Beautiful piece! Its very sturdy and a great accent piece.  Took a little long to put together, and my husband and I only almost got divorced twice while building it!  The directions are pretty good, but you really have to look at the pics in the directions to see which way the pieces go together.  (Like which side is up, back, or right and left) I had the whole unit together and realized the tracks for the drawers were on backwards and it was difficult to remove them and switch them around as they were added during the first few steps. I managed and its all good. I did most of the building myself with some help. It would definitely go faster if it was two people building the whole time. Besides that, everything else went together smoothly and we love it!
