Would give zero stars if i could. The rack assembles via notches in the wooden legs that go between the rungs on the rack. Except that none of them fit, not a single one. Tried every single one and even flipped each leg to see if that would work but nope. The distressed look comes from some white powdery substance so when you try to assemble it's all that white powder gets on your hands. Lastly, it shipped in a box at leaat twice the size of the rack so returning it would have likely cost more than the rack itself. Needless to say, it's in the trash. First item from wayfair ive been really disappointed in.
