This is a great cabinet.  The finish has a nice durable shine. We bought the red, which is a nice deep color and beautifully matches the other reds in the room.  It is extremely heavy duty and we had no doubts about the cabinets ability to hold the flat screen TV we placed on top.   All in all, it was an easy piece to put together.  The  only issue (and this is just personal preference) is the legs, which do  not match our furniture style.  That was easily fixed though.  We left off the legs and added furniture glides instead,  which lift the cabinet off of the floor a bit and still give it a very nice appearance.  We are very satisfied and would definitely buy it again. .
