It's been a year since I have and it is always nickel. Well finished, aesthetics, it is multifunctional. She first served to put plants and now it serves me in the bathroom. It is stable and strong. I waxed beeswax so that it resists moisture. I take it one star because the 2 shelves underneath are too close together and you can not put anything. For example, if you plan to store shoes, only flat ballerinas kind may enter. One shelf would have been a better choice, but perhaps she would have been less solid.
