People with good taste were very happy with this and said it was exactly what they were thinking of when they were ordering it. Not belonging to the set of people with good taste, my job was to put it together, and if you have assembled office furniture before, it uses the same hardware and there are no surprises. My favorite detail is the little rubber bumpers so the doors don't slam shut. The handles are also OK(Before I started, I was afraid that I would have to buy better ones and switch, but the ones that come with it are fine).
