I'm very happy with this purchase. My husband is a woodworker so yes, I could complain that it doesn't have dovetailed drawers or isn't tiptop quality, but for the price this is a really nice piece; no particle board. I read the reviews prior to making my purchase that said this has a gray tinge to it and that is true. It has sort of a light oak finish with a gray wash. Mine was packaged very well which was also another complaint I read. The box it came it had many dings on it but the armoire was covered in foam and wrapped really well.
