One of the doors broke off after a couple months and the drop table permanently slants downwards when it's "up," so things tend to slide a bit. Also, the bottom of the shelf started to droop. I wouldn't recommend if this is a piece you plan to use frequently, as it's just not very durable. Otherwise, if you're just using as a side table or something (and not as an island, as we did) then it looks nice when it's assembled.
