It's beautiful, but it is a bit awkwardly made and doesn't work as it should. The springs on the inside that allow it to open and close don't stay where they're supposed to and won't screw in properly. We tried a drywall anchor, but the holes were so stripped that it didn't help. We're going to have to purchase wingnuts next to try that. So, the springs are currently detached and the storage can't be used at the moment. One of the holes for the backboard is off where it should be, so that screw had to be angled and won't screw in tightly. Additionally, the kit was supposed to come with seven screws of the same length, but only came with 6. We were able to make that work by substituting one that was a bit longer. 

Despite that, it is a lovely piece of furniture and we have been using it to lie down and read by the fireplace. Once we get the wingnuts, I'm sure it will work for storage as well.
