We needed a linen closet, and this was an economical and attractive fix. So easy to put together. The only trouble we had was adjusting the doors with the hinges. While they were sturdy, they were not easy to adjust. Lots of room inside. Came on time, good purchase overall. I'll update when I put some weight in it.

We got 2 of these and I love them now that we're done putting them together. They were not HARD to put together but they were a tad difficult. It was really easy until it was time to put the doors on, we struggled a lot with the hinges. When we got to the second one, we put the hinges on the cabinet sides first, and then attached the doors to the hinges. It made it a lot easier and less frustrating. I especially love the adjustable shelves and how easy it is to change them. It was exactly what I needed to help me start getting my office decluttered and backstock reorganized!

I bought a Hodedah and had to return it for several reasons. I bought two, assembled one, and returned both with one unopened.

In the past, I have found that Sauder products, although pretty cheap in quality (and price) for the money are fairly sturdy, have decent instructions, are fairly easy to put together, and are worthwhile. This cabinet, of which I bought two, is a little better than what I remember Sauder cabinets to be. It seems they have made some improvements over the years.

I don't like the styrofoam in the packing, but it was packed well. Upon opening the carton the instructions were on top as was the bundle of parts, each part sealed in its labeled cell. Easy to do an inventory of pieces and parts. You get the exact number of parts needed in the instructions with the exception if 1" nails (tacks) for mounting the chipboard (cardboard) back of which you need 40, but they give you some extra. The only tools needed are a small hammer and a standard Phillips head screwdriver.

The predrilled holes were all where they were supposed to be and in proper alignment. I put together one cabinet by myself and with the other I had help. It goes pretty quickly if you're doing it all by yourself, but much more quickly if you have another person working with you.

The hardest part for one person alone is hanging the doors, but it's doable. You just position the top hinge and partially screw in the mounting screws. then you do the middle hinge, then the bottom hinge, all partially screwed in. Once all are on, then tighten all of the mounting screws. I think bottom to top on the tightening is best, but it doesn't really matter.

With two people one holds the door in place while the other screws in the hinges. Much easier than holding the doors yourself while screwing them on, but it's not essential that you have help. For all of the rest of the busywork, it just goes twice as fast with two people doing it.

It pays to also have some damp paper towels to wipe off the styrofoam dust that clings to the surfaces of all of the pieces. I like to wipe them down before assembly and touch it up afterward, but many people might not care.

I would have preferred that the back of the cabinet was particle board like the rest of the cabinet rather than heavy chipboard and that the top was finished. It is made with the assumption that the top will not be visible, so that surface is unfinished. If, however, you have it in a room where you can look down on it at all the unfinished top will stand out and reveal that it is a cheap piece of furniture.

The door hinges have three adjustments so you can get them positioned well once it is all assembled and in place. That is a bit of a chore, but not any more so for this cabinet as it is for any other piece of furniture of any quality that allows for door adjustment. The fact that it has the adjustment is a plus.

So for a self-assembly cabinet in this class of furniture, Sauder is probably the best you're going to find. This goes for any other furniture they make. In the past, I have purchased and built various Sauder products and they are always equal to or better than the same/similar products manufactured by their competitors. That was my experience with this cabinet as well.

I have a small bedroom, and am not a fan of dressers because I feel they take up a lot of floor space without providing a lot of storage. I also have a long window in my bedroom, so I also have limited wall space. When I saw these on sale on prime day, I bought 2, one for each side of my window. They are perfect...I have tons of storage space and have gone from 8 giant totes in my closet to 1. I put all of my clothes in these, and for socks, unders, etc, i just put a few bins on the shelves and it works perfectly. It took my son-in-law about an hour to put the first one together, and about 45 minutes for the 2nd one. He said they were well labeled and easy. One word of warning though, if you are a lady who lives alone, get help with these, they are HEAVY.

Once it is completely assembled it seems quite sturdy. Easy to assemble. Parts are labeled corresponding to written steps in the directions. Unlike other reviewers, these doors fit nicely and required no tweaking.
