I am so impressed with everything I have purchased from Wayfair!  Especially the furniture kits! Yes you do have to put them together, but they are so easy to do, (I am a 72 yr. old Great grandmother and did 2 entertainment centers all by myself) if YOU CAN READ THE PICTURES, you can do it too. I am so proud of myself and this piece is so beautiful, you cant go wrong on this purchase!  One trick is to unload the package outside, then bring into your house in pieces. Very easy to do, they make it so simple!
