A very attractive dressing table with a utilitarian flair (eg a 'holster' to mount a hair dryer). Not too difficult to assemble, but given my poor reading of the instructions, it took me a couple of hours. Most people could do it in under half that time. It is highly recommended as a 'stand out' piece of bedroom furniture. It is also compact where space is an issue. It is £10 cheaper this week (which is annoying).
