I received my cabinet 2 days earlier than quoted (nice surprise). The cabinet was packaged very well, no broken parts or nicks in the wood. It went together very easily, however the instructions are a little vague, but having assembled furniture similar to this in the past it was no big problem. Had it together in about 15 to 20 minutes. We placed it in our bathroom for extra storage of towels, wash clothes etc. and it fit perfectly in the space where we wanted to put it. It is quite elegant looking and for the money you cant beat it. Thanks for another great shopping experience at .com!!!!
First off, this beautiful and sturdy piece arrived 4 days ahead of schedule. I was quite pleased to find it on my doorstep when I got home from work yesterday.
Secondly, I really dont understand all the complaints about how difficult it was to put together and how flimsy and unsteady the piece was.
If you have ever put a piece of furniture together, this is no different and no more difficult. Its not brain surgery people. Just follow the directions.
All pieces and hardware were well labeled and the directions, although did not contain step by step narratives, were easy to follow along with.
As for the reviews from people saying how unstable and shaky the product was, perhaps they need to tighten up some of the hardware. It is also very important to attach the stabilizing braces to the back of the piece once completely assembled.
I am thrilled with this beautiful piece and am using it in my master bath to hold towels, tissue, etc.. So glad I did not listen to all the negative reviews!
I was pleasantly surprised with this purchase. I bought this cabinet for my guest bathroom, and I have to say, it looks really nice. You would never know I only paid $128 for it. It was a breeze to put together for someone who is used to putting together furniture, took about 20 minutes. One reviewer mentioned stickers on the glass, but there where no stickers on my glass pieces to mess with, so maybe theyve stopped doing that? Anyhow, its a nice, solid piece, doesnt look cheap, and does in fact resemble real wood. Im completely happy and highly recommend--I might even get another one for the master bath!
The Elite shelved cabinet worked out very well for us (purchased through .com.) The day we received the shipment, my husband meticulously put it together. Following the number sequence and faithfully following the letters in alphabetical order is of absolute importance. To ensure stability, the corner reinforcements on the back of the unit are major requirements. However, the screws must be firmly but gently inserted or the possibility of splitting the material might occur. Gluing is not needed at all. The cupboard worked into a basement bathroom perfectly and provided that extra storage for bathroom tissue, hand towels or cleaner. This could be handy in a small hall, guest bedroom, or more than one for that extra storage as one person has already suggested. Worth the purchase.
I was looking for a sleek update for my bathroom when I came across this collection. When it came, there was an expected amount of assembly to do, but when all was said and done the end result could have been a little sturdier and the unit itself could have been better done. The small details like the metal washers that keep the glass in the door frames are visible when the unit is closed and the stickers provided to camouflage the cam-locks are cheap and I would have preferred the plastic ones Ive had with other pieces. Stickers were also placed on the glass that say Tempered Glass, but are practically covered up by the wood trim and were nearly impossible to get off (there is still some adhesive on it that drives me crazy!).
But its a nice piece of furniture and Im overall happy enough.
I used this in our Home Theater room to put candy in side and the popcorn popper sits on top. A little time to put together, but it is a good product for the money!
This is a very nice shelving unit. perfect for my bathroom towels. It was easy to assemble and was good for the price. I would recommend others to buy it.
Even after all the reviews, I decided to take a chance on this shelving unit. I thoughthow difficult could it be?
Ive put together A LOT of this type of furniture and when this arrived, it was no different. For a first timer, maybe I could see how it would be hard to understand the directions. But I thought it was very easy to put together.my 9 year-old helped me.
When it was finished I did notice a couple of small defects. Theres a small scrape or something on the front at the top that shows the bare wood underneath. Since its just under the lip of the top, I wasnt too concerned - you have to be sitting right in front of it at eye level to see it. The most noticable thing is that the doors arent aligned. The right side rubs at the top and the left side rubs at the bottom which creates a gap between the doors. Again, nothing major, but I had my handy husband realign the hinges.
All in all, a good deal on a shelving unit. I dont know how long it will last - since most things made these days dont last very long anyway. I wouldnt recommend putting something really heavy on it, like a TV - only because I dont know how sturdy it is. We have it in our bathroom.
Being that the product description is for wood/wood veneers, I was expecting something a lot cheaper in feel than we actually got out of the it, especially for the price. The piece feels weighted, and heavy, the glass doors open and close nicely, and the finish looks fantastic - not cheap or plastic at all. Would highly recommend, only reason I didnt give it 5 stars is because it isnt actually solid wood. But, truth be told, its the closest piece of many we have purchased that resembles real wood in look and feel.
