SauderSelect Storage Cabinet/ Pantry cabinets, White finish

I’m really happy with this Sauder Storage Cabinet. It’s a great size—tall and deep enough to hold a lot, but still compact enough not to take up too much space. The assembly instructions were clear, all the parts were labeled, and everything aligned perfectly during setup.The cabinet is a bit thinner than I expected, but it still feels solid and strong enough to hold what I need. The doors could be a little sturdier, but the magnet closure at the bottom keeps them securely shut. I especially love the adjustable shelves, which make it really versatile for different storage needs.It looks great in the room and adds both style and function. I didn’t even need to bolt it to the wall—it’s heavy enough to stay in place on its own. A solid choice for any household, and easy for everyone to use. I’m happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend it!

The thing that I don't like about Sauder's storage cabinet is a tolerable issue. I hate "engineered" wood. At least this doesn't use particle board but some other, better product. Still, it's not real wood.On the other hand... I compared this to a somewhat similar cabinet made partially out of real wood and yeezers - it was over twice the price! So there's a place for engineered wood if the product is well built.Is Sauder's product well built? Yes... for what it is. It is engineered wood that's screwed together. Not real wood with joints and glue and screws. This isn't something your grandchildren will be using but you'll get 20 or more years out of it unless your kids beat it up. I mean, it should be durable under normal use but kids might wreck it. Kid do stuff like swinging from the doors or climbing on the shelves. And I wouldn't recommend moving these from house to house. I wouldn't be optimistic that an assembled cabinet would survive a moving company.What about the assembly? Ah, my assembly was easy! I hired somebody some contractors who were working in the building to do it. They had between 1 and 3 people on the job. It took them about 4 hours to assemble and install 2 cabinets. I've seen reviews say the doors don't align well. All the doors on these cabinet are perfect. These contractors do a lot of cabinet work. They're familiar with the door hinges and approve of them.How do they look? They look GREAT. Sauder even supplies little wood grain stickers to hide the screw holes.The cabinets have a ton of space and adjustable shelves. You can even remove the shelves on one side giving you 53" of vertical storage.I'm quite happy with these. They're a good value, they look good and I can store a LOT of stuff in them.

First, here’s what I like about these cabinets:They’re super easy to assemble. Well, that is compared to some products like this that I’ve assembled. The parts were clearly labeled, and the instructions were complete and easy to understand (and in English). No boo-boos on the first one – I ordered two of them – and the second one went together even more quickly.They look nice. The molding trim on the doors gives them more of a custom look than your average white, assembled, particle board cabinet. The handles are a brushed-chrome finish and the hinges are heavy duty as well. It was well packaged. Both boxes arrived undamaged and the contents were in perfect condition.Now, their shortcomings:Every piece of Sauder Furniture I’ve ever assembled (and that’s a bunch of ‘em) has been made of ¾ inch particle board. This one is NOT, it’s much thinner! It’s more like 3/8 inch. Really. Some pieces bend when you push on them. That is both good and bad. It makes the cabinet not so heavy to handle and assemble (two people can easily lift it, or maybe one strong person). But it’s NOT HEAVY DUTY. That’s clearly stated in the description, if you read it carefully. They say the weight limit for the upper shelves in 25 lbs and the bottom shelf 50 lbs. I would not, under any circumstances, put that much weight on every shelf because I'd be afraid of sagging. Maybe half that, but then I’m careful.I knew this and I need it for storing lightweight items, so it suited my purposes. But don’t go thinking that you’re going to stock this baby with gallons of paint. Please. So, for me it worked fine. It has a strap you can screw the top to the wall with, and I recommend that you use it, because it could tip over. I will keep you updated if it fails to hold up in the long run.As a Prime member, I buy a LOT of stuff from amazon. Living out in a rural area far from a city, amazon is my go-to source for many of my purchases. I must rely heavily on your product reviews to help me decide which item is best for me -- especially when I can't actually see, touch or hold the product.I take my personal product reviews seriously, and if something proves to be a piece of junk, I'll tell you - and if it's great or mediocre, I'll tell you that, too. My policy is to try to write the kind of reviews I want to read and to update my reviews if for some reason the product fails to perform as advertised during the period it's warrantied for. I do ask that if you found this review helpful in making your decision, that you please click on the "yes" button below.

This cabinet is nice, seems decently strong, and is attractive. The doors seem a bit flimsy but it’s not a big deal. I was able to fit my Instant Pot, Ninja Creami, Keurig, juicer, and many other items in it to clear counter space in my small kitchen (with room to spare)! I did search extensively for one deep enough for my large square air fryer. Sadly, the trim on the door and the center divider foiled my plans as it was not WIDE enough to slip in. But I moved my Kitchen Aide mixer from another storage area into this cabinet and it worked. I mention these appliances because the info would have been helpful in determining if it would work for me when I was searching hundreds of cabinet descriptions.It took me maybe 2-3 hours to put together alone, with breaks because my back was killing me! That being said, I was able to do it alone even with that physical limitation. The package was very heavy but the unit, once put together, was easy to relocate simply by dragging it on a towel across my hardwood floors. I would consider purchasing another if I needed it or if I had the space but the price also just jumped substantially after purchase ($50).
