First, I was surprised at how fast I received this item. I ordered it and received it in less than 72hrs. Next, this piece is solid, to say the least. It took me about 2.5 hours to assemble. I had help towards the end, and so that saved time. I was looking for a temporary solution until we get a new insert, and this was perfect for what I needed. The best part once we are finished is that it will be repurposed elsewhere in our home. It goes with everything. Its pretty sturdy, so find a partner to help put it together. Instructions are spot on, and all the hardware is with it. Youll be glad you bought it.
