paint comes off in LARGE quantities of powder. after wiping it down several times it's still shedding profusely, plus now just gently wiping it has caused almost half the paint to come off. it's been airing out for two weeks yet still has a powerful chemical odor so strong i cannot be in the same room with it without getting a headache. it is not as antiqued as the photos make it appear, which i don't care about very much, but it's important to know. be aware there is no glass in the cut outs. it was already overpriced for what it was supposed to be (cheap furniture) but for it to be dangerous and this poorly made is unacceptable. and on top of all of that if i want to return it i have to pay shipping. ridiculous.
