First let me say that I love this little cabinet. It is just right for my use as a small end table with 3 drawers. I bought it because I had just received what appeared to be an identical unit that was quick and easy to assemble and is VERY STURDY. The first one came well packaged and was a cinch to assemble. The label on it identified that it originated in Thailand. This second one was $30 more, but I paid it because I was so pleased with the first one. This second one was less well-packaged, much more awkward to assemble and on careful scrutiny was not as well finished on the top. It looked much the same as the first one once assembled, but was extremely wobbly and after a month of use, it fell apart!! I have repaired it with Gorilla glue and it is finally stable and I still love it, despite the negative experience.
Second Unit Purchased.
