While the design of this wooden cabinet is visually appealing, I’m somewhat disappointed with its quality. The cabinet feels quite fragile and lightly made. The original item I received appeared to have been mistreated during shipping. The box arrived with clear signs of being patched up with tape, and there was damage to the contents as well, likely from a hit or fall. However, Wayfair was responsive and cooperative. Despite the item's fragile build, I liked the design enough to request a replacement rather than a refund. Unfortunately, when the replacement item arrived, it had similar damage—this time to the rear right corner—although the damage was less noticeable than before. The vertical slats were intact, but one of the feet had a splinter of wood partially detached. There was also a sticker inside the cabinet that left adhesive behind. Overall, while I appreciate the rustic, farmhouse aesthetic of the cabinet, I still feel it should be better constructed for the price. Note: I also received a glass coffee table that was very well packaged, double boxed with foam packing and the box clearly marked FRAGILE. The sideboard should have been similarly packaged BUT WAS NOT and so arrived damaged TWO times.

Great purchase. The only assembly was to put the legs on. Literally less than 10 minutes to complete. I read all the reviews. The negative ones scared me. But I wanted it anyway. The cabinet was packaged so well it took me quite a while to unpack. The downside is, yes, it’s darker than I thought it would be. This was well worth what I paid. Yay WAYFAIR!

Damaged

This stand was so beautiful but unfortunately I have to return due to the item being damaged upon arrival. Several corners were damaged and I was okay to overlook it until I saw this part. So sad to have to return.

This is not what I expected. I do not enjoy returning things. I like to buy something and move on to the next project. It seems the manufacturer ran out of wood and chose to build the sideboard with a different wood color. That is deceitful! I pay for someone to put it together and even the guy asked me why was it so different from the website picture. What was correct? The measurements. See the picture below.
