Compared to most other boxes sold on Amazon in a similar size range, this one in particular is much deeper, when you combine the interior dimensions of the lid and the rest of the box. It is still small enough that you do not have to treat it as a chest and leave it sitting on the floor like major furniture. You can tuck it away on a shelf or under your desk without it getting in the way, and the way the wood is joined looks very nice.In terms of the wood itself, superficial rough patches or splinters in a few spots; the wood is not especially heavy or thick, and I would treat the box with care (Don't drop it or carelessly bang it into things) but it's well-made enough and durable. The interior, in particular, had a few odd spots where there was some glue, but this seems minor and I would never call it careless in application--it looks like there was fair effort to remove excess. Hinges are cheaper hardware, so the lid should be opened gently; locks seem to work pretty well.While I would not treat this box as a finished product, if you get some sandpaper and go over it, it looks lovely with a nice stain and sealer, and I use mine for holding seed packets vertically, so I can read them. The closest thing I can find to hold seed packets on the market are metal tins or plastic tubs, and I really wanted a wooden box. This is big enough to hold larger seed packets ordered from certain specialty nurseries, on top of the common ones you see from stores and their standard size.I keep it tucked under my computer desk--it is visible, so I am happy that it looks so nice when finished.

A very precisely made, clean, smoothly sanded, useful box with attractive functional hardware. It's made with solid pine strips cut to about 1/4 inch, not plywood. Has a very nice appearance and is perfect for the use (storage) for which I got it. If you wanted to prime and paint it, it's ready for that. I like it natural.

This is a beautiful, solid, well made wooden box. The quality is excellent. Excellent size.

The wood is great quality, thick and sturdy and smells great! I will definitely order again if I need another box this size!

Give it two coats of raw linseed oil, lightly sand with 400 grit sand paper, then another coat of raw linseed oil. Let dry. This will give it a smooth feel and a warm, natural color.To apply the linseed oil just pour a bit on the surface and rub it in with your fingers.Easy and, except for the sanding, you can do it in your kitchen.
