Using it as a storage cabinet under my bathroom sink that doesnt have a vanity. Beautiful, put together with 2 ppl and some wood glue in less than 1 hour. doors work like a charm. Package came damaged, but the cabinet itself was in perfect condition. Sturdier than I thought it would be at the price. Highly recommend.
Updated review: after some conversation with company, they have offered to order and sell me a replacement door for my broken one. It may be 30/45 days before I receive it but that is fine with me and I am happy I dont have to replace entire unit. .Product description says constructed of high quality wood. It is mdf and I dont consider that high quality wood. However, I was overall satisfied with product for price until recently one of the doors broke (my fault) and I wanted to purchase a replacement door. You cannot. They will not sell you just a door. So I will have to replace the whole unit and if replacing entire unitI will replace with higher quality product.
We were looking for a storage unit that could double as a station. We looked at using kitchen cabinet units but the ridiculous high pricing nixed that approach. Started searching out pre/made, ready/to/assemble units. Tried , also suddenly very expensive and no stock to be had this close out of the recent world event. Time to check
This is a factory mass produced, made of low to medium quality boards created from pulp/mulch that is pressed and formed, held together with a strong adhesive. The only real wood piece is the nicely beveled counter top. Drawer slides are simple plastic sleeves and the door hinges are a light weight metal. Both are acceptable for the light weight of materials they support.
I found all materials acceptable for this type of build with one exception. One reviewer warned they found the screws supplied for holding the door hinges in place were too small for extended use. That person is correct. After reading this, I purchased a slightly bigger and stronger grip number 6 screw, ? in length. A measly 3.99 later, problem solved. Thanks, person who shared that.
Instructions are well laid out and all parts are clearly labeled. Took my wife and I about 45 minutes to complete the assembly without any cursing (I was more surprised than my wife). While assembling, I had to marvel at all the pieces having all the holes precisely predrilled and slots pre/cut and everything and locking together without a hitch. If you were too build such a unit from scratch talk about cursing, never mind trying to mass produce it.
Overall strength of the uint is acceptable for responsible adult ownership. Although it feels fairly stable when completed, remember: It is made from boards created with pulp and glue. One over enthusiastic slam or an explorative, unattended child later and youll have a busted and unrepairable unit in no time.
For anyone sensitive to such things, it should be noted that the smell of the adhesive used to make the pulp/mulch boards is very, very strong. We noticed it when first opening the box, thinking, Ah, that new furniture smell! But, even 5 days after assembly, it remains evident. I left all the drawers and doors open for a couple days after assembly, just to let it air out before putting anything in it. I didnt want it to permeate any of the supplies we planned on storing in it.
Would I buy another unit like this? No. Is it good enough for adults responsible to accept the light weight quality and wanting an affordable alternative? Yes.
Using this side table across from stairs in the front hall. Perfect to store winter gloves and scarfs, setting out indoor shoes. The top displays candles and is handy for things I need to grab before going out.
