Not bad - not great - just ok. LONG assembly time - 3.5 hours and I am good at building things. It should be cheaper for the quality. First off it goes together with those cam locks. I think those things are pretty terrible and don't really get a nice tight fit in all the joints. I live in the tropics so those are going to rust out for sure. If I can get three years out if this I will be happy. It cost an extra $$ for freight forwarding to the VI. Lots of parts - comes in three boxes. Assembly isn't hard at all but really time consuming. The instructions are clear BUT they failed to mention on one step a small detail. That detail resulted in me having to disassemble the top and the side to rotate the two pieces between the drawers. Unfortunately when you disassemble - it never fits just right. So those pieces are a little wobbly - luckily it doesn't effect the drawers. The color is really close to the photos - maybe a tad darker. Its not solid pieces of wood - its like 3 inch wide pieces glue together. You can see the joints that looks like teeth. I actually kind of like that - looks more MCM. My right door want sit correct - a little off and can't seem to get it perfectly straight. Minor. I think this needs to be in the $$$ range. It wont be an heirloom piece but its good looking and pretty sturdy - love the legs of course. I guess compared with other MCM pieces its a good value. I am using mine as a TV stand. I chose this over the TV stand as we have a 32" TV and it would have been too low with the Tessuto tv stand. Its really about 3 inches too tall to be the right height for a TV stand but I like it bette than looking towards the floor. Its a decent buy.
After the Tessuto Tobacco 70-inch entertainment center was assembled I decided to get the Tessuto Buffet. Both pieces reflect a mid-century style that I love. Instructions were easy enough. All the parts and hardware fit just right. I am pleased with both the Tessuto Entertainment Center and the Tessuto Buffet. They compliment the rooms uniquely.
This is a nice piece of furniture. I'm using it in a guest room for office supplies. The drawers are not very deep. The color is like a dark walnut. I had to contact Customer Service twice because the carrier was damaging the cartons (and parts) in transit. The directions are clear and easy to follow. I was able to assemble it myself. The doors are a challenge to align but with patience it is possible with the adjustable hinges. However, the holes on the left support side piece are pre-drilled an 1/8 of inch deeper than the support side attached to the right door. When viewing the piece from the side it is clear that one door is closer to the front trim than the left door. Because I ending up receiving these parts three times (because of the damage) they were all drilled this way so I assume it's not a manufacturing defect but a design flaw. The style is great and the shelves are deep and can hold a lot. Aesthetically this piece is a 5, because of the drawer depth the functionality is a 3.
A beautiful, high quality piece that looks very high end. Seems like it will be durable as well.
We purchased this buffet to go with the FOA Morottia dinning set we had ordered. It matches beautifully; it was easy to assemble. This piece is very spacious, beautifully finished, the doors match, and the drawers do not rattle. I highly recommend this piece especially if you have a smaller room...very pleased!!
This piece is just beautiful. Very sturdy and looks high end. Assembly was exhausting. If I ever see another "Screw - Type A" again it will be too soon. As other reviewers mentioned the assembly is very time consuming (took about 3 1/2 hours) and there were a few packages of hardware that were miss labeled and at least two steps in the instructions that were not accurate. If you look at the pictures and compare to the real part you can figure it out. All that being said, having SO many screws makes for a very sturdy and well made piece furniture. I highly recommend this item. Very happy. Only gave four stars due to the mistakes in instructions and labeling of parts.
I was impressed how well this item was packaged for shipping. It was downhill from there. I got to step 7 of 16 (directions are 9 pgs) and one of the legs was missing an insert. I contacted Overstock and was told they would get back to me in 2 days. That was 7 days ago. In the meantime I started working on step 9 and found there were no designated screw holes for the hinges. During step 10 one of the dowels broke. I've been to 3 hardware stores and no one carries them in metric sizes. So for the last 6 days it's been piled up in the floor. THERE IS NO REPACKING THIS MANY PARTS BACK INTO 3 BOXES FOR RETURN, not to mention the 3-4 hrs I've put into it and that's not including running around trying to find replacement pieces and hardware. Extremely disappointed and frustrated that now I'm stuck with it and I'm out that much money. What am I supposed to do with it now?!
I loved this buffet table. It came almost completely assembles. We just had to put the legs on! It matched and works very well with the Carson Carrington "TESSUTO" Tobacco finish pieces. I totally love the collection. There was absolutely no damage whatsoever, even though the corner of the box was crushed. Everything is very well packed with REAL STYRO-FOAM Not the *** that just crumbles apart the second you touch it while flying everywhere. It is a beautiful piece of furniture. I do wish the legs were a little longer{ on all the other pieces} like they are with the Carson Carrington "Tessuto 4 drawer sofa table" It is a great value and you can beat the price. I am actually using this piece for a dresser. I purchased a reclaimed rectangular wood mirror from. I hung it and let it drop down almost in a diamond shape I am decorating my room in a mid century modern décor with a twist.{ rustic cabin wildlife, deer antler chandelier etc. it looks really good{ in my opinion and that's all that matters and really counts at the end of the day, right lol I will take some photos and upload soon, If the site allows me to go back and do that, once I have everything where I want it.
I'm just crazy for this and honestly, I enjoyed putting it together. I'm a 64 yr. old woman and I only needed help in lifting it onto the legs when it was almost complete. The directions were simple and direct, easy...and all the screws, bolts, magnets were easily identified and noted on their bags. Don't be nervous about putting this together...just couldn't be easier.
The buffet arrived very quickly, packed incredibly well in three separate boxes. I had read the previous reviews so I knew I was in for a project. Assembly took about three hours and I was able to do it myself (I'm a medium sized woman). Yes, it's time consuming but the instructions and planning were exceptionally well organized and all pieces were properly labeled and drilled. The final piece looks just like the picture and is heavy, solid, functional and quite beautiful. If you have the space, time and ability to assemble a rather complex piece of furniture, you can't beat the look and quality for the price.
This buffet works perfectly as an entertainment center/tv stand in our living room. We were able to use the drawers to store gaming systems and the cabinet shelves are adjustable, which is great so we were able to store our records and record player there. It looks so high quality, and, although it takes time to assemble, the instructions were clear and it came together really nicely. Really pleased!
As the other reviews infer, there are many parts to this beautiful piece. However, if you take the time to read the instructions carefully and organise all the parts prior to assembling, it is more time consuming than it is difficult to put together. In fact, I found the buffet was easier to assemble than the Tessuto nightstand in this collection. I am using this as a bedroom dresser and so far, it is working swimmingly!
I am totally pleased with this buffet. It is beautiful, solid, not cheep-looking; it has a warm brown stain, and although some of it is probably manufactured wood, it is real wood, not fake wood-grain melamine. Yes, it takes a few hours to put together (i suggest you plan to assemble it over two or three sessions, just to avoid getting tired and making a mistake). The instructions and drawings are very clear; the hardware items are individually packaged. The wood pieces are engineered better than any other such kit I have ever worked on. The only area for improvement is that there should be pilot holes drilled for the screws to hold the hinges in place.There should also be a list of the tools you will need. Here is my list: 1. Phillips head screwdrivers: an average length one and a short-handled one. 2. Hammer 3. Mallet 4. Block of wood to place over the wood parts when using the mallet to drive the doweled pieces together. You don't want to mar the wood. 5. Light source, such as a headlamp, would be helpful. 6. Another person to keep you company and to help turn the piece over when you need to screw the bottom to the middle section. Also, kudos to Overstock. This item was delivered in less than 48 hours.

We love this piece. It feels very high quality. Some people complained of assembly but really it is mail order furniture, we expect that. We love the quality and finish of this item. Highly recommended.
I'm always hesitant to purchase big furniture online when I can't touch it and evaluate the materials, but I wasn't extremely pleased with this piece. It is not flimsy or cheap, and even my carpenter hobbyist husband was impressed with the materials. It's a beautiful piece, and we're currently using it to store all our wine, liquor, and bar glassware. The only small con is that the top had a minor scratch on it, but we're just telling people it's "distressing." It does take several hours to put together (over 100 pieces!), but the result was totally worth it. I would definitely recommend this buffet -- it's worth every penny!
Sure, it takes a while to assemble, but everything feels very high quality and stands up in appearance to other furniture we have that is much more expensive. Design is great, from the drawer panels to the legs. The only thing I'd wish for is slightly better quality rails for the drawers -- they work perfectly fine but have a cheap-ish sound when closing. But again, value is very high for this piece, and it's got a unique look.
I was a little nervous when I bought this piece because there is nothing in the description that says it can be used as a TV stand. So I was worried it wouldn't have cutouts for cords in the back. However, when I opened the boxes I was pleasantly surprised to find 2 cutouts on the side with the 2 doors. This works perfectly underneath my new 65" TV and I can store my electronics underneath and has plenty of extra room for board games and blankets. It does take a few hours to put together, but it is a great solid, heavy piece and the instructions are easy to follow.
This buffet arrived on time based on the estimated shipping, and after assembly the item is absolutely gorgeous, just as pictured. The only thing to be cautious about is the amount of assembly--I know some items from Overstock arrive partially assembled--this does NOT. You have to put together the drawers and every little piece. It is nice, though, that a non-tipping kit is included. Really happy with the look of this item, but consider alternates if you want to avoid lots of assembly.
I am loving this new Buffet! Our new apartment theme is Midcentury, and I wanted a piece I could use as a cocktail bar, and this was the perfect match for my needs. Number 1, the quality is fantastic. Real wood, great hardware! 2, with 1 capable person who can read instructions and another who is good with a screwdriver, this piece was no problem to assemble. I would give yourself about 2 hours min to assemble, which I think is realistic considering the cost savings and number of pieces. The piece is real rubber tree wood, with veneer. Great quality, very sturdy piece, with a gorgeous finish. The item came in 3 boxes, and unfortunately 2 of the pieces were damaged. No worries, Overstock sent me those 2 new pieces within 2-3 days and so it was a non-issue for us. Their customer support is top notch! I can easily give this 5 stars. Great quality, beautiful piece, functions very well, easy instructions, and amazing customer services.
