I bought the 54 console to place in the middle of my long living/dining room to divide the spaces. I have the drawers facing the dining area so I can keep napkins, etc. in there. It was a splurge but it is solid rubberwood and I wanted something veneer and engineered wood free for this focal piece. When I went to get it from my front porch I could not believe how heavy it was. I am a single older (okay, OLD) but very determined lady so I managed to drag it into the house. I gently turned it onto its top after getting it out of its well-padded box, and attached the legs. The hard part was lifting it into the upright position....get help if you can, though I did manage on my own. It really is an amazing piece, beautifully crafted and something I can see passing down in the family.
Solid and beautiful
