I received this way faster than I originally thought I would. I also wasn't sure if I'd be able to put it together myself and/or if it'd be sturdy enough. Well, it was really easy to put together, the instructions were super clear (not Ikea instructions, these had actual words!), and the piece is quality. I have three cats, two of which are kittens, and our concern is that the kittens would jump on it and it'd fall over and/or be top heavy. As it turns out, the kittens can't budge this thing, and it holds and works perfect. It compliments my house perfectly, holds all our wine, and even decorations on top. Couldn't ask for a better experience or a better piece of furniture, especially for the price.
