These things are a complete pain to assemble. The pieces are maked with stickers that fall off. Follow the directions start to finish. Use glue on wooden dowels. Once assembled they are sturdy and attractive with good storage, but assembly was daunting.
...VERY difficult and time-consuming to assemble correctly! Other reviewers stated the same, but I thought Its just people who dont have much experience with assembly, tools or the like... Boy, was I mistaken to assume that!
The (poorly written and illustrated) instruction sheet stated assembly time 90 minutes. Try about 5 hours, and that was with another persons assistance for about the first two hours! I am not exaggerating!
Now, once this epic build was finally completed, I did end up with a sturdy, useful cabinet that looks good and serves the purpose in the kitchen. But WOW! That assembly nightmare and the messy and crazy foam packaging the parts are layered in... an afternoon of pure misery awaits the brave soul who buys this thing.
But, did I mention that its a really nice cabinet?)
The finished product is very nice, sturdy, and roomy. the act of assembling was very daunting. There were several items not drilled. Once I got past the undrilled pieces, the assembly was completed and the finished product is very desirable.
All in all its exactly what I paid for. A cheap place to put my spices.
The only real complaint I have is they could have used better plastic on the door magnets. Other than that and the fact that there are no guide holes for the glass windows its not bad
Perfect for what we needed, some parts damaged , but I am a cabinet maker so I made them work ,also after pieces are edgebanded they really needed to be filed and cleaned of glue, it is just another step for q.c. and perfection. Thank you .recommend
This hutch took a while to put together (about 2.5 hours alone, with 1 minute of a second pair of hands being needed). Its very sturdy for a piece of flat-pack furniture. Mine was short 1 screw (pull knob, standard size, easily replaced) and it took more effort than i would have liked to adjust the door hinges but I am very happy with the purchase. It looks great in my kitchen and has given me a lot of added storage. .recommend

Simple Clean Looking
You definitely need a second person to help you but it was easy enough to build and 1 put together it looks really good
Decent Cabinet at a Good Price... BUT...

Dont buy if youre not handy
The finished product is very nice, sturdy, and roomy. the act of assembling was very daunting. There were several items not drilled. Once I got past the undrilled pieces, the assembly was completed and the finished product is very desirable.
Not for the instructionally impaired
