Buffet Hythe

A shame ( after hiring someone to come assemble this half way through we found the two main pieces top and bottom were damaged. The curved ends were broken off. They were originally attached with glue and dowels. I have reached out to Wayfair and they are contacting the manufacturer. I will update this review once I know how this will be resolved.

First package arrived without any visible box damage. However once opened there were critical pieces of the console snapped off making it unbuildable. Several scratches and chips elsewhere as well. Overall just a very cheap product. Second one arrived with lots of visual damage on the box. Same critical pieces snapped off. Once again unbuildable. Very disappointed with this product.

This sideboard is the worst quality furniture I’ve ever received. Not only did the first one arrive damaged and need to be replaced, but the replacement also showed up broken. I still went ahead and assembled it so I could show the flaws more clearly. The material is extremely fragile, and the wood chipped easily during assembly. The corners on both the top and bottom pieces were already falling apart because those pieces arrived damaged at the corners on both units. I would not recommend this sideboard to anyone.

I'm so disappointed with this sideboard. I loved the look and it's just want I wanted for my space. The color is warm and the slight curves soften it. But it was the curved edges that earned this 2 stars. After unpacking the sideboard, I discovered the top and bottom pieces, the ones with the curved edges, were broken off. All 4 of them. Wayfair connected me with the manufacturer that sent me a new one. This time, the top was fine but the bottom piece had one broken curved edge. Again, the manufacturer sent me a 3rd sideboard but it still had broken curved edges. There is something very wrong with either the manufacturing process and/or the packaging for this to occur 3 times! I tried wood glue but struggled to line things up well. The sideboard is together but I'm worried that broken curved piece won't hold. It does support a few screws. If the manufacturer can fix the issue with the curved edges, this could be a really cute piece.

If I could give it zero stars, I would. The first package arrived damaged - the base board had a crack in it that ran across the whole width. We ordered a replacement, which was damaged in the same way, and also had the curved end broken off on one side. It's quite possible other pieces were damaged as well, but we didn't make it that far into the package. It's so unfortunate, because this sideboard fit our needs best, but after two damaged packages, it's not worth trying to get an undamaged package.
