Prepac 33" H Locking Cabinet with 7 Adjustable & 4 Fixed Shelves, Black Storage Cabinet, Display and DVD Storage 14.5" D x 24" W x 33.25" H

I have been searching for a decent media cabinet for quite a while now. I do not typically buy furniture online as you can not see the quality first hand before purchasing. After looking at every local store I could think of and only finding the cheap bookshelf type racks I turned to amazon to check out my options. I love the fact that this media cabinet is just that, a cabinet! I hate having all our dvds exposed on a shelf as its simply a eyesore to our living room. With this cabinet however everything is nicely hidden behind the doors and the unit itself compliments our furniture décor. The smaller size is perfect for our room however we do almost have it filled and may need to purchase a second one in the future. They do make a larger version of this unit however I think it would simply be too large for our living room.I read most of the reviews on this product and almost decided against it based on some of the more negative reviews. However this seemed like the best one out of all my other options so I decided to take a chance on it and glad I did so! We are very happy about the purchase! I do have a couple of points to make about the quality and build process....The locking feature is great especially as we have a little one on the way and this will keep them out of our dvd collection, however the lock is not the strongest thing out there but it does its job, I may make a couple small reinforcements to the locking mechanism to hold up to kids a little better in the future but for now it will keep the baby out. I may even has some small magnets to latch the doors closed instead of using the locks as some users here suggested but we will see. The left side lock works great and latches in tight however you must know its there to avoid breaking it by forcefully opening the door. Remember this is particle board and the left latch is plastic that is mounted to particle board so yes it can break if pulled on hard enough! I do not think this is a fault of product design. If your guests are going to open this with enough force to break the latches and locks off then maybe they need to keep their hands off your furniture!This is a particle(press board) board cabinet and not solid wood and some seem to think then disappointed with the quality. If it was solid wood this would be hundreds of dollars more. Im all about well built furniture but something like this is simply there to hold DVDs and nothing else so this does the job just fine and very affordable. For it being particle board is a very well built piece, Its sturdy once built and looks good. I have seen some pretty crappy particle board furniture(think walmart stuff) and this is much much better! It will not last a lifetime or being something you hand down for your kids but for what it is its great! Its just gotta hold DVDs, by the time my kids will inherit it dvds will be a thing of the past anyway!Speaking of assembly I did not find this very hard to build. It can be tedious with all the sections and small pieces involved but take your time and double check your parts orientation and it will go fine. I have read several reviews about "poor instructions" or "not strong enough to even be put together" or "the instructions are incorrect causing me to damage it" etc. I did not find any of these to be true. A lot of these type of furniture simply just screws or get nailed together. This actually has most of the holes pre drilled, uses cam locks and pins to hold it together and once tight its very solid, this also makes it easy to disassemble and reassemble if every needed. A tip for the build process.....Lay everything out of the floor and verify you have all the parts before starting your build. Follow the illustrations and take note of the orientation of the parts pictured on each step as there are some top and bottom, left and right panels that need to go a particular way. Take your time and double check your work and it will go smoothly. When done if there is a door not shutting correctly or hitting the top or bottom loosen and readjust the hinges. I had to make some minor adjustments to make the doors open and close nicely.In regards to it being damaged when it shows up. this was my biggest fear as there seemed to be several situations of this happening. Typically anything heavy that gets delivered at our place is ok as our UPS guys is decent with not throwing stuff around. This can obviously vary quite a bit and if you routinely get damaged packages you may not want to order this. Again this is not a fault of the product itself rather the shipping carrier and packaging used in most cases. I do feel the product could be packaged a little better for its weight to prevent shipping damage. When ours showed up I was a little worried as the box has some abuse on it. I checked everything out and only has a small ding in one of the shelves but nothing too bad. I always suggest to inspect your packages before taking delivery if possible. If there is noticeable damage refuse delivery or file a claim with amazon right away. Again not the products fault rather then the shipping method.All in all this is a great product and very happy with the overall quality and looks. If we need another one to fill up we will definitely be buying one!

Pros:- Holds a ton- Great customer service- Looks much better than open-storage optionsCons:- Doors need to be latched/locked to stay closedI needed to find a better way to store my blu-ray and DVDs and settled on this cabinet. The build wasn't terrible - the instructions are clear and easy to follow. It's a bit of a longer process since you also have to build the door shelves, but there's nothing terribly complicated. Total time was probably about two hours.As mentioned, the cabinet holds a lot. I had previously had two 36"x24" bookcases that were completely full. After moving everything over to the new cabinet, I have maybe half a shelf of dvds left over. Being able to keep nearly the entirety of collection in a single spot is great and frees up those shelves for other uses. Plus, it just looks nicer than the open-faced bookshelves.The customer service is also top notch. The cabinet arrived undamaged, but after assembling, I forgot to latch the right door before trying to move it. Unfortunately, the door to swung open which resulted in me dropping the unit, damaging it pretty severely. I emailed the company to see if I could buy replacement parts since it was 100% my own fault. They replied the next business day saying they were sending out the parts, which arrived in about a week. This was completely unexpected and incredibly appreciated.There are a few downsides, which others have mentioned. Probably my biggest complaint is the latch for the right door. It's just a plastic piece that goes up into the top of the unit. Since the door has to be closed to latch it, it can be a pain getting it lined up correctly, especially when the unit is full. The left door has a locking mechanism, which again needs to be in place in order for the door to stay closed. Annoying, but definitely not a deal breaker.Overall, I'm considering buying a second and will definitely be checking out Prepac's offerings when it comes to other furniture in the future.

Having read so many reviews on that the package arrived damaged or heavily scratched , I was very concerned and when the racking showed that the package was coming from Canada by the West coast (I am in Florida) I almost canceled the order .But, the package arrived in perfect condition with the box completely intact , so that was great .Everything inside , parts and pieces were in perfect condition so I proceeded to assemble the cabinet . Nothing was missing on the hardware , and everything was complete .Well, the instructions suck big time . I am very handy so I was able to put the pieces all together in about 3 hours , but it was difficult to follow , for sure .The cabinet looks great in my family room and storage a lot of dvds and cds . You would have to rumble with the position of the dividers but it is ok I am happy .Besides the instructions , I would give it a full 4 .5 stars .
