This nightstand is adorable. It and the dresser are a pretty shade of blue against my newly painted yellow walls. They look very sturdy, and are not just a shoddy throw together set that would embarass you. I remodeled my room on a fairly small budget, yet am really pleased with the quality. Assembly for this piece took my son under a half hour, but I admit he knows what he's doing with a box of parts and a screwdriver!
