    4 hours of glamorous sweat and tears

    I would like to preface this review by saying the overall product far exceeded my expectations. That being said, assembly is not for beginners, is much easier with a second set of hands, and there are a few areas of manufacturing that have room for improvement - hopefully some pointers below will save you some time. Even before unboxing, I knew I was in for the time of my life this package is pretty darn heavy and there are a lot of pieces (some of which were wildly mislabeled). The tracks used to slide the drawer in and out are 4 main pieces of metal - all of which are in the same bag jumbled together. Based on the pictures you can kind of eye out which go where, but all 4 have a specific position that is not interchangeable if you mix them up. I got the top two correct, but later realized they belonged on opposite sides (if its wrong the drawer will fall out because the lip and wheel placement). Next, the 2 screws dont offer resistance to cue when to stop tightening. This is VERY important because if theyre too deep the CAM locks will not click in. I stoped tightening as soon as the black plastic part of the screw neared the white plastic in the board. Its literally impossible to lock if there isnt enough of the screw head to grip. The lightbulbs were a nightmare. The sticker back does not have a tab to peel, and if you use your nail you can pull up the actual adhesive and strip the only thing holding it on the mirror. This was a very small oversight that wouldve cost virtually nothing and saved a lot of time. Also, the bulb wires ran through a hollow screw that served no purpose - it would have been better if the holes were smaller so each bulb could be even. Lastly, there were a handful of scratches and big chips that seemed to have been filled in with permanent marker. Some were not in visible areas, but others (like the one on the base of the mirror itself) were very apparent. Its clear they were aware of the defect as they went out of their way to try to hide it. The bulbs fade nicely if you hold your finger on the touch sensitive switch, and get pretty bright. The tone of the light is on the cooler side which is preferred for make up application and consistency. Overall I give this product five stars, but it is far from perfect. for a mail order item though, the quality was quite nice! I would like to point out the chair is a bit on the petite side and not all that comfortable. The foam material however was more dense than cheap ones I have seen in couches, so I imagine it will last longer. Im incredibly happy with this purchase
