It is a beautiful chest for the money ..... BUT after putting it together witch was simple and easy like a couple of other purchasers i shut the lid and it wouldnt open again it was locked and the key just spun and did nothing , the redeaming grace to the whole situation was the customer service agent that helped when i called , he was the reason i gave this chest 3 stars instead of one . So buyer beware if you take a gamble on this pretty chest you might not be able to use it after all .
