I purchased this vanity set a bit over a year ago and it functions alright, however there are things about it that don't suit me well. First, the lighting. The lighting seems more of a backlight than a light that projects to you. I would like to see my face more clearly when I sit here to put my makeup on. Second, the drawers. They are not on guides and thus fall down and forward when they are pulled out. Third, I really wish the edges were a bit more rounded because they are squared off and hard, thus if you lean on them your arms are left with lean marks and well, it's just a bit uncomfortable to lean against. Lastly, this vanity is make of particle board and is not going to be a lasting piece of furniture. On a good note, there is a lot of drawer and shelf space, which is something I was searching for. I can't say I would recommend this if a friend asked.
