Gorgeous buffet.  When completed, I was amazed at how professional it looked.  The assembly directions were easy to follow, all required parts were provided and labeled, and everything was pre-drilled exactly.  I'm a 65-year old female with moderate experience at assembling furniture.  I was able to assemble from start to finish in approximately 4 hours, and only needed assistance moving it into place in the dining room.  It fits in perfectly and provides much needed additional storage space. Would highly recommend this buffet to anyone desiring a solid, lovely, and useful piece of dining room furniture.
