very solid construction, with a great stainless steel top. Word of caution - don't get this if you can't deal with some scuffs that show that the surface is being actively used, don't get it. It will not look like a stainless steel fridge exterior for long. Personally, I was annoyed when the scuffs were few in number (ocd a bit), but now that the surface is just generally looking "used", none of the scratches stand out, and I like it a lot. It's easy to disinfect and clean, perfect for cooking, especially prepping meat.
