Bobkona St. Croix Collection Vanity Set with Stool, Cherry

Let me start by saying that I'm really pleased with this vanity. If you've already researched the product and are just looking for a review that confirms what you already suspect, then by all means, place your order. You won't regret this beautiful vanity for such an amazing price.If you're still unsure then let me clarify a few things that I was concerned about before I received my order...First of all, take some measurements to see if this is going to fit into the space you're buying it for. I happened to have a pretty large area to fill for my vanity and I was pleased to see that this is a bit deeper than most vanities that I found. I try not to store too much stuff on top of my vanity because I don't like the cluttered look, but this vanity could hold a ton if you wanted it to, all without even touching the drawer space.The drawers are the things that worried me the most. Like most vanities, these drawers don't pull entirely out, so if you're storing small items loose in the drawers then some of them are absolutely going to roll into the back and be difficult to see. (This didn't concern me too much, it seems like an issue all vanities have). My makeup collection is out of control so I knew there was no chance I'd be able to fit even a portion of my makeup in the drawers, but for the average person you won't have any issue getting all of your makeup (and probably a lot of other things) into the vanity. The top three drawers are pretty shallow. For reference, I can fit my hairbrush in there without any issue but I couldn't stand up a bottle of nail polish or foundation. The bottom two drawers are a bit taller and you'll be able to fit some of those deeper products in there. The drawers pull out smoothly and don't stick at all.The stool is surprisingly sturdy, something I was a little nervous about, and the quality of the fabric seems really nice and durable.Assembly was an absolute breeze. The entire tabletop and drawers section is shipped as one big piece. All you have to do is screw the four legs on and stand the vanity up. The mirror has to be screwed into the back of the vanity so that it stands up and you'll need a screw gun for this step (screws are included). The stool legs get bolted easily into the wood surrounding the cushion. There's an allen key included. The most difficult part for most people will likely be getting it into the house from wherever UPS drops it. The box is as small as it possibly can be, but it's heavy (though not entirely impossible for one person to move alone). UPS had a "team lift" sticker on my box, I'd suggest the same for you).The wood itself is really nice. I wanted something that looked beautiful and wasn't just a wood-like sticker over particle board. I'm sure I'll scratch it eventually but the product was well packaged and arrived without any scratches or dings. I considered getting a glass piece to cover the top to prevent scratching or staining but then realized that the mirror would likely get in the way. I was right, it would have. If you're considering a glass cover then take into consideration the fact that the mirror bumps in about an inch so you won't be able to order the exact size of the table top.I guess that's it. I hope that was helpful. Enjoy your vanity if you decide to get it, I know I will be!

I found a great bargain at a resale shop on a highend dresser for our master bedroom, but the black finish didn't go with the rest of my furniture. I was on the fence as to whether I would paint my existing furniture, or buy new. I saw this vanity on another site for around $400. When I searched 'black vanity set' here on Amazon, I was pretty psyched to see for less than $300, including tax and with Prime shipping. Also, it's wood, not pressed board, which surprised me in this price range. SOLD.It arrived well packaged and in good condition. I didn't opt for any delivery upgrades so the trucking company left it on the porch, but they had handled it properly and there was no damage even to the outside carton.It's HEAVY, so if you don't have someone to help unload, do what I did: open the carton outside and carry it in piece by piece. That's not as daunting as it sounds. The top section is assembled, with the drawers also assembled and in place. You only have to attach the legs to both the stool and vanity and secure the mirror to the vanity. The included hardware was good quality and organized, the instructions were clear. The whole process took around an hour including unboxing.Most importantly, once assembled, it's a great looking piece. They weren't hedging about it being wood. Even the back panel that faces the wall, which I expected to be the heavy tagboard that comes on a lot of flatpack furniture, was wood. The finish is sort a matte satin and the drawer hardware is simple but elegant. The side hinges on the mirror are full piano hinges and are functional. The seat is a perfect height. The three top drawers are the perfect depth for makeup palettes and tubes-deep enough that everything fits, not so deep that it all gets stacked and muddled. The two lower drawers are good for jewelry boxes or bigger jars, or things like sunscreen that wouldn't look pretty sitting out.The size is perfect, as is the design. It's not an overly dainty 'little girl's bedroom' piece, but has a delicate look and doesn't crowd the room. It would probably work in a larger bathroom as well.

I really wanted to be able to leave a 5 star review, but my stool came with one leg missing the threads in one of the holes to secure it in place with the included bolt. This left me with a crooked stool. My husband is going to the hardware store this weekend to try to see if he can buy the threads to insert into the open hole so we can fix the issue (as now one leg bows in). Hoping we can fix it before it snaps out from under the stool. We did not discover this issue until we had already assembled the table and we certainly didn't want to return over a stool leg. I never even bothered to contact the company as I figured they would most likely make me return the whole set based on other reviews I had read on this vanity.But, the table itself is in perfect condition. There was one small chip in the paint, probably due to transit but it was hardly noticeable and near the bottom of the table. I find the drawers fit all of my makeup with no issues and I just love the timeless look of this table. Has a vintage vibe but still fits into my modern bedroom. I did switch the handles as other reviewers had. My kids were enjoying the clicking sound of the included handles way too much! And I also purchased a desk protector to prevent from dealing with makeup stains on the table.It was also a breeze to put together. The whole top is already assembled with the drawers in and everything. All we had to do was screw the legs on and then pre-drill holes and screw the mirror on. Easy peasy. Once my stool is fixed I know I will be absolutely 100 percent please with this set. But I had to remove the one star for the hassle of us having to repair this stool. The quality control obviously needs to be a little tighter on these.
