What can I say? I'm a girl at heart... and I've always wanted a vanity. I research my furniture (and anything I buy that I need to sink a fair bit of money into really), as I've learned at age 50, that paying a bit more for quality goods is worth it in the long run. No throw away family here! I've definitely broken that cycle with this line of furniture. I've ordered every piece of this bedroom set I can fit in my bedroom. That includes two dressers, a nightstand, the bench, and this vanity. I am in love with the style and quality. Each piece came fully assembled except needing to put the legs on a few of this and the bench. Each piece is real wood, solid and sturdy. The color is beautiful and I love the simple style. It took me a long time to find a loving room furniture set, a dining set, and a bedroom setthat was reasonably priced yet not pressed wood and veneer. This set is a win! The only thing I wish is that the drawers slid out farther, and I "may," add gold hardware to flash them up a bit in future. For now the hardware matches my bronze metal bed and ties in great. Love it!
