The shelf is very sturdy and looks great in our kitchen. It is very hard to put together and takes patience but worth it. Only complaint and reason for the 4 stars is because there are no screw covers for this piece. You would think for what you spend they could include white plastic pieces so you can’t see all of the screws down the side of the shelf but nope. It’s a nice piece of furniture but it looks tacky being able to see all of the holes.
I bought an older home with a tiny kitchen and no pantry. So I bought this cabinet to use for kitchen storage. Its very pretty and holds quite a bit of stuff. Putting it together was somewhat difficult. The doors do not line up and theres about a 1/2 gap between them. But I feel like it was a worthwhile purchase.
So this product is definitely a space saver and esthetically pleasing ... however the time to build it was over 3 hours due to not having a power drill . My boyfriend assembled by himself however he became extremely frustrated when he discovered there are no pre drilled holes on any of the doors for the hinges. Other than that the product is lovely but I would not ever ask him to assemble it again !
Product came with no instructions. Making assembly a bit challenging because i had to keep looking at pictures to assemble.
Had some missing screws. This could easily be due to the lack of instructions. But I had some in my personal collection.
The holes for the power cords are only on the left side (when facing front). In my case having them on the right would have been a better option. But the back is not laminated in white. Also the cord hole for the bottom half is at the upper corner. I feel that having it cut lower would help conceal the cord better. From the viewpoint of the manufacturer the hole positioning appears to be a cost saver.
I tapped in some brads (not included) to the stationary shelves to give the backing what I consider to be a better appearance. Since without them theres a slight gap. As a tip I marked the back with a pen by lining up the screw heads. Then I placed painters tape to mark the back (shelf location) and tapped the brads through the tape. Reusing the tape and process for both shelves.
The manufacturer provides plastic clips that I assume were designed to provide the same appearance, but I chose not to use them out of fear of splitting the wood. Especially since its made of partical board. I also nailed furniture guides to the bottom (not provided) to protect it from chipping and breaking. And making it easier to move for cleaning (possible relocation) in the future.
I love this, except the doors, top and bottom are not ligned up correctly. Because of this, its way over priced. With all the pain of putting together, we are not returning! Hopefully guest will not notice!
I always read the reviews for an online purchase and this one was no different. I was a bit worried due to the number of issues people had with it but I really liked the look and the size and decided to buy it. Im so glad I did. We had an issue with damage to one piece but we contacted , who contacted the seller. Bottom line is that we had the issue totally resolved the same day. We really did not have problems with putting it together at all. The pieces are all clearly marked and the instructions were fine. Yes, it takes about 3 hours for even a skilled woodworker but the doors aligned just fine and overall we have no complaints. This company is great to deal with and we are very happy with the purchase.

Lots of parts
Took 2 of us many hours to put together Everything was marked nicely but a lot to do
Sturdy, get ready to assemble, no screw cap covers

Beautiful For the price ! Pain in the ass to assemble

Worthwhile investment. Requires patience to assemble.

Perfect for my kitchen
Perfect for a small space, sturdy and clean line, highly recommended if you need extra storage.
Cabinet
It’s a great live for the value
Hard assembly, doors dont align!
I love this, except the doors, top and bottom are not ligned up correctly. Because of this, its way over priced. With all the pain of putting together, we are not returning! Hopefully guest will not notice!
Good cupboard
Its a good cupboard, but it stinks like paint. Im afraid its going to taint the food stored in it.
I really like this cabinet
