It went together beautifully!  Following the cardinal rule of NOT tightening any of the screws until it was all loosely together,  finding a level surface, and then tightening screws from the top of the furniture piece to the bottom!  It looks great!  Very happy with this purchase!

Pros: Looks gorgeous and has the air of a quality pieces of furniture.
Cons: Probaby not an investment for a home with small kids or active pets
