The nightstand was everything I was hoping for.  It was easy enough to put together and super sturdy.  I took one star off because the bottom shelf was a bit difficult for me to place correctly and fasten to the rest of the nightstand.  Also, I can see that some people might have problems putting it together - in order to fasten the legs to the tabletop, you have to put your hand through a small-ish opening.  I have pretty average size hands for a woman and my hand barely fit. 

Pros: Great value, solid packaging, sturdy nightstand
Cons: Bottom shelf was hard to fasten, openings to fasten legs were small
