Some pieces were not lined up properly so the cart wasn't easy to assemble. For example, the groove on the bottom piece didn't line up with the walls,  so the back panels didn't fit it. Also the top of the drawers scrape the bottom of the wooden top, so the finish will be worn off soon by opening and closing the drawers. There was also a crack on the center wall, but we were still able to assemble the cart. We were worried when the box arrived extremely damaged, but there was only a small amount of damage on the base of the cart,  which we are ok with. Most of the drawer slides were bent, but we straightened them with pliers. As this was the second cart we received due to much more damage to pieces for it, we are satisfied with this cart.
