Hard to say how bad shape the cabinet was in. So maybe had to be painted, unfortunately it is a horrible color. I would have wanted it to be a desk instead of the bar.

Rodney, I have to agree with you -- it almost makes me want a strong drink, and I don't drink! LOL! That is a horrible color!

I agree with all of the above.

That is one butt ugly cabinet. IMHO they have ruined it. If they had just refinished the wood & put a nice stain or just varathaned the piece, it would have made such a nice cabinet, now not so much.

I think they ruined it. You can't convert it back, either. There is no foot pedal.

Some things just should not be recycled/upcycled, whatever they want to call it.

That's pretty ugly. We saw one used as a base for a potting bench. Sad.

It was questionable whether it would wind up in a landfill, so they painted it and removed all doubt. At least the color would match what would come out of me were I to have a drink, then look at that table.
