This item arrived in excellent shape and ahead of schedule--thank you!  The quality of the furniture, unfortunately, is lacking and not worth the $300+.  The metal hardware used to secure the drawers and panels was of such poor quality that it broke when being tightened with only a hand screwdriver.  The assembly instructions were not detailed enough to prevent assembly mistakes (i.e., no indication of which side of a panel was to face forward).  Although the wood is beautifully finished, it is so soft that screw holes are easily stripped even with a hand screwdriver.  Once fully assembled, it looks great and is hopefully sturdy, but based on the quality of the wood and hardware I would avoid putting anything over 70 lbs on it, and I doubt it will be durable.  If you needed to disassemble the piece for a move, it would completely fall apart.  Next time, I will shop at a brick and mortar store so that I can judge the quality before I buy.
