After my husband nearly finished assembling it things became clear that something wasn't 'right' about the fit....That was the 1st day.  After reading the reviews he believed that another guy had had the Same problem.  So:  disassembled down the the base (starting point) and found the reason:  those initial holes were incorrect!!!  Reassembled it this time with confidence.  I will not indulge you with all the time it took.  Suffice to say we're still happily married.  My issue is the ACTUAL shade of the "white" option.....It has a pronounced yellow cast.  Why the variance is anybody's guess!!!  The piece is gorgeous and I can't regret it's purchase.  That and the equitable treatment by Wayfair ARE the only reasons I gave it 3 stars.  Otherwise, for all the aggravation, wasted time and yellow-yuk color I'd have given 1 star......Or zero, if I could.
