This is a cute and handy piece, and I am glad rather Ive purchased it. It has a retro/vibe and is the perfect size for what i oersonally needed in my home. Materials are not top notch, but I didnt expect that. What I really did not like was putting this together! It literally took several hours. So, if youre considering a purchase, Id like to suggest using a buddy to assemble the drawers while youre putting the rest together. Itll make things go much more smoothly A Phillips head screw driver is a must, or a small cordless drill, but be careful not to overtighten. And dont make any other plans for the rest of the day, youll be too tired! Im a very handy girl, BTW. Waiting around for the man to come along is not style!!
Additionally, the small wooden dowels used to hold the drawers from falling out may need a small drop of hot glue to secure in place. Good luck! Good and inexpensive
This isnt the worst piece of furniture that Ive assembled, but its far from the best.
The pieces are wrapped in foam sheets that have the consistence of wet toilet paper, which will cast bits of static charged foam all over whatever room you assemble this in. You will also want to clean each piece as you assemble, or youll wind up with a dusty mess of a cabinet.
Speaking of cleaning the pieces, each piece is labeled with a sticker, which is nice. Unfortunately, these stickers arent the easy/to/remove variety, so in addition to your tools, grab your Goo Gone.
There were several construction corners cut, like the use of black vinyl stickers to cover the metal heads of screws that will be visible after assembly. This is pretty chintzy normally, but doubly so in this case, as the piece isnt actually black.
The instructions are bad, but usable. There is no chart showing the sizes of the various screws. The screws are numbered, but several of the parts bags include multiple parts, so the numbering isnt terribly useful. Further, the hardware is located in a box that is labeled legs on multiple sides. I spent several minutes searching the staticky, foamy box looking for the hardware kit, before finding it in the perplexingly labeled box.
The cabinet includes a mechanism for anchoring it to a wall, which is actually quite cleverly executed.
The cabinet uses dowel pins in a poorly conceived attempt to stop the drawers from coning entirely out of the unit when drawn too far. It works, but its a kludge, and Im certain that Ill find the dowel pins rolling around in the drawers at some later date, and will have forgotten why theyre there.
I bought this cabinet to house my Internet router, which sits in my guest bedroom, so that the blinking lights wont disturb my guests. Happily, it works quite well for this purpose.
I wouldnt use this as a high traffic piece of furniture, not would I store anything of any size/weight in the drawers, but if you need a little cabinet to sit a lamp on, or someplace to stick things that you dont use very often, this works well enough.
And its cheap. I like this one.
I am impressed with the quality and the ease of putting it together. Everything was exactly as described. I am VERY happy with this purchase. Very cute, looks just like the pictures.
Like the product but had a lot of Scratches. Most were on the inside so I wasnt worth the trouble to return. Over all I really like it. Sturdy easy to put together. On the smaller side but good Debating if we are going to keep it
