This end table fulfills its purpose very well. BUT attaching the two sides was tricky because a couple of the holes for screws were not well-aligned, and I had to fiddle a lot to get all the screws in place. Also, the top "wood" was really ugly - dark and mottled - and although the underside was much more attractive in terms of color and grain, I couldn't just switch to it b/c it held the embedded holes for the attachment  screws. But this unit IS holding a good number of storage baskets, in a small space, very well!
