We have received numerous compliments on this piece.  It is a very nice looking piece, not as tall as it looks in the pictures. It was fairly easy to put together, you had to perform a little bit of a balancing act with the slanted pieces when putting it together, but really no problem at all. My only dis would be that it has stickers that covers the screw holes. All in all I'm not sorry that we bought it and I would recommend it !
