This table works well enough for the cost, but it was delivered in the box with several chips in the individual pieces, and the main reason Im giving this 2 stars is because some of the holes were drilled in the wrong place which leaves you unable to assemble to table. Luckily I have a power drill and was able to drill new holes so I could assemble the table, but it wouldnt have been possible without it.
After assembly it was pretty great! I might have been sweating up a storm trying to screw in some of the smaller screws for the drawer rails, but it turned out great in the end. The black looks lovely. Now I just have to dress it up a bit with a nicer lamp and better lighting.
Assembly was awful! Directions arent helpful at all. Poorly made, holes dont line up well. The drawers arent flush against the table and are uneven. Dont waste your money. This took me 2.5 hours to put together.
Perfect coffee bar! It matches my kitchen cabinets perfectly! The assembly was a bit complicated, but it came out great in the end! I did replace the handles to match my cabinets.
The table is very sturdy and well built. It was fairly easy to put together but make sure to read instructions carefully. I use It for a plant stand and storage in dining room.
Its decent. Itll do the job. The color is nice but it feels flimsy and the drawer on the right doesnt fit (Ive disassembled and reassembled 3 times) By myself it took 2 hours. I was pretty frustrated by the end so Im not taking it down again to return it.
The table came well packaged and undamaged. If you have put together an IKEA product you can put this together. I took my sweet time mainly double and triple checking the instructions as I do not like taking things apart and redoing the work due to an oversight or misreading of the instructions. Everything went together as indicated in the instruction manual. My main suggestion would be to use a good 2 phillips screwdriver. Don't use your old screwdriver that you keep in the bottom of the drawer. There are screws of various sizes and torque requirements, but the 2 will fit them all and you need a good tip to apply nice even pressure so you don't blow out the pressed board holes or slip out of the screw heads and scratch the surface. Which brings up the main shortcoming of this product. The painted finish is easily chipped. The edges showed signs of chipping which I covered up using a black sharpie. I also applied a nice coat of Minwax furniture polish to try to protect that surface. Otherwise, the piece is solid and heavy for its size. It feels very sturdy and I am happy with this for the price I paid.
Not worth the money. Finish is full of flaws, has runs and nicks. I have purchased a lot of build it yourself furniture this is without a doubt the worst quality I have seen. Will probably wind up in my shed.

Unable to assemble if you dont have your own drill to correct hole placement

The smaller screws were a challenge but it turned out great in the end
