Seeing the pieces was a little overwhelming, I'm a whiz with putting things together, but this took me 4 hours to put together. I was pleased with the outcome. Not for someone who has trouble building things.
Overall, we love this cabinet! Other reviews are accurate, but issues aren't deal breakers: ours thankfully had almost no pilot holes drilled, but marked with a punch. Many of these marks were way off. All drilled holes for hardware were made accurately. Back cardboard panel can't be used as intended because most Storage have to stick an inch out the back to fit. Strips of the panel were used to both anchor the shelves from sliding, and stabilize the cabinet from sideways wobble. Our feet were fine. Half of the door hinge screws go into low density particle board, so to prevent guaranteed pull out, the holes were drilled, threaded with the screws, and hardened with thin CA glue. Only the doors of our cabinet appeared to be wood, the majority of the cabinet is particle board, but good quality.
holds a lot of Storage, shelves are adjustable for boots. hides Storage but still lets them breath eliminating that musty odor. easy to put together, looks beautiful, sturdy - love it.
I purchased two of these, because I have a bit of a problem. I ended up stacking them on top of each other. In order to do that you have to remove the feet and play around with the hinges but it end up working beautifully. They are a bit of a bear to put together, however the doors are solid wood and very sturdy. Very good quality hinges and you cant tell in the picture but these are a dark wood stain and pretty classy looking. I have them at my front entrance because I have no room in this new house for my inventory. Now I am a lady and I wear a size 9 1/2 . I had no problem putting my Storage in these cabinets. I actually removed one shelf so I could fit my boots.
First of all, shipping was amazing. I ordered it prime on a Thursday, it told me it would be delivered that Monday, so not the two day shipping it should be, disappointing but whatever. BUT, it arrived THE NEXT DAY. I was so excited since I ordered this to have a place to keep our Storage that our 10 week puppy cant get into and I can stop yelling no Storage! 500 times a day.
Building the cabinet was relatively easy. The instructions are pictures only but Id say Im moderately experienced when it comes to putting furniture together like this so it wasnt a big deal. It did have instructions with it, I was slightly concerned because some reviews said it didnt have any. The feet are plastic painted to look like metal but I also dont see that as a big deal. You can use it without the feet, which is what we did because it was an inch too tall for the space with them on. The doors still open without rubbing on the floor.
Quality wise- thats where it loses some stars. It is very wobbly if not mounted to the wall, so to me with small children and a clumsy puppy that likes to be a jerk, mounting it to the wall is an absolute must. From afar it looks beautiful and its a great addition to my entry. But up close there are scratches and marks on it which is disappointing for brand new furniture out of the box. The shelves are not as deep as I was hoping, my husbands size 11 work boots have to be turned sideways in order to fit which isnt a huge deal but does take away from the number of Storage you can fit in the cabinet. You can remove shelves to fit taller boots in there but I managed to make it work without doing that to avoid losing anymore storage. It is disappointing that you can not adjust the height of the shelves without removing them completely, I pictured it being like a book shelf where you could pick the spacing between shelves but thats not an option unless you want to drill your own holes, which isnt something I feel like attempting. It doesnt have any handles, which is fine because theres slots in the front you can easily grab to open, but for some reason every time I go to open it Im like wait, wheres the handles? No big deal, just something I guess my brain needs to get used to.
Overall its a decent cabinet and will look good from afar, but it isnt sturdy on its own without being mounted to the wall, and finding scratches and marks all over fresh from the box is pretty disappointing.

Storage cabinet.

Good size, poor quality
Cheaply painted, scratched all over the place. Good size and concept though. Easy to assemble.
Don't be afraid based on reviews!

Nice cabinet, but some worn pieces
It looks pretty put together, but if you look close, some of the slats are worn on the edges and need to be filled in with a wood stain or marker.
Great fit for a family of four!
It was a pain putting it together... got a handyman for $40 to do it for me!
Perfect rack
holds a lot of Storage, shelves are adjustable for boots. hides Storage but still lets them breath eliminating that musty odor. easy to put together, looks beautiful, sturdy - love it.
Difficult to assemble
The instructions were poor for this. It was just a picture diagram. I finally figured it out and once together it is a nice cabinet.
Good quality for the money

Decent cabinet- not sturdy enough to stand on its own.
