Dowels Ruin It: End Tables

I don't expect a fabulous piece of furniture to be less than $15, but overall it was as good as I expected EXCEPT the wooden dowels are flimsy and break easily. Misaligning the holes will also crush and break the dowels. In the end I had to pick one of them out with the tip of a knife. Oh, and just as easily as they screw up when they do, you're on your own. You will not receive any additional benefits. I only docked the stars for ease of assembly and strength because those dowels are such junk. Eventually I gave up and replaced them with pieces cut from a bamboo dowel I had laying around. The dowel I used was a disposable item made just for packing the fake flowers so they wouldn't get crushed in transit and it was still a lot stronger than the little pieces of wood they give you to hold that bedside table together . I'm not saying don't buy this, it might be good value for what you're getting, but if you do be prepared to replace those dowels.

Pros
  • Sturdy Finish
Cons
  • Modern
