time consuming and difficult to assemble. It does not stand up solid. I am afraid it will tip over if I put it on the carpet!

As others have said the directions are not very good. - put the top on last. The only other complaint I have is that the middle shelf is in the wrong place. I use this cabinet for DVDs. If you aligh the first 2 shelves for DVD height the third shelf and the bottom shelf can only hold CDs. I bought 2 and they look great.

I was a bit hesitant to order this cabinet after reading some rather negative reviews. I ordered two cabinets. They both arrived in perfect condition. I had my 13 year old niece that was visiting ask to put the lst one together. She didn't have any problems, and I put the other one together. I had no problems. It took about 3 hours to put each together. They look great on each side of my oak mantel in my 1925 bungalow. Even though the description says they are cherry, they still look great with the other stained woodwork in the living room.

This unit blends nicely with our other furniture in the family room. Easy to assemble. Look at the pictures, do not read the instructions. Takes about 90 minutes to complete (including glue dry time) PS make placing the glass into doors last your last item.

When I ordered this I had read the reviews and had no grand illusions but when it arrived I was very pleasantly surprised. There were no broken parts at all. My son-in-law put it together in about 2 1/2 hours and had very few problems. We collect pocket dragons and it proved to be the perfect place for them. There were a few nicks here and there that had to be touched up with some dark stain but overall it is very nice. It currently is in my foyer and everyone who visits comments very positively on it. Thank you Overstock!!!!

I am overall happy with the appearance of this cabinet but not very happy with the workmanship or the assembly. It did not fit together well and we had to make some modifications to make it level. One of the glass panes arrived broken but Overstock immediately sent me a replacement panel, no problem. Now that it is level, it looks great and fits tons of CDs, I just don't want anyone to look to closely at the workmanship

Ihave purchased alot ofthings from over stock.comand really have neverbeen disappointed.However, I was disappointed once I recvd themediacabinet-that once assembled, it doesn't stand up correctly. You have to actually attached the hinges to your baseboards in order to make it stand up correctly.It leans now as I am notgoing to ruinmybaseboards by nailing it into itas to ensure it's levelness. I wish I would have known thatpriorto buying it. It does have a good quailty of appearenceandit is a worthy price for the product.

I'm not new to furniture assembling by a long shot but this project had me ready to pull my hair out about 1/2 way through it. After several hours the first night, I decided to walk away from it and finish it another time. I finished it the 2nd night but I must say it was a challenge and I used some words that weren't too ladylike. The instructions were o.k. until about mid way - and could have used more detail to help eliminate some of the confusion. Also, the color is not anywhere close to cherry wood. I have a beautiful cherry wood entertainment piece for my wide-screen TV and the difference is so drastic that I will not sit them next to each other which kind of defeats my whole reason for ordering it. The good news is that I completed it in 2 evenings; it does look nice once completed, yes it definitely needs to be mounted to a wall or something when completed so that it's stable (something they should say right here in the details of the product so that you know in advance) and yes, it holds a ton of CDs. I would recommend it to a friend but only after explaining the trouble I had when putting it together and also letting them know about the color. Actually, I'd insist that they come over to see mine first. This was my first time ordering from Overstock and I will probably order again when I find something I need or want.

The instructions for this unit were not clear in certain areas and became confusing, but eventually we got it together. It also was not evident that it needs to be mounted to the wall in order to stand straight. I would have preferred a free standing unit that would not tip forward if I open the doors. However, I do like the way the unit looks when completed.

I wanted something nice, to hide my crafts in so they could be in the family room. This works perfect. Thanks

The craftsmanship is very poorly done, and you have to adjust it just right. Therefore, once assembled it looks beautiful.

(sorry but this piece is very pretty.) however the workmanship is not good.for the price you pay you do not want chips & scratches, pieces broken. that is what i ended up with. i will not buy anything like it again without seeing it first.

I really love this cabinet. It was a little on the difficult side to put together, but is well worth it.

Rating

Then this is it. Yes, you can read previous reviews about design flaws and less-than-highest-quality material; but the bottom line is this piece really looks quite elegant, stores a heck of a lot, and I am even thinking of getting another! Yes, my husband assembled it - he is good at that - looked at it as a positive challenge and had not a hitch in the process. Yes, the material is NOT pure wood, but you know, I have 200 year old antiques of solid wood near it and it holds its own very well. My humble opinion: this piece is totally worth it. If you like Cherry wood, if you like a vintage feel (Queen Anne?), if you think in a positive way about the assembly process and try to have fun with it, and you want something nice that can fill a 5'x5' spot on that lonely white (or burgundy!) wall -- this cabinet is truly beautiful. Nothing more, nothing less, it is a gem...

The good: - Nice cherry wood color - Very attractive design - Roomy and serves the purpose The bad: 1) The box arrived with parts hanging out, indicating poor packaging of the product, but no parts were missing. 2) Most of the pieces are low quality MDF that may easily chip and break up during assembly. Some pieces on the front appear to be nice solid wood. 3) The unit after assembly was still not sturdy and extra reinforcement was necessary. The 2 panel doors are too heavy for the rest of the unit that if you open them with the unit empty, the unit falls forward. 4) Given the questionable sturdiness, think twice about buying this if you have small children who would be playing near it.

Product when finished is eye appealing. Assembly is a slow process - lots of pieces to assemble - however the windows for one of the doors needed an additional cutting at local store, which was an inconvenience. So quality control of the windows was not up to par. I would recommend this cabinet to others but you do need patience to assemble. Thank you for making this product available for sale, however finished product is a very nice looking piece of furniture.

I needed an inexpensive, relatively nice looking cabinet to store books... and that's what I got. The materials are not great (one panel splintered when I assembled it) but the finished product looks pretty nice.

Rating

What a waste of money and time. First of all the glass came broken, and it is soooo cheaply made! The instructions are ridiculous, almost impossible. Please save your money and frusration!

Assembly is never fun. The plan was good but with just a few items ever so "slightly" off it lead to frustration, misalignment and redo's. End product looks pretty good.
