i accidentally broke a panel by tugging on it but that was my bad -- should have grasped it by the solid wood parts and not the laser cut portions. fixed it with a hot glue gun. for the price, the look cannot be beat. looks antique from about 3 feet away. not necessarily reviewing this based on quality of construction. realistically, if this were hand cut and not laser cut wood, and all solid pieces of wood rather than particle board, we'd be looking at a $5K+ piece of furniture, so it's important to have realistic expectations. note that the color is slightly lighter than what is pictured, it's actually somewhere between cherry brown and mahogany brown, more of a warm medium dark brown rather than the blackish brown pictured in the photo.
