Unfortunately when I purchased this it stated in the description it was “fully assembled.” I can assure it is not, and has a thousand pieces. Directions are horrible. Took me a couple of hours to put together. When I opened the box I noticed both sides of the piece were busted. One of the mirrors is also broken in a small place. I didn’t want the hassle of retiring so I put it together anyway… it’s for my daughter and fortunately the sides won’t be seen where it will be placed. Overall a pretty piece, but would NOT buy again.
