the price ( unless into the $10,000+) is all MDF, plywood, particle board, glue, and your prayers that  it'll all stay together long enough to have been worth any of the money you dug out to pay for it or the hour You spend tormented. surrounded by your plywood and plastic screws, bolts...and glue asking yourself where it all went wrong?
