This vanity arrived well-packaged and I had high hopes. It is very heavy and a lot of that weight is due to the counter and sink part, which is very nice. It is manufactured but definitely has a nice finish and weight. It is much more appealing than a Formica or plastic. The hardware is really nice as well with a good weight to it and quality appearance. 

In my opinion, manufactured wood is not always created equally. Sometimes it is quite realistic looking. However, I do not like the look of the manufactured wood of this piece. Juxtaposed with the top it has kind of a cheap look. I also was not thrilled with the loose staples and sticky residue left by the packages of hardware and legs.

I love the design of this piece, but in person it unfortunately does not shine as well as it did in the photo.
