This curio is so much nicer in person than in the pics!  It is fully assembled, so not much to do when you get it.  Was a little difficult to unpack but, as long as you have another person around, it isn't too bad.  The only annoying thing is the tape they use on the side windows to prevent from breaking leaves marks on the glass. Need to use something to get the stickiness off. Otherwise a really beautiful piece of furniture for the price!
