I included lots of pics because these are what I would have liked to have seen prior to purchasing- capacity!! What all will it hold? I left the cat in 1st pic for scale, she is on the large side.
Ive rearranged a couple of times to fit in more (likely will do so again with another crock-pot) and am amazed it holds So Much! A blender on its base, 6 qt crock-pot, tea maker, coffee maker, mixer, tall insulated water bottles, many vases, cupcake holders, hand blenders, egg boiler, 3 stack steamer. Having only 3 1/4 drawers in my kitchen, adding these 3 drawers makes this one the pick over any others that dont have them. So glad I went with this one, completely worth it to have added so much storage to a small kitchen.
Like others have said, the doors dont seem as sturdy when opening/closing as the sideboard itself, which is a Substantial piece of furniture.
It was missing 1 screw from the hardware provided, and the last picture is a barely noticeable soft dent in the front bottom fascia the only flaw that looks like it was in the wood before paint/poly. There is a small scratch above the left hand door- but could have been done when assembling or unpacking.
So far, I am highly satisfied with this piece and would purchase again for other room storage. I also did purchase the 3 year All-state warranty, so well see how it holds up over time.
The assembly directions are expressed as pictograms only, to avoid the need for multiple translations of any written text. Study each pictogram carefully and then examine the part to make sure you get it oriented in the correct direction. Do this again to double-check. My past experiences with flat pack furniture assembly have taught me that undoing something after assembling incorrectly often results in a broken piece or a ruined pilot hole that wont accept its requisite screw in peg snugly anymore. You want to get the assembly correct the first time to achieve a pleasing result.
This cabinet is very well made, with all pilot holes in each piece accurately positioned. The cabinet case assembles straight and level. The doors hang properly within the face frame. The drawer assembles square and true so that it glides easily into the finished cabinet. This is a very well built flat pack kit. The best I have encountered to date. take note!!
Take care. Study each assembly step and verify what you are about to do makes sense before you do it. Follow this advice and you should end up with a lovely finished cabinet. I use mine in my bathroom. There are other cabinet kits available from for less money but they are made of particle board. This one is MDF with a high quality finish applied to both sides of everything. The inside of the cupboard and the drawer are as nice as the outside. Well worth the extra expense. It was the MDF material spec that lead me to choose this product in the 1st place.
I put it together all by myself, it took me all weekend, very tedious, so many screws and parts at first it seemed overwhelming but little by little step by step, i did it and i live it, however the slightest bump ot hit to any parts makes the color crack and flakes off, so if you have kids around i wont strongly recommend it will scratch easily.
I gave it an overall 4, mainly because it says its brown but I would actually call it clearly black in color (unless I was sent the wrong cabinet). Its assembled so Ill live with it. Beware it looks black.
The assembler I hired told me the directions were not clear. He was able to assemble it anyway. I have this in my breakfast room with a TV and small appliances on it. Its fits perfectly in my space.
This buffet is as good as it looks in the picture. Lots of parts, but assembly instructions are clear. Very sturdy. Assembly instructions were inadvertently left out of the box, but supplier responded IMMEDIATELY when I contacted , and we got them by email right away. Supplier was very professional and courteous and apologized for oversight. I would recommend this supplier in a heartbeat.

Beautiful and So Much Storage

Layout all the pieces so it looks like a cardboard box opened out flat before starting assembly

Tedious

Buffet
For the amount of money it cost, the unit is not very sturdy. Its thin and cheaply made.
Not what I expected
It is pretty but not what I was looking for it to be very small dont hold much
Its actually black
I gave it an overall 4, mainly because it says its brown but I would actually call it clearly black in color (unless I was sent the wrong cabinet). Its assembled so Ill live with it. Beware it looks black.
Beautiful and functional
I like that it has cabinets and drawers
Beautiful and Sturdy Cabinet
It perfectly fills the empty space in my bathroom. It conveniently holds towels and toilet paper. The drawer is handy for hair tools. I love it!
Beautiful color and storage capacity
The assembler I hired told me the directions were not clear. He was able to assemble it anyway. I have this in my breakfast room with a TV and small appliances on it. Its fits perfectly in my space.
