Cute. The Home Floor Corner Cabinet fits beautifully into the small bedroom closet where I store my yarn stash and other craft supplies. Im incredibly happy with this cabinet. Dont be fooled by the photos Ive included: I am actually using it upside down. Its a lot more sturdy upside down resting on the flat top as a base, and also the perimeter feet area of the cabinet gives me an extra little lip on the top now, adding extra storage where I can keep more yarn without it sliding off the top.
The cabinet comes completely disassembled, and I do mean COMPLETELY. There are lots of different parts, and you have to build it yourself, and will need screwdrivers for the task. The directions are very good and easy to follow, and they do indicate that two people should have it built within 40 minutes. I built this by myself, and I spent about two days on it (not two solid days, but several hours here or there with breaks.) It would definitely have sped things along if Id had another person to help me assemble it, since it was tricky to hold certain pieces together while using the screwdriver, particularly when it came time to attach the doors.
The finished dimensions are exactly as indicated in the listing. 17.1 from the back center corner to either of the front side corners, 23.62 across the front etc. I have noticed that prior reviewers mentioned the dimensions being incorrect, but it seems that the listing has been updated now to accurately reflect the size, so no problems there.
The fully assembled cabinet itself is slightly unstable on its base, however they do provide screws and wall plugs (anchors) so that you can attach it to the wall as well. Since I am using mine in a closet and upside down to get the added benefit of a slightly enclosed top shelf, I find it very stable without attaching to the wall. However, if I move it out somewhere else in the house or choose to use it correctly right side up, I will definitely secure the cabinet to the wall.
All in all, this is a solid, attractive, seemingly durable cabinet. A five star product. The only reason I removed one star was because it did arrive with a scratched up dented corner, in spite of the careful packaging. I have no problem recommending this cabinet to others, and Im very happy with it.
