For the price, it really exceeded my expectations. We got the rustic gray color and it is very pretty. It's not totally sturdy, but most furniture isn't, especially at that price. That said, I trust it 100% to hold up under the weight of the equipment I've put on it. It isn't quite as tall as I expected, but I didn't check the measurements so that's totally on me. I'd say it stands about 5 feet, give or take a couple inches. It holds a surprising amount of stuff, but the shelves at the top are a touch too short for some of my books. Where it isn't as tall, it is decently deep.It wasn't difficult to put together; we had it built in around an hour. The only complaint I have is that the doors on the lower half aren't fully aligned, but that could easily be a user error and not a manufacturing error. It came well packaged and I didn't notice any dings, dents, or scratches.All in all, it's perfect for the price. I am very happy and contemplating a second one.
