The custom fasteners they have to hold things together is terrible. Some people here said they were easy, but mine they were very tough to press closed (I'm a pretty big guy). With the amount of screws you have to drive in anyways, they should have just drilled pocket holes and used screws to hold everything together.
Those custom fasteners are also what holds the top to the base, and makes the top a structural component. So if you're thinking of replacing the top with something nicer, it'll take a little bit of work.
The top is also undersized and/or too close to the cupboard doors on the front. There's no room to scrape crumbs off and catch them without opening the cupboards.
The cupboard doors should have had the knobs installed on the top, not the middle. The magnets holding it closed are at the top anyways, and it's less convenient to bend over farther to open the door when you only need to retrieve something from the top shelf.
The drawer slides are sloppy, but you can't expect much for this price level.
Could Use Some Improvements
