Absolutely love this piece! It’s even more gorgeous in person. I chose to take the middle door off and expose the shelf. Took  me and my dad about 2 hours and 15 minutes to put together. We did use a drill on some things just to save time and as long as you go slow it works just fine. Not the best directions but we were able to figure it out. Said it would take 2 weeks to be delivered and it came 4 days after I purchased it!
