This cabinet looks exactly as it does on the website.  It is the perfect size for my foyer.  If you are looking for a heavy piece, expertly crafted with rich wood grain, you are looking in the wrong price range.  I was planning on swapping the plexi with either mirrors or real glass, but you can not tell it's not real.  I have been looking everywhere and found similar cabinets to this at other stores for up to 4 times what I paid. No scratches or problems putting it together. Very happy with this purchase!
