I won't lie: this wasn't what I had in mind for a display coffee table, but I couldn't find any wooden types available at the time. I was nervous about this much glass being shipped, but it came very securely packaged with nothing damaged. It took me about an hour to assemble the whole thing.For the most part, everything is as I hoped it would be... except the doors. They're so heavy, they repeatedly slipped out of their hardware. And although this is clearly tempered glass, I was fearful of turning the screws much tighter for fear of cracking it. They definitely need a redesign for the doors that doesn't involve tension on the glass.It's a nice looking unit with plenty of space to display whatever you want. I would NOT recommend this to anyone with children or people who treat their furnishings mindlessly. I doubt this piece will last, and its biggest weakness IS those doors. They absolutely will NOT take any extra tugging or weight.I can't for the life of me understand why they mention fish in the description. This is not watertight in any sense of the word, and it's not sturdy enough to hold anything more than a fishbowl, so please don't buy it for that.
