I recently received this item. My review is essentially that it looks fairly nice and doesn't take up that much space, but the quality isn't great. My unit is a little lopsided and tilts to the side a but, basically leaning a little. There isn't enough weight on the bottom to give it any sturdiness.

The assembely wasn't too bad, took me 2 hours but probably can be done in an hour.

Overall, I am not completely dissapointed in my purchase, but would probably not purchase it again knowing what I know now.

We are pleased with the wine rack. My wife put it together in less than an hour. The wood is real -- not fiberboard. You will find it surprisingly heavy even though it isn't very big.

On the top, we've hung six engraved glasses, with a small, round engraved lead vase on the shelf. In the wine slots, we've alternated bottles with memory items (small statuettes and figurines, a toy car and other knick-knacks). In the drawer, we've put wine supplies (openers and such).

Not all do-it-yourself furniture is this attractive, not at this price. As a value, you can't go wrong, and as a practical, yet sophisticated home piece, this is spot-on.

It looks better than expected. We chose it online, and, as with any furniture item bought online, we wondered about reality. Reality? It is a nice addition to our dining area.

I fully recommend the Wine Tower.

It was easy enough to put together. I did it by myself with no help. It just takes several hours to screw everything in. I'm pretty sure I was swearing at the hex nuts half way through. But it's beautiful and elegant and I finally have room for my wine and a place to display my liquor and martini glasses/accessories.

The trick to assembly is not to tighten everything until you get everything into position .. then you tighten the screws.
It took a while, but then I realized all the parts are crafted specifically to fit one another. They are not made assembly line with sloppy fits. So they go together very snuggly if you do it right .. and nothing leans.
The cabinet fits right into the spot where I wanted it to go, and it looks good. I smiled when I put it into place and slid the wine bottles in ... and I make my own wine ... can't stand the stuff they sell and call wine these days.

This product is exceptional for the price. But it does take a little patience to get it together .. and then it's very worth it.

For the price you can't be the style. Very modern clean lines. Mine doesn't lean or anything. I keep it in the corner of my dining space.
