Odd that I'm not the only one that didn't notice the FAUX marble top.  That was a disappointment. I'm usually pretty good at not missing details such as that as I shop online quite a bit. The issue isn't so much that it isn't real as much as it looks like drawer liner or wall paper layered on probably wood.  I'm no stranger to putting pieces together, but this one took a little more time. The drawer handle wasn't threaded properly so only one side could be screwed down... ordering a new handle.  And one of the bolts literally snapped in half... and there were no extra parts.  Who knew I was that strong with one itty bitty allen wrench.  I'm not impressed with the piece at all and had i not waited 2 mos to put it together I would have sent it back and put my money towards something that didn't look so cheap.  The broken parts were just another annoyance.
