I had some issues but got a replacement and the replacement is good. It does take a bit of time to put together. It took me a couple hours to do by myself each time since I did it 2x but disassemble was a lot quicker. It is an interesting piece of furniture. I would love a sturdier version with real wood and better joints but that would cost a LOT more so I think I got a good item for the price paid. I wish the lock was more convenient to use that the little screw in piece which is hard to do and undo. I will be looking for an easier solution to add to my own. Shipping was fast and easy. This is going to help with storage in my kitchen immensely.
