i absolutely love this. i vacillated between this and a few other options, mostly because of the price. but i desperately needed a piece with these dimensions, and i am so glad i pulled the trigger. i am by myself, and this was left at the bottom of the stoop on the sidewalk, but i had no trouble carrying it and getting it into the desired location. its truly substantial (in other words, doesnt feel cheap), but not clunky or heavy. yep, a great purchase!
