We needed some kind of table to stash things like keys and whatnot when we came in from the garage. But it couldn’t block the bathroom by too much. It was hard to find something that would fit the bill and in a style we liked. This piece looked like the right fit and close to our style so I gave it a try. I’m glad I did because this chest is very nice! First of all, the packaging was like Fort Knox. They really cared about making sure the pieces were safe during shipping. I really appreciated that. It was also very easy to put together. The chest part is already assembled, you just have to attach the 4 legs. There are 8 bolts and that’s it. They say this is hand-painted and I believe it. Each leg fits into a certain corner and there are handwritten numbers to match each leg with each corner. The quality is up there and I feel like this will last a long time. It’s distressed so it will also keep up with my 1 ½ year old son.
