This is a great nightstand for the price.  The back is not as flimsy as some of the reviewers led it to be.  I thought it was going to be a piece of heavy cardboard on the back, but it was wood.  I ordered two, and they both arrived put together and in great condition.  I love the color of the nightstand, especially because I was struggling to find a light cherry color. Plus, I was afraid they would be too shiny (from another review), but I didn't find them to be that shiny at all.   I did replace the knobs to a brushed bronze, basket weave appearance, because I don't have silver in my house and I wasn't a fan of the stock knobs.  All in all, for the price, I can't imagine anyone would be disappointed in these.
