Well I'm sure that variations were offered with this credenza, however the skinny black legs don't look anything like the chrome legs attached to mine. Perhaps because yours is what appears to be a 48" model?, as i noticed only 2 sliding doors. Another difference is the white (formica?) interior, and the shelf/drawer configuration. Is the piece labeled?
