it's not an expensive cabinet.  materials are similar to a cabinet you'd purchase at Target. It's a good quality lower end piece of furniture.  The magnets that hold the doors closed were not aligned on my piece so we removed the ones on the bottom.  the doors still bend slightly when it pulls open but the cabinet serves its purpose.  we don't wear shoes in the house and it keeps my husband's work shoes out of sight. moderately easy to assemble. it did it in less than an hour on my own.
