Was pretty skeptical when I started unpacking the box. The slats are very thin and a couple were not quite long enough to fasten but I just secured a couple that werent predrilled. It all worked out. The drawers are not heavy duty but theyll hold lightweight items. All assembled it is very attractive and overall iam please. I would be more skeptical of my husband and I were large people. I dont think it would hold up without additional heavier slats.
