Great piece. I get a lot of compliments on this item. I used it to store my DVDs and CDs. The first one came in damaged, and Wayfair reordered for a replacement. The second one came in better shape. It appeared to be particle board. Reasonably easy to damage in transit. It was packaged rather well but could have had more padding on the corners. The item was received with a torn box. The only other thing that I saw was the paint had drip lines and was somewhat spotty. Not super noticeable unless you look for it. Not a deal breaker for me. Overall, very happy with this item.
