They would have (and hopefully will be) fine once replaced. The finish is great. The style and look is just as it looks in the pictures on the website. Unfortunately they were damaged at some point in transit. I have the FedEx driver on video delivering them and it doesn't look as though he did anything to cause this so it must have been earlier in the process like at the warehouse.

Piece of junk Looks like this when. I open the box.

DO NOT BUY THIS NIGHTSTAND. I ordered this nightstand and have dealt with two weeks of calls with customer service (who are lovely) getting replacements sent because they continue to come broken. After the second broken nightstand was delivered, I was told that a ticket would be placed with the supplier and that they would take additional steps to protect the order and have them inspect it. But of course, the third one was delivered even more broken than the first two. It is honestly a shame that after 4 tries, they could not get me a single nightstand that wasn't totally damaged. Chipped wood, bent metal frame, missing and loose screws, and broken tracts. It's a joke and now I have 4 broken 70lb nightstands in my house. They are heavy and difficult to get up and down stairs, and now I will have to do that 4 times. I spent at least an hour with customer service who assured me that they could get me these without damage. Very very frustrating. DO NOT ORDER.

Fantastic, solidly-made piece! Bigger than I expected but thats on me not checking dimensions

Now, this piece is sturdy. It's a little larger than what we expected, and we are pleasantly surprised. I can understand why this item is at this price point after having it in my home. The bottom drawer does not have a handle, but it does have a divet at the bottom where one's hand can reach and pull out the drawer. The top has a lip at the back that can catch anything from falling over-- a genius idea for those like myself who tend to knock things over.
