As with most packaged furniture, it was a bit of a pain getting it all together. Some of the parts didn't fit so snug, but get a good wood glue and use liberally has been our experience. The drawers could slide better. But we got it because we have a small kitchen and it definitely adds the needed extra counter and storage space! Agree with others who added drawer pulls, and also spray painted the towel bar to match the brass ones we bought.
