I needed something i could use in my dining room that would tie it to the kitchen and living because i have an open floor space and this was perfect. It belongs as part of the dining but also as part of living/kitchen. It doesn't feel like an odd piece of furniture that doesn't belong with the three spaces. I love the wine storage, which is what i was needing. Most wine storage cabinets are soo expensive and offer no flexibility but this one delivered. It also looks just like the picture, even better actually. I cant wait to purchase the matching table to go with it
