Nice, sturdy piece . . . once you get it together
This boxed item and some of it's pieces are quite heavy, for safety purposes, two people should move the box and put it together. I did all by myself (way too experienced in putting furniture together). Took me a little over an hour to put together, just to reiterate, by myself, so would've been faster with two individuals. The packing material is absolutely hideous, cheap Styrofoam packing was all over the house and very unpleasant to clean up! I literally spent more time vacuuming up Styrofoam than putting the item together.
Once together, it is very sturdy and has a nice look to it, doesn't look cheap but not sure it's worth the $450-$500 price tag!
I was highly upset with one big issue though, the description clearly states that the piece comes with a "jail padlock & key", mine was nowhere to be found and I'm pretty sure it doesn't come with the lock ever as it's not listed in the packing materials or shown in any of the accompanying instructions & illustrations. Truly, the padlock was a deciding factor for me as I wanted to keep the teenagers and twenty-somethings in my house out of our wine! The Master padlock I have on it looks horrible!!!
