The wood is nicely finished, pretty. However, the workers were smoking something when they were drilling the mounting holes. The pre-drilled holes for the back braces were a good two inches off. Impossible to use them. Those braces are now in the trash. The pre-drilled holes for the top self were off by 1/4 inch. I had to force the screws, which was not easy because of the design and lack of room to get the wrench at any angle with leverage.
Fortunately, I have no plan for anything heavy going on the shelves, so I just continued on with assembly. The unit does look good. Since it would cost almost as much to return, Ill just use as is.
Finish is Nice, Fit is a joke
