HOMCOM71" Freestanding Buffet with Hutch, Kitchen Storage Cabinets,Pantry with 6 Doors, 3 Adjustable Shelves, and Drawer for Living Room, White

This is a pretty solid unit; we ended up with a couple minor deformities at the back on one side: one from a slightly crooked nail (user error) and one where a dowel didn't seat deeply enough and caused the adjoining surface to deform when the adjacent screws were tightened. It's not too bad though, and you'd only see the deformation if you're looking for it.Otherwise, the unit looks good and the doors and backpieces are well-aligned. The instructions were 90% super clear to follow and well-labelled. Two pieces weren't labelled, but we were able to identify them fairly easily. My only complaint with assembly is that in the instructions it wasn't clear what directions the finished edges should face, and we ended up with one piece technically upside down. But it's at the back of the lower cupboard and generally won't be seen.Overall a quality piece for what it is - yes, it's mass-produced pressboard, but it's as solid as it gets without buying actual wood furniture.

Ok so I purchased this, as I love to cook but due to pandemic and getting furloughed, I had to downsize my apartment and ended up with a new place with a much smaller kitchen and no where to store allllll my beloved kitchen possessions. I have never in my life taken on a project like this but, in an effort to save more cash, and with all the time in the world, I reluctantly installed it myself and saved a boatload of cash in doing so as it took me a day and a half. I also paced myself took walks, naps, made myself some food in between. And, I told myself that I would only hire someone to build it, if I got to the point where I couldn’t do it myself and that point never came. So the installation was smooth but, the time it took was a lot and since it was my first big project it was slightly nerve wracking. I learned I’m pretty handy with a drill and it’s amazing what we can accomplish when facing many challenges at once. As you can see from the images I provided, I’m using mine as my pantry.TIPS FOR CUSTOMERS: I ended up buying cabinet handles (and the drawer pull) to match the ones in my kitchen. They haven’t arrived yet so I’m just using the ones that came with this set until they do. I also purchased wire drawers that I stacked into one of the cabinets as pictured due to the lack of the number of drawers. I also used white caulk to fill in gaps between sections.POSITIVES: Its really sleek looking. Its really sturdy, so far. It does NOT wobble, as I expected it to. Time will tell?? The hardware for this cabinetry is by far the best quality. (The screws provided and the fiberglass are not that great quality but the handles and cabinet door brackets seem like really good quality.NEGATIVES: the wood itself was super cheap and so it chipped super easily when I was nailing parts. The counter top scratches very easily so I would suggest treating it with something before using it. I learned it the hard way and scratched it a lot. Will have to see if there is a way to improve upon that. The counter top is very low. I’m 5’6 so I’m not that tall to begin with but my kitchen counter and bakers rack and both have much taller counter tops for cutting/chopping/ mixing so I won’t be performing those tasks on this. When looking at it from the side it looks like it’s leaning forward. It’s not. But the gape between the wall and the cabinet increases with its height, as pictured.SUGGESTIONS for Manufactuer/distributor: would be cool if we could customize the materials ie: better quality wood, door handles, colors for changes in price obviously. Would also be super cool if we could choose the color of counter top. Would have saved me more time if the instructions were a little more clear. Would be so amazing if we could choose which side the drawer went on and or to add more drawers to it. Would be nifty if you guys offered tips/videos mon how to avoid or fix the concerns I mentioned (chipping of wood, scratching) ahead of time, so that the finished product was and remains better quality. As time goes on, I will update my review with any changes.

The finished product looks good, but 3 pieces were slightly marred at receipt. We decided to go ahead and assemble the cabinet with the defective pieces, as other customer feedback indicated their experience with replacement pieces to be more damaged than originals. The outer packaging was not damaged, so it likely occurred prior to or during packaging by the manufacturer. On the up side, the instructions were very easy to understand, which facilitated assembly. And as I said, the finished product looks quite nice.

This storage unit had saved my life.. I moved to a new place and needed this as an extra storage cabinet. It takes sometime to assemble but you can assemble it by yourself yiu just have to follow the instructions and be very careful as you progress in the assembly because it gets so heavy. You may need someone to help when it comes to putting the two big parts together for the final look.

Okay, purchased this because the product photo and the dimensions were right for my space. And it has a 4-star review by over 400 reviewers. What could be wrong about this??Well, the entire thing is made of fiber board. There are over 200 small parts and about 30 pieces of pre-cut/pre-drilled particle board. The surface material is a thin non-stick coating of some sort, and will not take paint well. The step by step instructions contained zero clarifying text, so I had to look ahead multiple steps to make sure the pieces were oriented correctly. The backing of this product is a compressed fibrous material, similar to cardboard. They didn't provide enough small nails to secure it fully, and the dimensions were too small not to leave a visible gap between pieces (the instructions did not adequately say or show how to position the backing material to avoid this). The chrome handle pieces are PLASTIC with gigantic metal screws that don't quite fit right (somehow the plastic didn't break when assembling this).For $300, save your money. Go get something from IKEA that might cost an extra $200. As for me, when I can replace this item, I'll be moving it to my garage as tool storage where hopefully it won't get as much use, and hopefully it won't matter that it becomes beat up/scratched up over time.Basically this entire product is made of sawdust. DON'T BUY!!
