my husband and I build most of our furniture) but decided to save myself some time and just order it. It came in a long but skinny box probably 6 inches tall, 6 inches wide and 5 feet long. Once I opened the box and started pulling out the wood I realized I had made a mistake. The wood is more like a fake, cheap wood. It wouldnt take much force at all to break a piece over your knee. I was thinking 2x4s but its more like 1/2 inch x 1 inch. You can not touch it because it will lean and Im worried it will just break and fall over. The pieces of wood are not held in place by the screws for some reason so they all twist and move freely. I would stay far away and buy real wood and build your own for sure!
Cheap, fake, stay away
