This is perfect for garage storage! It is skinny enough for my car to fit well in our small garage and it hides tons of clutter. The material is such that marking does not occur easily which is very nice. It is not plastic but some type of sturdy particle board. Assembly was kind of fun, like a puzzle, but the door adjustment at the end was a little confusing. In order for the doors to be flush while closed, you must close them together and make them meet at the middle or you get a gap which is understandable and fine. The doors stand straight out when open (90 degree pivot). Great purchase! Excellent product.
