Arrived TOTALLY assembled and in perfect condition.  We had looked for weeks for the perfect piece to hold our "going out the door" items - shoes, flashlights, batteries, spare change, etc...  This piece was it!  We purchased two baskets (12"w x 14"d) to hold our shoes below and it even has a long drawer at the bottom for scarves, hats, gloves and the dog leash.  This lovely piece is a winner.

Pros: Totally assembled, beautiful coloring, sturdy
Cons: drawers are cheaply made and do not slide easily but we put beeswax on them and all is well
