Love this cabinet. The front panels give it a very modern, stylish look. I¡¯m using as a pantry cabinet and it has a ton of space. Definitely need two people to put together.
Perfect for my needs, and actually more than I expected! One star deducted for reason listed below, but not likely to be a repeat issue.
I purchased this for my newly revamped home office after 21 years, as I want everything hidden and put away so that my space has no distractions. This until worked out great, even though it's sold a 'kitchen pantry'
Here's why:
- firstly, nothing comes in my house that isn't taken apart, brought in or out in pieces, put together and then has to meet a massive amount of measurement restrictions and criteria. (case-in-point, the exposed support beam and low ceiling height)
- should this be an issue for you as well, note that the legs DO NOT have to be installed. That saves you 2" on the total height. That was a deal breaker for me otherwise it would have never worked
- The metal doors are fantastic (I did have a small issue with one of the doors but Wayfair made it right in a matter of minutes in only 1 phone call. The one door was found dented in the box after lifting protective Styrofoam box, hence the 4 star rating).
- each shelf is fixed into place. This was great for me as it provide excellent stability as I had to do a little creative 'fitting' with the top board in order to fit into my space
- each shelf is very roomy and sturdy
- very easy assembly instructions (which is not a given with other similar units)
- metal tracks for the drawers, and metal door/drawer handles as well (I didn't see one piece of plastic)
- I wasn't sure if the perforated metal would be too see-though, however it's not an issue at all
- fast delivery
- the box is heavy, and a tip that I always do is open the box up outside and then take each piece(s) in separately
I highly recommend this item and incase you are interested, the unit beside it was also purchased through Wayfair, 36" 5 Drawer Bottom Rollaway Chest (where you can read my 5-star review there)
This is a very nice storage cabinet. Heavy and sturdy.
Instructions weren’t great. I struggled with a few steps. One step stumped me for a good half hour until I realized the parts were mislabeled. The part to attach the door was very confusing and I messed it up a few times before getting it right. One piece (8) was missing in hole in one out of the two pieces. It was easy enough to drill the hole.. It took my husband and I a few hours to put it together (albeit this kind of stuff does not come naturally to either of us but I have put together quite a few things in my life). The cabinet itself is pressed wood. Only the doors are metal. You DEFINITELY need 2 ppl to put it together. It’s also very heavy. We had to open the box downstairs and carry the pieces upstairs into our kitchen/dining room. I really needed this for pantry space and I didn’t want to spend a ton of money. At $165, I’m pleased with it now that the hard part is done.
