Sauder Select Storage Cabinet, Pantry Cabinet Kitchen Storage with Adjustable Shelves, Bathroom Storage Cabinet, in Highland Oak

I read the reviews before purchasing and was felt like I was pleasantly surprised once I got everything out of the box. The box itself was super well packed and even had thick cardboard attached/glued to each edge for extra support. There were no dents or holes in the packaging whatsoever. Everything is labeled for easy assembly, screws, pieces, brackets, ect. The cabinet sides and doors are a little thin, however, if you're not kicking the thing, it won't be a problem. There are two magnets that hold the doors shut, and honestly, they're a little strong for the weight of the doors, so I may set them a little further back to accommodate, as they make the doors more difficult to open. I was able to assemble the entire thing by myself, but would have appreciated a second pair of hands to mount the doors. I started with the center hinge and used my foot to steady the while putting the other two hinges in place (on each door) and then tightened once they were all on. You can loosen the stopper on the back of each hinge and that helped with getting the doors to close without a huge gap at the bottom. I may adjust further, we'll see. This cabinet does hold quite a bit, and I'm still figuring out what goes where. I mainly purchased this cabinet for pantry space as my kitchen cabinets are not deep or high enough for cereal boxes and at 5'5" the cabinets themselves are too high for me comfortably reach anything placed in them. My kitchen does have a lot of storage space, just not as easily accessible as I'd like. This cabinet solves those issues. Now the less used items can live on those high shelves and my food can be easily grabbed without ten other things falling down. A couple of recommendations: Have patience with assembly and lay out all of your pieces beforehand. The instructions show what pieces go where, so I laid them out according to what I was working with and when. I have vinyl flooring so I used the box as a mat to assemble on (which worked surprisingly well), but I would say use the box or a carpeted area so you don't scratch the pieces (I did knock one part into another and made a tiny and barely noticeable dent, so try not to do that either). Make sure you have plenty of space, I only had my kitchen area to put this together and would have loved to have been able to not be right up against my stove and cupboards while screwing the sides onto the top/bottom. Also, get yourself a ratcheting screwdriver, it seriously saves your hand.

I purchased this 71-inch Sauder storage cabinet to help clear out some clutter, and it has turned out to be the perfect solution for my needs. Right now, I am using it to store a mix of miscellaneous electronics, board games, and dog toys. It holds a surprising amount of gear while keeping everything completely organized and out of sight behind the closed doors. Putting it together was a breeze. I handled the entire assembly process by myself from start to finish without running into any issues or alignment problems. For the price point, the build quality is impressive, and it looks great in the room. The color and finish look fantastic, and the overall dimensions let it slide perfectly into the specific corner I had picked out for it. Once it was completely loaded up, the cabinet felt quite sturdy and stable. With a tall unit like this, I definitely recommend utilizing the included safety strap to anchor it securely to the wall for extra peace of mind. Overall, this is a high-quality, budget-friendly piece of furniture that functions exactly as advertised. I would highly recommend it to anyone needing to add some versatile storage to their home.

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.

We bought three of these units originally, and then returned to buy one more. They look good and work well. Happily, the directions were clear and easy to read. The predrilled holes were all in the right places, and installation went very smoothly on all four units. They take a while to put together, and you really need a power screwdriver - yes, you technically could do with a manual screwdriver, but it is so much faster and easier with even a cheap power screwdriver. I am fully impressed with these cabinets. The shelves are adjustable, and it seems well made and should last a long time of regular use. We bought the grey color cabinets, and the color is just right. Thank you

Every hole lined up perfectly, no missing pieces or misthreads! Assembly was very simple, just a bit time consuming, which means to me that it is solidly constructed. The planks are a little thin but it’s not solid wood so I expect that. The instructions were clear and (purposefully) comical. It’s a nice looking cabinet too!

So, this is a solid value for the money. It is a big storage cabinet with lots of space and a reasonable amount of options for shelving (could be more). Assembly was a bit of a pain; this might be a me problem, but I had to disassemble a few times because I had some board in the wrong orientation or wrong place. I believe the directions could have been more clear. The big reason for the lukewarm review is the unit's sturdiness. It's fairly fragile. I put in some L brackets to help, plus it's in a corner so it has the wall to brace it. If it wasn't in a corner I probably would have attached it to studs on the wall to help shore it up more. Other people used glue to help keep it together; lucky for me I did not do that because the deconstruction events would have been more disastrous. It's made of particle board, but that's what you get at this price range. The door hinges I only figured out from the last time I built something like this (a decade or more ago). If you don't understand how to use the door hinges correctly, the doors will not close, and they will be crooked. Find a video on YouTube if you don't know (or, ahem forgot) how these work. On the plus side, it is attractive, and looks nicer than it is. You have options on shelving placement. The doors close with a satisfying click with the magnets. And there's a lot of storage inside. For the money, I don't know that you can do much better, just keep in mind what this is.

I ordered 8 of these cabinets for my basement. 50% or 4 of them arrived with damage to the left door. This seems to be very common. Some were punctured, some were snapped in half, and the others had massive scars on the door. Thankfully this company has a good replacement part policy. I was able to go on their website, go to "service" and then "order replacement parts" and fill out the form and get new doors for all of them. The links to their website can be found on their amazon store in the help section or you can just google Sauder. Keep the manual though, it's required for the replacement to be processed because they want the model and lot number from the manual. The pic I've included shows the line of 5 cabinets plus 1 damaged one in the middle that's still awaiting the replacement left door. Once the shelfs are built they are light weight not durable, but look good and are very functional. The side panels are all very light weight and feel like they are made out of super thick cardboard, or super thin composite board. Overall, I'm very pleased with my purchase. I better be, I spent about $2,000 on all of these lol. Only 1 of the 8 was wobbly and I put it between two of the other cabinets which hides the wobble. I got so good at building these I can now build one in 1 hour 20 min flat without the instruction manual. Super easy steps to follow. The only step that is a gotcha is on page 9 step 5. When you put the center together make sure you screw in the two S82 screws into Q/X. The instructions aren't well marked there so that tripped me up twice and I ended up with extra screws. This shelf comes with no spare parts so if you have extras, go back to the manual and figure out what you missed. The doors are super easy to adjust and it's makes it easy to put these side by side and make them all match. I had zero issues with the structure of the shelfs, the holding capacity, the build, or the look. They all turned out great and match the well side by side. Anyways Godspeed, and I hope you enjoy the shelves as much as I did. If you want a good looking, functional storage shelf, I'd recommend this one.

I own several pieces of Sauder furniture that are sturdy and look nice for the price, so I ordered this for my home office...big mistake. This is NOT the same quality as most Sauder furniture. BOTTOM LINE: Aesthetically it is not nice-looking up close and in person...and functionally it is not at all sturdy nor adjustable (enough)...so it's basically an over-priced hunk of pressed wood/thin particleboard. I'm quite sure that if I listed it on Craigslist (to avoid having to haul it to the dump), I likely couldn't get twenty bucks for it since it is so flimsy it would fall apart when someone tried to move it. More details: 1) Not sturdy. You can push it and watch it sway. A minor earthquake (the kind you sleep through) will probably topple it. Don't expect to store books, canned goods, or anything even moderately heavy in it. The shelves will bow or break for sure, probably in less than a year. I doubt it will even withstand office supplies or blankets/linens long term. Maybe rolls of yarn, pillows, or stuffed animals. Pictures from other reviewers showing other items inside are almost certainly taken right after assembly and loading it up, not after six months or a year, which is when the problems from weight and daily use will occur. 2) No extra hardware is included, not even a single 1-cent nail, so you better hope it's all good...mine was not. One of the small screws was manufactured without the slots in the head for the screwdriver so obviously it was unusable...I had to make a trip to the hardware store to find a screw that size (unusually small). Time + money. 3) My back panel came with the pilot holes drilled on the wrong side. The holes should have been on the unfinished side because that side is supposed to face out (and go against a wall where you can't see it). The finished side is what you should see behind the shelves when you open the cabinet doors. Without the pilot holes to guide you, you could probably figure out how to nail around all the edges, but how to get the nails into the center panel?? Not happening without pilot holes. So I had to nail it on with the finished side out (grrrr) and now I see an unfinished piece of cardboard every time I open the doors. I see photos from another reviewer and although they didn't comment on this, their back panel was wrong, too...not as noticeable on a white cabinet, but still bad. 4) The back panel side edge is unfinished. It's only a few millimeters thick, but I find it annoying they couldn't coat it with the same dark brown color as the unit (or white for a white unit). From the side of the cabinet, you can see the thin edge of the back panel which looks like (and is) a piece of tan cardboard. Poor design. 5) The top is mostly finished, but not completely. The edges of a couple of pieces are unfinished so if you're putting it somewhere you can see the top, be warned. On the dark brown cabinet it's especially noticeable. 6) The design uses a ton of screws (plus small nails for the back panel) and not cam locks or any concealed hardware. So once assembled, you can see all of the dozens and dozens of screw heads. They are slightly recessed and to solve the problem of seeing them, Sauder gives you a sheet of round stickers to put over the screws. Dozens of little stickers that don't come off the sheet easily. Nor do they look nice once applied. This unit should not be put inside the house or in a living space--from an aesthetic standpoint it is really only suitable for a garage, attic, storage room, etc. 7) The shelves are adjustable but not to a large degree. Why they couldn't drill a few more holes to give more placement options is beyond me. As someone else pointed out, the center panel is fixed and prevents wide/large items from being stored. So ironically, some of the most suitable items to store, weight-wise, like blankets and pillows, will not fit inside. 8) Assembly: not the worst I've encountered and the directions are fairly clear. However, in today's age of assemble-it-yourself furniture there are way better designs out there that are easier to put together and yield a nicer looking product in the end. I highly recommend you keep shopping--you can do better. I will be calling on Monday to see what my options are, as this cabinet is worth no where near what I paid for it. I wouldn't give forty bucks for it.

No surprises. Came in 100 pieces. Took 1/2 to put together. Looks great and very useful. I happy with the product

Venia en malas condiciones ademas de que el material es de muy mala calidad,se le pueden meter los cucarachos

Estoy consiente que no lo mande hacer a un carpintería. Pero en verdad esta sumamente caro para la calidad. Las tablas están super delgada muy frágiles. Uno las toma para comenzar a armar y parece que se van a doblar y quiebra. Les recomiendo que a ese precio mejor ir con un carpintero. Da el gatazo, pero una vez que lo abres, lo armas, te das cuenta que pésima calidad.

I don't know about some people's fuss about the quality of work. I like it. The finishing it nice. It is nicely polished so its smooth. This DIY was probably has the easiest instructions I've had ever. Some DIY will only give you a paper with one phone with an essay on it. I noticed it is manufactured in Thailand? Nice job on them too.
