First, lets get this out of the way. When one buys an inexpensive, build/it/at/home piece of furniture that features material/covered cardboard drawers, one should not expect rock/solid luxury.
That said, I think this night table is well worth the money, looks nice and is more convenient than many typical 1 or 2 drawer night tables.
The two open shelves are very useful, especially if you use a (as I do). As the picture shows, the lower shelf provides an ideal spot for my machine, keeping it at sleep level and close to the bed. Because of this extra shelf, I have plenty of room on the top for another piece of equipment and plenty of space for a table lamp, remote controls, phone, glasses, a drink and other stuff I like to keep convenient by my bed.
The three drawers also allow for more convenience and better organization.
Finally, the adjustable feet allow the unit to rest firmly on slightly uneven floors.
However, given the price and construction materials, there are a few expected drawbacks.
First, aside from limited weight capacity (its not made for a book collection), the slide/out drawers cannot self/support when open beyond maybe 6 inches. They will fall out if pulled out further and not held onto.
Second, one must be careful not to overtighten the screws while assembling. If you try to tighten them to the point where they will not turn anymore, you will likely either bend the metal frames or split or raise bumps on the wooden shelves.
Overall, a very versatile, decent looking night table that isnt designed for abuse. And it took maybe 20 minutes to assemble, while also watching TV. Very functional.
