Pretty wood (products).  Major parts are very sturdy.  Took my husband &  I approx. 4 1/2 hours to put together.  Some of the written instructions do not match the actual drawings of the stand

Cons: 3 parts were damaged so we could not complete & use the stand. Will see how long it takes for the replacement parts to arrive. 1-21-16  replacement parts arrived in perfect condition.

Cons: The holes for the screws on the top & back parts did not allign.  Some were off by 1/2 inch.  If we were to order another piece of furniture, we would save ourselves a LOT of grief & order a preassembled product.
