This unit was initially purchased and used for classroom storage. Later it was used at home for garage storage of pantry items etc. The wood is in great condition but does have some minor wear and tear. I am confident if cleaned and scrubbed well much of the wear and tear would disappear. The corners are all intact and free from chipping and denting to my knowledge. This is an excellent piece for any sort of storage organization. Can be turned in different directions to suit your needs. Must sell ASAP. Make me an offer!
