I needed a very specific size cabinet and this fits exactly in my space. It took me over 2 hours to assemble. The only challenging part was installing the drawer tracks. The direction picture isnt very clear but I figured out. A little flimsy for the price but looks great and has lots of space.
This cabinet isnt bad, but it isnt great, either. It looks pretty good, but its a little flimsy. I wouldnt, and havent, put any heavy items in it. It does have a good amount of space for lighter items, however.
The real issue I have with this item,was the poorly produced instruction book. I found it to be somewhat unclear. Additionally, many of the parts were unlabeled, further complicating the assembly experience. Frustrating.
It is what it is, a simple little cabinet. For the price, Im satisfied, but I cant really recommend it.
When we received the product, it was missing much of the hardware needed to build it, and the predrilled holes were not predrilled or were predrilled in the wrong places. My husband was able to find what he needed and drill what he needed to get the piece assembled. I really love the cabinet. It is beautiful and sturdy.
I just needed a little more storage and countertop space after moving, and I decided that this was the perfect item. I gave it four stars for sturdiness only because it isnt solid wood. However, for the price it is PLENTY sturdy.
Now for the assembly time. Yes it took a while and no Im not sure exactly how much time. That said, having read the reviews I inventoried all the parts immediately. I laid everything out in alpha-numeric order and then I skimmed through the manual before I started. It took about 15 minutes just to figure out how to get past one of the steps. So yes, it took a while but if youre patient, youll be happy with the final result.
I thought Id paid close attention to the need for assembly but obviously didnt because the package arrived in a flat pack and came with 22 pieces and a billion screws/pegs. That would have been fine (my fault for not fully paying attention), but the majority of holes were not properly aligned or drilled, so the initial construction made for a very flimsy product. This thing is holding on by a thread. The overall look is fine and the dimensions are accurate, but its not solid. The instructions were detailed and easy to follow but recommends two people to put it together -- which is probably why it took this ONE person five hours to put together versus the two hours the instructions estimated. Ive put together whole dresser drawers in less time. And with less swearing. Ive ordered from this brand before and the item arrived assembled and works great. So Ill probably order from this brand again -- Ill just be VERY careful about the assembly points.
This is pretty cute and a great size for the space I needed it for. Assembly was a little difficult, since none of the pieces had letter labels like they did in the instructions and there were several that were very similar. Parts of the instructions were very faded/almost impossible to see, and the inside was missing holes for the pegs that hold up the middle shelf so I had to drill them myself. I also cannot get the doors to hang straight, and there were several nicks and scrapes on the sides and legs. But, once put together it seems sturdy enough and holds a lot.
It took me a while to put it all together, plus I used wood glue to help strengthen the piece. I left out the wine bottle insert since we dont really drink, let alone, drink wine, and instead am using that for quilts. Love how it all came together. Definitly no regrets buying it.

Take your time assembling

Very cute cabinet
I bought this for extra storage in my small kitchen. Its very cute, provides great storage, and wasnt too hard to put together.
Not bad, but not terribly sturdy.

Beautiful.. BUT...

Worth the Assembly Time

Be careful what you order...looks easy but it aint

Not bad, could be better
