It turned out looking exactly like the pictures. Very heavy and sturdy. The only problem was a small visible scratch on the bottom shelf and the handles didn't align properly (this could be due to the fact that you have to screw them in without pre-drilled holes -- you could easily use other knobs). I was able to assemble it alone with a screwdriver and the instructions in about 4 hours. The doors are adjustable and soft-close! I bought it for about $130 and especially for that price would highly recommend. Do keep in mind that it's only 12" deep...so if your feet are normal male size or greater, you'll need to put the shoes in sideways or diagonal.
