I read many reviews on this item, and the only glitch, it seems, is interpretation of the directions! Do not hesitate to purchase this item. The trick is to lay the pieces on the floor positioned as in the directions. We found that there was one error in the production of one panel. There is a set of 3 holes that should have been drilled on the opposite side of the panel that holds the wine rack. The good news is that the assembly is still operable without the use of these holes(they appear to stabilize the wine rack on one side). Continue assembling the item. The wine rack will stabilize with the weight of the wine bottles. We love this credenza, we love Great Offer Stock for fast delivery, we love no sales tax, and no shipping charges. You better buy this item soon, because the government is fast making preparations to force Great Offer Stock to charge sales tax and shipping charges. Dahhhhhh? What's new!
