This piece worked well for what we wanted, and is a good price. Finish is glossy black and looks very nice. It was reasonably easy to put together, but some of the holes for the little wooden pegs are not deep enough (or have residual sawdust). When I pushed down on the top while constructing the cabinet, the wooden peg went right through the top, cracking the painted finish. I was able to sand and repaint the area. Be careful with it!
