I regretted buying this when I opened the packaging: the thing stank of stain and varnish. In an email exchange, Wayfair assured me that the smell would go away in three weeks. So I stupidly put it together. It's been about a month, but the smell and fumes are still as awful. It's going in the trash, expensive lesson learned. 

As far as materials: it's not exactly solid wood as you would expect. Each large piece is actually made up of slats of solid wood held together by glue and veneer. Just FYI.

Pros: Looks good
Cons: Fumes, not whole cut pieces of wood
