Home furniture - a mixed bag

Bottom line: the "made in India" furniture is good, sturdy and beautiful though you'll need help to build the larger items because of weight; the made in China ones are flimsy and unreliable, worse than cheaper alternatives.

I bought six pieces of furniture from structube - a bed, two night stands, a dining set, a side table and a bookcase. All but the bookcase are made of strong materials. Putting them together was easy, but I needed help with some of the larger ones simply because they were so very heavy - just flipping over that table after putting in the legs proved too much for one person.

The bookcase we bought last, and it has soured our experience. The materials are much flimsier, despite still being a very heavy item overall. There was slight damage to some of the shelves upon delivery, and putting it together the screw-fasteners were so poorly made that a couple actually broke with just a little pressure from a hand hend screwdriver. Needless to say, the box didn't include any spares for those or any other item.
Wheb we went to the store to complain they said it's a known problem, but they don't seem to actually care to resolve it in any way.
