Cherry Finish 3-door Wardrobe

The end result looks good. However, the material is a bit thin and engineering a bit shoddy. It will likely not last a move. For example, the center vertical panel cracked when I screwed it to the bottom panel. I used some wood glue and kept a clamp on it while it was being put together. That was the only thing that kept it from splitting and breaking off. You can now see a small not very noticeable crack. I don't expect it to hold if I try to carry the unit to another room. Also, I agree with a lot of other reviews that say it is difficult to assemble. There were literally no hinges, screws or parts preassembled. There must have been over 200 pieces all together. It was easy to miss a step or install something backward. I got almost done when I realized that the fixed shelf above the drawers was backward. It should be flush to the back and inset from the front. Since I had it reversed I couldn't close the hinged door. I went back and looked at the instructions and you really couldn't tell that there was a right way and wrong way. I had to remove the already tacked (and boy there are a lot of tacks!) on back panel, and the top and right panels in order to fix the shelf. There was also a problem with the drawer glides. I swear I put them on the way the instructions showed, but they were upside down and reversed right and left. At least this was easy to fix though. It probably took me 8 hours over three different days to get this done, but I was working mostly alone. I was happy with the end result, but it is a bit flimsy. It creaks when I walk around the room. One of the front doors doesn't latch to the magnet and one of the other doors scrapes the top shelf. Most of these issues could be adjusted if there were levelers on the feet. Right now I have cardboard under one of them. All in all, I'd say it’s worth the price. I looked at some very nice furniture from Thomasville but couldn't shell out the $2,000+ it would take for an heirloom piece. This wardrobe will do nicely until I can afford something better.

We had recently moved into a new home. There is a bonus room that we are using as a bedroom for three of our four boys. This room does not have a closet. My husband who is very handy was originally going to build a closet, but after further thought, reconsidered because building a permanent structure would take away from the massiveness of this room should we ever want to convert it back to a bonus room. We started looking at wardrobes and found this one. I feel like for the price and quality it is an excellent buy. We put together furniture all the time and have a system down that works for us. It did take us about two hours to assemble. The only reason I did not give this five stars is because the tall door does not shut easily. You have to mess with it at the bottom to get it to shut and then it is a VERY snug fit. My husband is going to modify the inside of the large closet with a 2 x 4 so that the bottom will expand. This way the door will shut as it should. We feel like if something is built the way it is supposed to, you shouldn't have to do any modifying on something that is new. Despite this flaw, I would purchase it again.

My boyfriend is a professional carpenter and it took him and i 2 and a half hrs to assemble this. Poor engineering on the hinges. I think the time spent was worth it because it is a very beautiful piece of furniture and has lots of space for anything you want. we actually bought 2 of them. Would definitely recommend to others
