The quality of this table exceeded my expectations. Mine was pretty much all real wood, very sturdy. It was less work to assemble than I thought it would be, because the top comes fully assembled (meaning the drawers are already done). All you have to do is put on the legs and the bottom shelf. It should only take 20/30 minutes.
Mine took longer because I had to raise up the bottom shelf / which I knew when I picked it out. I used this item in a hallway to help cover an old heater vent that is no longer used. I live in a really old house and the original heating vents are still there, even though the system has been upgraded. The old vents are built into the floor and wall, and its easy to stub a toe on them. So my solution was to put this table over it. I specifically needed something narrow and about 60 wide, and I wanted some drawers. So the selection was limited. I was expecting the bottom shelf to be some sort of lightweight, MDF type thing. So I thought it would be easy to raise with just simple brackets. Because the shelf is actual wood, and it is about 2 thick, it is heavy, and the notches on the leg help support that weight. It was more work to raise up the shelf, but totally worth it. You cant really notice the change unless you get on the floor to look at it so I am very happy with this.
I was so surprised by the quality, I love this item. Love the color too!
Solid!
