My order from Adena has finally arrived. I have to say that I was really sweating since no one has ordered from them, and there have been problems with other orders from other companies.

But I am happy to say my order is near perfect. Only one metal inset has a tiny amount of warp, and that is hardly noticeable and definitely won't interfere with using it. The botany cabinet is beautiful. I am so thrilled I ordered it. The red and blue lines on the rods match up just about perfectly- no problems there. The cylinders are on backorder, but the company offered to have them express mailed form China (would take about a week) at no charge if I want. Otherwise I should have them in 2-3 weeks. And I even got a free sterling silver necklace as a gift.

Everything looks to be made in China. I wish I could afford to buy top quality everything, but, for the price, I am very pleased with what I got.

Whew! I'm so glad everything was nice Melinda! I'm really glad to hear you like your botany cabinet! I have that on my "as soon as I can scrape it together" list. So it sounds like I need to check Adena as well as some of the others we've ordered from here.

Yay! What a fun weekend you'll have putting things out and together!

Yay! I'm very excited. Those brown stair pieces are solid- whew! The kids will love them. And the metal inset pieces are also nice and solid. I don't think even my two will be able to bend them or damage them. I was kind of worried about that- how thick and sturdy they would be. And now we have a real spindle box
