Item is sturdy, but it needs to be packed from factory better
I would have given this item 5 stars IF the factory would of packed the pieces better. The pieces are sturdy and the assembly instructions were helpful. The biggest problem was that when this was shipped, each board was not separated with that thin foam paper or cardboard. So what happened is that many of the pieces end up scratched up like the picture i included with 2 boards. Plus they forgot to label the pieces, so I had to take extra time figuring out which piece is supposed to be part A, B, C, etc. But once I got to assemble the entire thing, I was happy with the results. It does seem pretty sturdy and durable, but the packer or quality control checking how the items are packed will need to be retrained. I would order another one if I ever needed a second one, but I would also need to plan on repainting it.
*As a side note, the picture of the completed unit has stickers that say trash and recycle, which I ordered elsewhere on and do not come with this unit.
