I just bought this and it arrived put together, with exception of the shelf with easy peasy shelf hangers. I am a 65 year old woman and I had no trouble lifting the box and unloading the carton where I wanted the ble. Its substantial, but not necessarily too heavy. It was packed very well for getting off the door step to the back family room. The color is true to the pictures and nice. It has a good finish on the table . I was a little unsure about the depth of the drink holders but they seem to handle a coffee cup or glass with no problem and its very sturdy. I wasnt quite sure if Id like the electrical outlet drawer or not as I thought I would have to keep it open. I love it! There is a handle opener that also doubles easily as a cord hole so it can remain closed. The outlet drawer also has USB (2) that makes it easy to plug in 3 grounded plugs and 2 USB devices. So far, I tried the USB outlet and it works fine for charging my cell phone .
Cons: If you plug something in from the outlet drawer, you must place the device on top or place into the backside magine rack (like my tablet), but the cord will only go out the top handle. It would have been great to have access from the outlets to either the shelves or the backside where the magines (or tablet in my case) would store when charging. The only option when charging is to have the device sitting on top of the table.
There was a nick in the wood on the front just above the shelves that looks like a dent, but its only mildly annoying and probably would only ever be noticed by a few. Not bad enough to send back. But, why I only gave 4 stars instead 5 for a great looking and functional end table.
Hope this helps!
Very sturdy and good looking.
