This was the first furniture item I have purchased. I was extremely impressed by a number of things. The ease of assembly was AMAZING. Every piece was clearly identified. The screws and other hardware werent in a bag all jumbled together, but neatly divided and marked in a blister pack, including a section marked extras. Directions were clear. The pieces went together cleanly and without problems. All holes were pre-drilled in the right places. The quality of the wood was very good, nice finish and color. The only issue was that two corners of the top were slightly rubbed, but nothing that a little furniture marker couldnt cover. All in all, I was very happy with the whole experience. Would definitely buy an item made by them again.
