I bought two bathroom cabinets, one regular and one over-the toilet. I bought them because they matched perfectly the bathroom cabinetry in our new apartment. The labeling of the parts and the pictorial instructions were excellent but putting the pieces all together was still a chore for the unhandy .I could not be more pleased with the final product. The over-the-toilet cabinet was 2 inches shorter than necessary to clear the water pipe coming out of the wall. I bought two blocks of wood, painted them and bracketed them to the bottom of the cabinet and it worked perfectly. If you are wiling to put in several hours of assembly time, you will get a solid and attractive piece of bathroom furniture.
This cabinet is a smaller than I would have preferred, but the drawer-door configuration is ideal. Wish that it was 6 or so deeper and 6-10 wider. Was quite complex to put together, but the pieces were well marked and well designed. Time consuming to put together with all the pieces.
Im the guy other family members ask to come over when they buy furniture they need to assemble. And Im giving this 5 stars. Heres why:
Packaged great- there are protective layers between each layer in the box to keep stuff from scratching - there were a few very minor finish inconsistencies, but not enough to warrant any sort of deduction. This is furniture in a box after all.
Pretty darn clear directions: when I started looking at directions a was likeoh, great, here we go as text was in a foreign language. You know what? It didnt matter . Great diagrams, all hardware and the wooden pieces.... all clearly marked. ( which there are a lot of pieces which could have made this a horrific experience but didnt)
Prep work: almost all the holes were PERFECTLY drilled. And any that werent were close enough not to matter
Quality : excepting that the back (which is made of two pieces and connected, but even that- the connection piece sits behind the centerline so is only visible in the in top section) and a little wobble with the bottoms of the drawers - again, not bad - this is put it together yourself furniture - the rigidity of the assembly after putting together is as tight as prebuilt furniture. I am amazed.
Hints - I believe there was only One piece that if Installed incorrectly would have shown raw wood (directions werent exactly clear on the center divider that supports the inner part of drawers on one side and shelf on other) but everything else, if you look at the diagrams for where to install hardware was very clear. Have a short handled screwdriver - there were a few cam locks and the center screw for the top that I couldnt use long handled screwdriver or screw gun.. have a screw gun - there are a lot of screws but I got this put together in less than an hour...just dont overtighten.
Summary - it looks great, is well built, easy to assemble, parts were clearly marked, and had a clear and make sense assembly path. I would not hesitate to buy this or other products from this manufacturer.
To the manufacturer, my only recommendations would be either finish that backside of that once piece of wood or in your directions reference the facing of that board, and also add some sort of caps or stick on discs to cover the 6 cams under the top and the little hole for the screw in the front center of the top. Except that you have put together an amazing product.
I know a lot of people have been complaining about assembly; So i decided to read through all the directions and processes before beginning, and didnt have a single problem other than one screw that thankfully they had an extra packages. Assembling it by myself, although have also purchase Diy items regularly, it took me 2 hours. It feels nice and study, I even liked that it has a slide in back board that tends to be a lot more sturdy than tab or nail on options. Overall I would highly recommend it and if you feel like your in a snag, dont be afraid to undo everything, take a break, read back through the directions and start over. Also make sure to pay attention to the arrows that are present in the charts. Im definitely happy with my purchase! Ive owned it now for over a month and I have a moisture trap problem bathroom, and I havent had any problems with water build up, mildew, or peeling paint/edges.

Very sturdy, worth the money!
Takes a bit to put together, but very sturdy!
Solid and Attractive

Decent cabinet
Holding up well for being small dressers for my kids right now The back board could be sturdier but it hasn't effected use
A long lasting piece
Good quality. Not compressed wood. Takes an hour to assemble. Its worth it.
small cabinet
This cabinet is a smaller than I would have preferred, but the drawer-door configuration is ideal. Wish that it was 6 or so deeper and 6-10 wider. Was quite complex to put together, but the pieces were well marked and well designed. Time consuming to put together with all the pieces.
Experienced put it together yourselfer says this product is a win!

Solid little cabinet
Solid piece. Better than my expectation was.
Lots to put together!
Nice cupboard but quite timely to put together. There is not one screw installed for you on anything. It took about 3 hours to put together.

Nice quality
Lots of parts, but the directions are fairly clear. It looks great, and feels sturdy. It will be a perfect storage solution in the bathroom.
