This is a beautiful piece of furniture. It was packaged very well nothing was damaged. It was easy to remove from the box. After I cut out the end of the box I was able to push the piece right on out. The best part it didn't require any assembly. I love how it looks in my living room. Glad I chose this grey wash color. It has texture and various colors throughout which can align to any furniture style/color. The cabinets are deep now I have to find things to go inside.
