It is lightweight and I would not leave it out to the weather for any length of time, but for my needs ideal as it sits in my carport with all my fish keeping supplies.  Went together easily and good alignment for the most part with attention to placement of screws.  It is best to have two people, one to hold when alignment is assured.  Someone with clamps and a good work table could do alone, but I am assuming many folks do not have this.  Been on my carport now for two months and still very pleased indeed for the storage space versus the price I paid.
