Very sturdy, heavy and beautiful. Its not your typical flimsy storage cabinet you get from.big box stores. Its very nice and large. Photos with candle and cup hopefully show the size and depth. I may purchase another one. It was easy to put together. It took me two evenings but i was doing it myself and had a lot of distractions. The instructions were pretty clear, only know that some pieces have stickers, some have the piece numbers printed on the side, some marked with a pen thats hard to see. Once you figure out whats what its easy.
