It works, it was not too bad to put together. It's fairly solid, but it is also fairly cheap looking - the exposed screws were equipped with white stickers to attempt to cover up the screw heads. While this doesn't bother me in some places, I think that the top of the unit should have been a solid piece, somehow attached without the screws showing on the top. I feel OK about it, because it is just playroom storage, but I'm not in love with it.
