I live in a studio apartment, so storage is always a challenge. I was looking for something lightweight, easy to assemble, and reasonably priced. I was a little hesitant to purchase this because of some of the reviews, but they honestly didn’t do this product justice—I’m very glad I went ahead and bought it. This unit provides a surprising amount of storage. I use it for a variety of items, from glass food storage containers to books. It looks great in my apartment and is aesthetically pleasing. It doesn’t look cheap or low quality at all. I specifically didn’t want something made of heavy particle board that would feel bulky and cumbersome, and this fits exactly what I was looking for while still holding a lot. Even though it’s made of plastic, it’s quite durable and stable. It doesn’t wobble or tip, and it supports moderately heavy items well. That said, common sense applies—heavier items like books are best stored on the bottom. Assembly took a little time at first, but once I figured out the process, it came together quickly and easily. One thing I saw in other reviews was concern about the small door clasps. I agree they’re not very functional. However, this really isn’t an issue. The doors stay closed on their own and are fairly firm, so the clasps aren’t necessary. In fact, they’re more trouble than they’re worth. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase and would definitely buy it again.
