The final product looks fine and is a nice colour. The adjustable shelves are a nice touch. However, there were too many points in assembly where the holes hadn't been pre-drilled so when they screws were screwed in they split the wood. The back is also made of three flimsy panels which must be joined with wooden spine strips - quite fussy - before they can be tacked to the main unit. The smallest knocks during assembly can cause bits of wood to chip off. I expected better quality from Acosta Cottage.
