I had this in my cart for awhile, was hesitant due to some of the reviews, and there were very little reviews for the oval, which is what I purchased. I decided to take a chance and buy them. Some of the reviews did mention the instructions not being very clear, which I felt I only “struggled” with 2 of the steps. I chose to build one at a time, start to finish to work out any kinks if needed, took about an hour to put together the first. Granted I took my time, I would also recommend organizing all of your pieces on the floor and read the instructions start to finish prior to putting it together. The second one I put together in 30 minutes or less.A handful of the reviews show and have complaints of the doorknobs not lining up. I did not have that issue whatsoever.Advice if you purchase this: step 2 should have added to insert 6 letter A’s PRIOR to step 3. Step 3 doesn’t specify which 6 holes to place the letter A’s (there’s a total of 8, same sized holes). I will post a picture and circle the holes in blue that they need to be inserted in, as that was 1 mistake I made but was quickly caught.Step 9: attaching the magnetic pieces to the inside of the doors-do this at step 7, just trust me. Way easier, no risk of feeling like you’re going to snap the door off while holding the door, applying pressure and screwing the piece in.Aside from those 2 very very minimal issues within the instructions, I am really happy with this purchase. The magnets are strong, holds the door shut. I do have a toddler and they’re able to open the doors, they do have to work for it a little bit to get them open! Very easy for an adult to do. The shelves do hold weight pretty well, my child chose to test that out, shelf holds 30oz lbs without breaking. They are heavier than I expected, which is what I wanted. They are much better quality than IKEA furniture, more solid and sturdy.TV on the stand is 55” for reference.I was also worried there was nothing behind the rattan pieces, but it’s actually very sturdy and backed by wood.I chose to not put the backing on for now, due to us using it under the tv, want to be able to access the plugs and have them pushed up flush to the wall.Just buy it already!
