We have been changing our dining room from dark to light...got rid of our big, dark china cabinet and server and replaced it with this beautiful piece. All the china that was stored and displayed in our old china cabinet fits with room leftover, and with the glass doors, you can still see it. It is higher than it looks in the pictures, which was a great plus for us. It really makes a statement. It arrived fully assembled except for the legs which the delivery man put on for us outside. It was out of stock for a time, but it is so worth the wait!!
