I love how it looks and I have gotten a lot of compliments on the look.  However, it is not for heavy duty use.  If you need it to file some stuff away, it's fine.  If you run a business with heavy folders, it's not up to that.  Also, the top scratches easily and it is white under the finish and is high contrast. Probably not a problem for light use but I have been filing them in with brown and black ink.
