The nightstand was a bit of a challenge.  The first one had a lot of knicks and scratches in it so we were able to get it replaced.  The replacement was in good condition however, it was a nightmare to put together.  I think it took me about 5 hours to put it together.  There were about 40 pieces.  The instructions were a bit trying to follow.   But, once I got it together it looks pretty good.
