After seeing this during a home tour in Palm Springs during midcentury week, my wife had to have it I lucked out and bought the last one!
Pros
The look of the entire sideboard is beautiful and I gave in to the gold trim as Iâ not a fan of gold, but this is a nice a matte color. The size, we downgraded from a massive 75â china cabinet that had tons of storage and took up almost an entire wall, this having the three drawers and shelves was a plus. The customer service response after reporting issues. The item shipped assembled!
Cons
I donât think what we paid for was worth the purchase after I received and inspected the unit I was not that impressed with the craftsmanship. The handles have white overspray, who spray colors with handles on They should be sprayed before they screw then on! The handles were chipped I requested two new handles to be sent, but one of the replacements was worse than the original see pictures. The bottom shelf of the sideboard has chunks of debris that werenât cleaned out (pictured) and it was painted over and they dried with the paint, if I attempt to remove Iâll chip chunks off, but good thing they are towards the back and wonât be visible once we close doors.
If I could give 3.5 stars I would. Donât get me wrong I love the look and what it will do for our newly renovated house when it comes to decor, but the craftsmanship of the piece and what I was charged is what Iâm not happy with, plus the issue with the replacement part, how do you send me one thatâs worse! I guess this is what happens when things are now put together in Vietnam and not China due to import fees. I donât want to discourage you from buying, but I want to prepare you for what could happen and hope you have a different experience.
