I'm rating this item four stars because the instructions were terrible. Since the pieces are not labeled nor did the instructions clearly identify wrong sides versus right sides,(I would consider myself mechanically adept), I had to disassemble almost the entire piece once I realized the bottom was upside down. Other than putting together, this  item came exactly as pictured and described. It was purchased as part of a redesignreorg for my tween who's beginning middle school. It's being used as a window seat with books stored in wicker baskets.
