The appearance and construction is a LOT nicer than the typical builder-grade honey oak and plastic cabinet that you can buy for the same price. The body is white metal and very sturdy. The metal trim on the mirror wraps around the back of the door and covers 1/4" of the backing, which feels like's probably MDF but has a nice smooth white finish. The only negative is that when you open the cabinet, the edge of the door scrapes the wall and leaves black marks, which is a big negative. You could address this by shimming the cabinet forward a small bit -- 1/8" should do it -- but the manufacturer should really just attach the door properly. I bought two, and they both do it, so it's not a one-off defect.

Pros: Looks more expensive than it is
Cons: Opening door scrapes the wall and leaves black marks
