Assembly went well, all pieces were marked very well, (I think the best I've ever seen), the finished piece matches the photo. One negative - the cardboard used for the shipping box was very low quality & not strong enough for the weight of the parts. By the time it got to me, one whole end was ripped, resulting in a large hole. Fortunately, the hardware was at the other end, & there were no pieces missing, but had it ripped at the opposite end, I'd have been needing to contact customer svc. Since it's coming from China, they might consider making 40 cents less in profit per item & use a stronger cardboard for the carton.
