Quality is pretty shoddy for the money. I am experienced in assembling furniture, I've done at least a dozen of one kind .of another. The wooden dowels seem to be made of something like balsa wood. Two broke while moving the item during assembly. A couple needed to be tapped in lightly and both flattened at the top. At one point you need to pick up the back bar with two small attached squares at the ends. As soon as I picked it up the fiberboard on one of the squares broke off where the pin attached to the lock. Luckily it faced the back. Some wood glue helped fix the attachment issue. I would expect this level of quality for less than half the price. Not really worth it.
