Very pleased with this purchase. Was moderately easy to put together and seems quite tight. Looks are simple and good. I would guess this was designed more as an office piece, but we use it as our liquor cabinet off of our kitchen.
We got what we paid for, a $73 cabinet. Its fair quality at best so I wouldnt recommend expecting this cabinet to wow you. That said, we were looking for something decent to hide away our dog food in a somewhat secluded are. It works well for that.
For this type of construction its easy to put together, though it does take some time.
I dont think Id recommend this cabinet to somebody looking for one. We will certainly be looking for a better quality.
The cabinet is easy to put together. The door adjustment takes a little time to get them aligned. The color is slightly darker than we thought but is pretty. For us it is a great cabinet to hide dog towels, toys and food. Glad we made this purchase.
Not your mommas furniture (I would know Im a gramma)... This is a very nice looking cabinet. The finish is the most wood-like of any Ive seen in this type of furniture. Looks like stuff costing many times more. I bought these shorter units intending to use them as a long low area but ultimately decided to stack them and use them in the dining area as a pantry instead of an older cabinet I had in there because they look so nice.
Of note on this new generation of units - they finally, finally changed the way the fasteners work! No Cam and Pin on this one! now its a one piece twist-lock and you just tighten the screw, so much better!!
A couple of assembly notes.
1. If you intend to stack them, read the entire instruction guide first before putting the second unit together or you will waste work as you will be leaving off the bottom skirt area - it should note this at that point in the instructions but does not. Luckily I am a fan of RTFM and did fine. The top unit is pretty light to put up there without the skirt on it. Do screw them together and use the tip safe device!
2. When you go to put on the doors - I would suggest not doing it the way they state. They want you to put the hinge in the door and then put it onto the cabinet. Its much harder than it has to be. Put the hinge on the cabinet first, then put the door on afterward. Its much easier to hold the door up against the hinge and pop the screws in than to hold the door and hinge and work with the screws in the hinges (which were the only part of the whole process to make me grumble, they are hard to screw in).
Ive uploaded a pic of mine stacked in the dining area.
If I could change one thing it would be to have the option to buy more shelves easily.
Color was right. Back board had to be reordered since it was cut wrong. Doors do not stay closed so we have to tilt it a bit. Was not hard to put together but take your time.
Love this cabinet!! Use it for my coffee corner. It Provides the space for my Keurig and my regular coffee pot, plus storage for cups, coffee and also my little two cup tea maker. Still haven filled it up yet!!

So pretty and very easy to put together, also very functional and sturdy
Looks nice, good for storage
Assembles easily, good instructions. Finish nicks easily if bumped with something slightly sharp or hard but its fine for infrequently used storage.
Very pleased.

Looks great and contains our ERT go bags so they match the lobby decor.
