This cabinet is the perfect size for what I needed and while Im not sorry I purchased it, I dont think Id recommend. Its sturdy enough and handles quite a bit of weight. I was a little concerned when I saw that it came with wall mounts for the top, but it doesnt seem to need them except that the top of the cabinet does stand a little further out from the wall than the bottom. You can only tell if you examine it from the side and I doubt theres any chance it will fall forward. Once I filled it, there was no wobble to it at all. Empty, its light enough for even an old woman to move easily. It looks nice and fits perfectly in a little cubby in my dining room. But its not particularly well made and the instructions for putting it together could use a little more detail when it comes to the back panels. One of the bottom doors requires a slight force to close because it brushes very slightly against the piece above it. I guess its possible that its because of some error in putting it on, but the other doors fit perfectly. The back panels dont fit together properly and have screw holes where no screws could possibly go. I cant tell if it was badly machined or if maybe the same pieces are cut for multiple types of cabinets. Also the top piece was damaged and one of the dowels was missing. Fortunately I happened to have one I could cut to fit. Not terribly difficult to put together except for the back panels, which are paperboard. If they fit the way they look like they are supposed to, it would be a nice design, as the edges are cut so they fit together without the little gap you see on the backs of a lot of entertainment centers and that sort of thing. I desperately needed a pantry and didnt want to spend a lot of time or money. This fit the bill. And it does look nice. Also I generally have not bought furniture that had to be assembled, so perhaps my expectations were a bit high.
So-So purchase, but inexpensive and cute
