A great accent to my dining room This items is not true to size in a south asian house hold is organizing the spices, bought one before but it had less bottles and size was not "space friendly".

Sound quality is clear but bass heavy without playing with the EQUALIZER settings. I am a size 1O. 5 and I was compelled to buy the next size bigger which fits 11-12.
