My mom and I both thought this was an excellent bargain. There’s a good weight to the shelves which is a good indicator it is made out of quality materials and for the price it’s a great piece. It fits our space perfectly and it arrived next day for us which was really unexpected. The pieces line up very well there are some places where the boards aren’t perfectly flush but it is way better than some that I’ve had. It looks s a bit of a tough build for beginners perhaps but other than that it’s a quality piece and worth the price definitely.
