I am thrilled with the piece but I have to say it wasn't easy to put together by myself and needed my husband to do most of the work. I had my eye on this for the longest time. I purchased two others from another company and returned both. The packaging on this was great and like I said earlier, I am thrilled with it.  It's well made and sturdy not to mention very attractive. I highly recommend it (but have patients while you try and figure out the nutty directions).
