DIFFICULT CONSTRUCTION / once youre past that hurdle, its great.
The worst part of my experience was trying to assemble it. This is definitely a two/person job. The directions do not mention a VERY important detail: do not tighten things too much as you go along or other pieces will not fit, loosely screw things in till the end, then tighten. I spent two days (one afternoon trying to do it myself, failing, contemplating returning it, then taking a break / another afternoon with a second person figuring out how to assemble it so the pieces actually fit together). We did call the manufacturer and got help, so that was good. Without calling I dont think we would have figured it out, but definitely not easy construction in my opinion. Otherwise, this product was very good. Its quiet, sturdy, and looks great. Its a bit low to the ground, but otherwise I dont have any problems with it. This item is good! Satisfied.
