Absolutely perfect size for what we needed! Thought the top was glass from pictures... Turns out it is not glass, but that wasn't a deal breaker for me - I was more concerned about the size of the unit. Have had it in high traffic area (with two energetic dogs) for a week and has proved to be strong and sturdy so far. Materials seem to be solid and the unit was easy to put together. Overall quite pleased with the addition to our new entryway!
