Good looking and sturdy!!! My husband loves this long console table. He is using it in front of a double window to hold his speakers and other music media. Where we are using it is great; however, it is not actual wood on the outside, more like a faux plastic wrap around a wooden frame. It is not bad, but I would not keep it for my living room or hallway. We will keep it and use it in his “man cave”, but if you want a true wooden piece of furniture, this size, you will need to spend another couple of thousand dollars.
