This was difficult to put together as some of the threads for the bolts were not placed straight but at a slight angle. One of the supporting pieces of wood was so bowed the bolt wasnt long enough to reach through without us putting a ton of pressure on the piece to make it lie flat and we could hear it cracking. Also the Allen wrench that came with this was misshapen at the long end making it useless for reaching into the recessed areas to tighten the bolts. We had to go purchase an Allen wrench to make this work. Once put together, it looks nice but this was way too shoddily constructed for the price.
