It will work great for what we want and it has the storage I want and the ability to hide cords from several items. However, if you want a piece of furniture that will last the lifetime of kids, this is not it. It's very sturdy and heavy but I don't think there is an ounce of real wood in it. That's fine with us. We are minimalists and do not like large, bulky 100% wood furniture anymore. We've downsized and have a small house and do not want furniture that takes up the entire room. If that's what you want, then this is not for you. It fits our modern look and takes up minimal space but still has the storage we need.
