With the understanding that this armoire is composed of particle board, it's still a pretty nice, attractive & sturdy piece of furniture.  At half the price of the real-wood antique wardrobes I'd been considering, we decided to go for it.  Was pretty easy to put together, though one screw holding the top down didn't want to cooperate.  I felt sorry for the FedEx man who delivered the package, though - it is VERY heavy.
