Pretty difficult to assemble. Nice once it’s assembled. Highly advise using 2-3 people while building. Also make sure you follow directions and pay attention to detail. In a couple places wooden dowels were used and it didn’t say so in the pieces you needed for that step. We just noticed by the picture and best guessed. Satisfied with the purchase thought! Doors move great and glide easy!
It looks exactly as pictured. It took maybe an hour to put together with 2 people. The instructions were easy to follow there are just a lot of parts. There was one crack in the top piece on the bottom/back side. I did not return it and just glued it so hopefully it does not become worse. Other than that, there have been no problems and the table looks great.
My teenage daughter and I built this together. Didn’t take as long as I thought it would. It is beautiful and more than I expected! Came perfectly without a scratch. I absolutely love it
Finishing work is not very good. Formica is already coming apart. You can see the cardboard wood in some areas coming through. The cardboard wood is cracked already. If I was not desperate for this I would have returned it. I will try to send even more pictures to the manufacturer. It’s not horrible but for the money should be better. QC people need to have a meeting.
Update: so I have been going back and forth with the seller for about 3 days now and they are not easy to deal with. Bad customer service too.
Another update: do not buy this. The manufacturer now can not send me the replacement parts as they are too large and they have no way of sending out a new unit. They tell me to have amazon do it when it’s already put together. It’s not amazons fault it’s a sub par craftsmanship. I wish you could see the Chain of emails over the past 2 weeks.
We LOVE our new piece of furniture.. I say that because it’s sold as a tv console but we’re using it as my wine cabinet. I plannto add some wine racks in the middle but for now, we just set them inside. I feel like you can really do anything with this piece of furniture! My husband and I built it in about an hour total. It’s beautiful, sturdy, well worth the money. We are very happy with it. Oh and the instructions were some
Of the best we’ve used to date!
Lots of steps but pretty easy to assemble. I was able to do it by myself with no issues. It looks great in my rustic themed sitting room.
Are you kidding me?! No instructions!.
I don't even know where to start. If I actually get this thing together I'll let you know if it's any good. Right now it's not any good to me at all.
**update**
Ok, I went to the manufacturer and downloaded the directions. If you're not a total idiot you can put this together. But it can be overwhelming at first. It absolutely took some thought and time. 5-6 hours of thought and time.
And if you don't have a frustrated, hysterical husband putting it together that will help too. I had to at least once talk him out of throwing the whole thing in the dumpster. On more than one occasion you will look at the directions and say "What the heck does that mean?"
But be patient and don't get too happy with the wood glue and you should be fine.
It's a nice unit. A little over priced. 3 stars because thanks to this experience I will never again buy a piece of "assemble it yourself" furniture.
Good luck.
Hardest thing I've ever put together. Most is done with a hex thingy and it's so difficult. One piece came broken, so I'll update my review after I hear back from manufacturer. Looks nice though and seems sturdy enough for what I paid. Just know it's not a piece of cake to assemble and the directions are a guessing game at times.
Very disappointed. Thought it was made of reclaimed wood, as it says. However it also says MDF which 90% of the cabinet. Looks cheap.
