Finally, something thats as advertised - REAL WOOD, yes, actual wood. The pieces are not only smoothed out on the surfaces, but there are indents (routing) where the supplied L brackets attach. Hardware was spot on and the install was mostly measuring and leveling.
Speaking of levels, while its nice they supply a tiny one in case you dont have one, its cylindrical - it will just roll around on a flat surface. (What genius thought of that?). So use your own (flat) level.
Along with a touch of contact paper as a backdrop, and wow, I am ecstatic. These change the whole ambiance of my tiny bathroom (and sink area). Very, very happy.
For staining, I wanted to go purely natural. I used simple mineral oil for treating / staining (with a hint of dark essential oils). Note: while mineral oil may be clear, it moisturizes and darkens the wood enough to add a nice healthy coloring. Mostly I just hand rubbed it.
Surprisingly Nice Quality - REAL WOOD!
