Advantages: Nice country style
Disadvantages: Very poor quality and misleading information in both paper and on-line brochures
Very shoddy quality. Despite saying the item is finished in cream paint, it is in fact completely unfinished 'raw' wood inside. This includes inside the doors and the sides of the drawers. Even the top of the front of the drawers is only half painted as are the edges and the tops of the doors.
This should be made clear in the product description and photographs in the catalogue.
In addition, whilst the product may be made of solid pine, it is of a similar quality to a packing case.
My item arrived damaged. Some of the damage probably occurred in transit but the splits to the sides of the drawers must have been there before shipping.
This item was purchased to match a bookcase from the same range which was purchased a couple of years ago. The quality of the two items is entirely different as the bookcase is painted on all but the reverse of the back.
A nice style but very disappointing quality and not good value.
Summary: Very disappointing
