Great looks, not a great build

This product comes with a lot of screws but they require an Allen key. A normal screwdriver was included in the scope of delivery, which had nothing to do with these screws. Unfortunately I didn't have allen keys with me so it was a big pain. In addition, many of the screws were very difficult to screw in. I ended up drilling the holes a bit wider to make them work easier because I couldn't get them all the way in. The end result was mediocre in terms of stability. but very nice looking wood and design. Also, double-triple check the alignment of the boards before attaching them to each other. I checked 3 times and still got it wrong (the only clue as to the orientation of the last board coming from behind was a tiny hole at the very top). There are no words in the instructions (just pictures) and if you turn a piece backwards or upside down it will fit perfectly for that particular step but then won't attach to the next piece.

Pros
  • Brilliantly made
Cons
  • disappears
