I purchased this as a gift and the reviews had me convinced this was not a cheaply made item. During assembly, the plastic corner piece broke off (it was glued but broke off). The base where the screws go in, two of the bases came out as i tried to straiten the path of the screw. And, the holes do not line up 100% properly. The top of the item, the wood, seems to be well made but gotta tell you, this is not worth the nearly 500 dollars i paid for it. I do not recommend this item. See pictures. Photo shows plastic part broken off and the base screw receiver moved out of the wood.
