What an awesome peace of furniture. This is a piece of quality furniture that can be handed down to the next generation. This thing is solid wood and the build quality is excellent. The item is packed extremely well with plenty of styrofoam to protect it in shipping. This thing weighs about 260 pounds and the delivery guys did an excellent job of getting it to my second floor apartment with not even a scuff on my walls. I am extremely pleased with this purchase and delivery.
