We are very pleased with the quality of the product, and quality of the materials used. It is a very  nice looking piece of furniture once assembled. The directions were not all that clear, however, and an electric drill was necessary to drill the pilot holes to install the hinges for the fold-out frame. The product could be improved by predrilling those pilot holes, or acknowledging in the instructions that an electric drill is necessary to assemble the product. (It is not realistic to think that screws can be driven into a solid wood product without pilot holes, which is what the instructions would have you believe.)
