It was not obvious from looking at the pictures  how these are constructed.  The front and back, including the legs are cut from thick wood so the legs are flat.  If you have ever put together cardboard doll furniture you get the idea.  When I opened the box I was surprised to see this and it felt a bit cheap.  A rounded leg screwed in would give it a nicer feel.  I needed the guest room ready the next day so I figured that for the price I'd made due with these.   Once I got them together, the finished nightstands look bit better than I had expected looking at the part.  I still might have preferred "a three dimensional leg."   The price for the pair was a drawing point for me, but since then I have seen options from other sellers that are in the ball park.  These night stands are sturdy and were very easy to put together.  When my son came over and saw them he thought they looked good.
