I purchased this as a matching piece to my coffee table.  Its very attractive, strong, and stable.  I really like the glass shelves, and the shelf height is ample enough for most books, including oversized music books. I was only slightly disappointed with the finish. There are striations in the paint finish that are not on my coffee table. Fortunately they are not seen until you are close up.  I found the item in January 2021 and waited until Sept. for it to arrive back in stock, so after that amount of time, I'm not returning it despite my minor disappointment with the finish.
