I paid a little more than I wanted to for this (and now I see the price has dropped a bit, oh well), but its pretty much worth it. Its the only one I could find that checked all the boxes: length, depth, style, drawer, TWO shelves, and no visible assembly holes needing covering with annoying little wooden plugs. The reviews helped quite a lot, and reading a couple that mentioned the no visible assembly holes is what sold me on it.
Arrived well packaged with no damage, and there was an extra piece of each bit of hardware (except for the drawer handles, of course). That is SO helpful, especially when you live in an old house with floor grates.
It took forever to assemble, but the directions were excellent even though they were images, not words. You just need a Phillips screwdriver for most of it, and a regular one for a few bits. Dont use power tools, but a ratcheting screwdriver really helps cut down on hand fatigue.
The finish is true white satin, not glossy or matte. The drawer knobs are great quality, and the drawer works well, though as others have mentioned you do have to put your thumbs against the table when pulling the drawer open. Not a bad thing, it does open easily and slides well.
Im happy with the overall quality and looks of this piece, and I recommend it.
Great quality, exactly what I needed
