A friend showed me this when she was looking for an end table. I decided to buy it as well to use for storage for my dogs treats. It's great for that! The only problem I had - which others have stated - was the hinge. I had to bring up the product page on the website to view how it was installed. The directions are not very clear in the photos. I am loving it and my dogs are upset because they can't get in it for their treats!
