I love the style of this piece because it matches the other slightly worn looking pieces in my entryway. It was an open box item so there was a little damage to the inside bottom shelf but a little wood glue fixed it right up (and I saved $100!). I like that it already came assembled so it feels more sturdy than some pieces that I've received that needed to be assembled. The shelving is deep and strong enough to hold a record collection I have but I have not put anything in the drawers yet so not sure how they will hold up.
