Looked at a lot of the reviews before I bought this and I have to admit I was nervous just going off the reviews but I liked the look so I went for it and I’m very happy with my purchase!
To be honest I was very frustrated with the assembly directions in that the pieces of wood did not come labeled and the instructions were very poor. For example, looking at all the reviewers who posted pictures only one person actually assembled it correctly (Zohrab Brogan). This is because the instructions are so poor!! Everyone else’s pictures (Majed, El CTdesign, Sydney Tenenbaum, D Rogers) all put the bottom piece of wood on wrong.
Please refer to my final picture uploaded from manufacturers website and all my pictures for correct depiction of assembly.
I would also recommend that you seriously consider hiring a professional mounting company like I did because after reading all of the reviews it became apparent that additional brackets/ mounting materials were needed for some and could be needed for my installation as well.
I have a small dog that loves to lie under and did not want to worry about it falling off the wall and hurting her. So I went ahead and hired the aforementioned professional mounting company. This way if we ran into any problems they would have the materials on hand to fix/troubleshoot if need be to ensure stability.
However, I am happy to report that no additional mounting materials were required. In addition, 6 screws come for the installation wall bracket but I only had 4 studs behind the wall bracket (so only mounted with four screws) and I think it looks great.
The only thing I plan on doing is using some white caulking to fill in the 3mm gap you can see in the one picture from the side so that the floating wall unit looks completely flush with the wall.
Nice sleek modern design
