Even though each piece is labeled & instructions were clear, this piece takes more than one person plus someone with some strength to build. I would recommended getting some help, but after all the hard work is done it looks really good. I've already received a lot of compliments. Add some wicker baskets in the storage area & it looks even better, it's a functional piece of furniture with lots of space & perfect in my foyer.
Made in China and shows it. You will need to be somewhat handy and innovative to assemble it. I had to remove one guide peg because it was off center. Needed to clean a lot of the screw inserts that had been painted over. The 4 screw inserts for the storage cover all came out so I had to J-B Weld them back in. Looks like they had cheap clue on only one of them. Otherwise it Looks OK after assembled.
I received this with several pieces missing. The company required that I send pictures of the box before they would send the missing pieces. Two weeks later the missing pieces arrived. This unit had been put together before we purchased it. If shipping wasn't so expensive we probably would have sent it back. It went together easy enough. Smaller than we expected but now that it is set up we like it. It's not solid wood. In hindsight, we should have gone to the unfinished furniture store and purchased one like it since this one needs paint!
this was a little smaller than i was expecting although i should have looked at the measurements. my hall tree came in with one of my boards broke. company did offer me a discount since i had put most of it together before noticing. overall it looks good and happy with my purchase.
The piece is NOT a true white if that is what you are looking for. It looks white until you place it by your white woodwork and then it gives that obvious cream tone. We were very disappointed in that for everything we gave in our mudroom is white. Otherwise we love it. Took awhile to put together but manageable
Its a little shorter than I hoped but it fits the space nicely. It took about an hour to put together and looks very nice. Our only issue was the lid piece completely separated from the bench, hardware and all. My husband had to remove the hinges completely and use a strong glue to hold it in place. It works ok but we also had to pad it to keep the lid from slamming now that there are no hinges.

Looks nice but cheaply made. Would not buy again
Exactly what I wanted but difficult to build

Not worth the money

Hard to put together. Not the "stark white" color I wanted
