We purchased three. The end tables are extremely well built and easy to assemble. The drawer operates easily and is of high quality and extends almost all the way out. However, the finish is not consistent on the legs. It's packaged well, although there are a few nicks. All in all, it appears to be of good quality even if it was made in China.
Well worth the money IMO. Clean and functional. Shipped well-packed - no damage on arrival.
I decided to glue mine together after initial assembly. The stock quick-latching screws work fine, but leave a bit of play and allow the unit to rack slightly. Re-assembling with TiteBond wood glue on all dowels/butt-joints and a few wood-clamps took care of that problem in a few short hours! This nightstand is very solid after some glue
At this price, you aren't going to get nice ball-bearing drawer slides and such - just wood-on-wood sliding. The drawers fit snugly into the 3 separate openings, and have a little wooden dowel to prevent the drawer from pulling all the way out (easily removed if you need to remove the drawer). When closed, they center perfectly in the openings. There is some play/slop/droop when opening the drawers, but again - to be expected at this affordable price point.
As mentioned elsewhere - the back is completely finished. This unit looks nice from any angle - even from behind!
As long as the slight racking (or gluing together instead) and play/droop in the drawers is acceptable, this is a nice and cheap night-stand that I can recommend to budget-minded consumers. If you need ball-bearing drawer slides and solid wood, expect to pay 4x as much (or more).
Fairly decent when put together. Oh but wait, I can't put one of the drawers on because the knob that goes to the last drawer is stripped. Hoping I can get a replacement knob. If it weren't for that I'd give it a 4, it looks really nice aside from the obvious.
Arrived earlier than expected, beautiful and solid, assembled easily by myself with no problem but a little bit expensive. Over-all, I highly recommend it.
I bought this table to replace a wicker table and a TV folding table I had next to my easy chair. I like the fact that it has a drawer to store my unused remote units. The drawer has a metal slider which allows you to open the drawer fully to its full length without falling out.The bottom shelf is also convenient to keep infrequently used items. I would have given this item 5 stars, but the unit arrived with no hardware (12 each bolts, flat washers, and lock washers) for mounting the legs and bottom shelf. Also the box appeared that it was previously opened and repackaged. I did not find any damaged to the wooden items which include the table top/drawer unit, bottom shelf, and four legs. Rather go through the hassle of sending the unit back, I determined the hardware (which is standard) that was needed and purchased it from a home improvement store. The bolts mount at a 45-degree angle through holes in the four corners of the table top and bottom shelf. The legs have pre-installed threaded metal inserts to accept the bolts. Two bolts mount in each corner at the top table unit and one bolt for each corner of the bottom shelf (12 total). I spray painted the hardware with black paint, even though you probably can't see it anyway. Also the bottom shelf was a little tricky to get the bolts to align up, but I managed to get it done. The hardware needed is 12 each 1/4 x 20 X 2 bolts or screws, 12 each 1/4 flat washers, and 12 each 1/4 lock washers.

I'm revising my review and upgrading this unit to 5 stars. While I was cutting the box up that the table came in and placing the cardboard in the recycle can, I found the missing hardware in a red bag that was taped underneath one of the cardboard flaps. So the missing hardware wasn't missing after all; just concealed where it wasn't easily visible. Since I already put the table together, I put the bag in the drawer of the table.
I ordered 2 for a bedroom. Both went together quite easily and all the hardware was there. Item was very well packaged. For assembly I found it easiest to label all the wood parts with blue painters tape and a sharpie after doing inventory.

Good value for the price - Gluing together adds solidity

Nice table for a reasonable price.
