The graphic design field requires me to have on hand for reference and storage, many CDs, DVDs, client disks archiving jobs, specs, programs, etc. Additionally, for non-business related entertainment media, I have some that function beautifully. Since the design of this cabinet is so simple, it is visually appealing and blends in with hardwood floors, other wood furniture, and I have no complaints. Assembly was relatively simple, took only a couple of hours, and appears to be stable and sturdy. I don't think you'd be disappointed with this cabinet.
