Works great as a sideboard in our dining room in which we store candles and linens.  Love the dark top, cabinets open and close easily, and it's very heavy.  Be aware, however, that is doesn't seem to be made of wood but some sort of light, almost plastic material on the doors (the top is definitely wood).  Would still buy again knowing this, but it does make it feel a little flimsy.  Nevertheless, have received many compliments and requests to know where we got it.
