The assembly was a llitle work but once my wife and got started( we had 2 of them, and she did one as I did one) it went smoothly. It is not the sturdiest doors but very nice looking when closed properly. The shelves are very sturdy and can hold allot of your cans, tools,ropes and stuff left all over the place. I am looking to buy 3 more as I want to put all the open shelving things inside a closet and looks allot neater. Lastly the all tall brooms, shovels,trimmer and poles fit in there nicely. Make the best of what you get and if something is broken, call them and they will ship out the part you need. -- Good for the price and plenty of storage!
When I received this the directions were only in Spanish. Some of the parts were cracked. I'm sure it was returned, and no one bothered to check the contents, but for what I was using it for and the price it was fine. I could hide the cracked pieces. Once I put it together the doors don't shut perfect, but like I said it didn't matter to me. -- It was ok for what I needed it for.
This cabinet is actually very easy to assemble. Only really need a screw driver and a hammer to put it together (there are a few screws to secure the back wall) - I used the hammer to make sure everything was tightly in its place.
The only problem we came across is a couple days after we assembled it - there were some HEAVY winds in Los Angeles, and we kept this on our roof deck, where it was blown over and torn in half (we didn't have much in it to weight it down)- although it luckily only came apart where it was attached, half way up - so nothing was majorly damaged. It was tough reassembling it after this accident, but I was able to do it with a little force, and the hammer again.
We're able to store quite a lot in this and now that it's properly weighted down so it doesnt accidentally blow over again, it seems to be functioning great.
It is a good value, for only $99 -- I wasn't able to find any sort of out door storage that was a comparable price for the size -- other options were only like much larger storage sheds for hundreds of dollars, which I didn't really want to invest in as we live in an apt.
I would recommend this.
-- Great for the price.
Would love to show you a finished product but I can't since there was no hardware in the box. -- Bad News
First, this is a complete piece of junk, just very flimsey lightweight plastic. Second, the only directions you get are pictures that you have to match to the pieces with letters on them (no written instructions). I had a piece missing and had to call the company to send it. Third, I worked for hours trying to get the puzzle (pieces) to fit together. When I finished, I had 3 broken pieces (did not abuse them). The middle door just hangs there (because of a broken piece). None of the doors will open or close without you lifting up and pushing in at the bottom part of them. DO NOT BUY!!! IT IS A TOTAL WASTE OF GOOD MONEY -- A piece of junk!!
