This is a very nice-looking curio cabinet that is perfect for displaying knick-knacks, glassware, or the like. It is large (about 6.5 feet tall, 3.5 feet wide, and almost 1.5 feet deep) and heavy (just under 200 lbs). It is mostly glass framed by real wood. The front side of the back wall is mirrored glass, so it will reflect anything that is in front of it. The back side of the back wall is a particleboard-like substance, but not the flimsy stuff often used for the backing of cheaper shelves. All other walls are made of standard glass, so you can easily see anything stored in the cabinet. It has a locking door that slides left and right (it slides farther to the left than to the right), and eight glass shelves that can be spaced as desired. It has lights at the top of the cabinet interior and a power cord on the back that plugs into a standard outlet.
It comes fully assembled (aside from the glass shelves, which are taped to the bottom to keep them secure) and will require at least two people to move. I ordered it from Wayfair, and I highly recommend choosing the full-service delivery option (especially if you live alone) so they bring it into the room you want it left in and remove all the packing material (there is a lot of it). It looked to be packed extremely well and very securely. It is a great-looking piece, perfect for a formal dining room or living room. My only complaint is that the light control is a dial on the back of the cabinet, near the top of the power cord. It would be more convenient to have a switch on the side, which is an extremely minor point. Ultimately, if you are in the market for a curio cabinet, this is an excellent option.
