This thing is a beautiful piece for any home (as long as you have room for it). It’s super solid and heavy. We’ve had this for well over a decade and it’s one of our favorite pieces. Definitely a staple. We’ve used it to store my vinyl collection and my turntable and speakers in our bar room and has been the perfect piece for hosting. It has a few large holes in the back that we covered with burlap which are convenient to run cords through. Don’t have the skeleton key for the lock but I’m sure you can find set of skeleton keys from Amazon if you want to lock it up.
