Great piece of furniture.  Very sturdy and looks nice.  It takes a LONG time to put together and was difficult to do in my studio apartment but it looks great and provides a lot of extra storage space.  (I was able to put this together myself but I suggest getting help because the piece is VERY heavy and you need more than one set of hands to not get extremely frustrated!) The only difficulty I experienced was the screws for the back piece dont screw in all the way - this was annoying but in the end, no one sees the back of the furniture and the back piece hasnt fallen off!
