Absolutely love this beautiful trunk! It was delivered quickly, easy to assemble, and is very sturdy. The hinge was a little awkward to fit at first but once we figured that part it took less than 30 minutes to assemble. The screw grooves are made with a yellow plastic like item, but they are hardly visible from 2-3 feet away. You can see them only if you are specifically looking for them. It is very spacious and a great conversation starter among friends :)
