I want to start by saying overall the product went together perfect, directions were very easy to follow and the overall piece is sturdy.
However, at the last step of attaching the doors the screw heads SNAPPED off. My husband snapped the first two, I thought he was just being too rough so I told him I would do it, and two more SNAPPED. They head just simply twisted off of the body of the screw so easily. I was using as littler force as I could and was trying to be very gentle because I didnt want anymore to break. I have two screws that I didnt even put in all of the way because I was scared they were about to break off too.
This wouldnt be a issue if these werent the screws literally holding the doors on. Im not entirely sure what to do about it since the screw body is stuck in the hole and screws from the hardware store will look different but Im pretty disappointed. For the overall price of the piece and how great quality every other aspect of this piece had, Im disappointed that the finish screws on the front failed.
Im not going to take it apart and send it back since I used wood glue (per instructions) and it would be difficult and time consuming, but Im disappointed this happened.
One downside/ disappointment
