I was disappointed to see that when the package was delivered, it was damaged. There was a gash in the outer cardboard box that went through the Styrofoam packing, and put a gouge in one of the planks of "wood."
Assembly was tricky to start with. I am usually great at assembling this stuff by myself, but I needed another person to get through about step 10 or so. To make sure that the parts were lined up exactly right, I needed an extra pair of hands. After that, I was able to finish the rest of it on my own.
Now that it is all assembled, I am really pleased with how it turned out. It looks great in the living room of my new little cozy, cottage-style house. I like the extra storage and the cute, sliding doors.
