I love this piece. it’s not cheap at all. it’s perfect. it’s beyond sturdy. you will need 2 people if not three to lift it to an upstairs area. i would say it’s at least 130lbs. I would move it in the box and cut the box open in the location you wish. There is no assembly and the glass knobs are smartly screwed gently on the inside so no to break. This is a show case piece!!! It’s even prettier in person.
