Carton was pretty beat up on delivery - inside there were a few minor damages - but we were able to repair or cover up - not worth waiting for a replacement.  Just right for location we had for it - pretty color, seems durable enough.  Not terribly difficult to put together especially if you've done this kind of thing before.  However, instructions say you will need 2 people, and you really will.  Was missing the glue for the dowels, but Elmer's worked just fine.

Pros: True to photo; solid; nice "niche" piece.
Cons: Took a while to assemble; minor damages.
