Once put together, as much as one can manage, it's great. It's sturdy enough to sit on, looks very nice, and functions as it should. Problem for me was that the screws provided were wildly inaccurate and differing from each other, to the point where I had to leave two of them out of the finished item. They do send you some extras, because they apparently know of this problem, but even the extras were not enough in my case.
