Review on Antique White Hall Tree with Storage Bench by Bush Furniture Salinas by Arturo Reyes

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Cute! But tricky to assemble

Fasten your tool belts! 4 stars only because it's so affordable and very cute, but be ready to be challenged! It's not easy to assemble. I read other people's reviews saying this and shrugged and figured I could handle that just fine because I have so much IKEA furniture in my belt and the reviewers before me must be picky wimps. Oh boy - big surprise! It's like increasing the difficulty from a small IKEA street fight to a small boss fight (which you may not have fully upgraded for yet). Of course I did it, so it's not "impossible", but damn it, I wanted to give up. I assembled it myself but definitely needed the help of a power tool to do it (turning everything by hand would have been an ordeal). And cheer up! There are no pre-drilled holes to attach the top and bottom pieces, so I drilled holes for the first time in my life! It's kind of fused now but quite wobbly because one of the screws just wouldn't tighten and I ended up sanding it so hard I couldn't put it further or put it back in.

Pros
  • 4 open shoe compartments and hallway organization with plenty of room for bags or clothes
Cons
  • So far, so good
