As per all of the other reviews, the quality of the materials is not very good. Besides the wood/veneer, the metal locking screws are rather wimpy. When trying to tighten them up, 2 of them totally broke. Also, the wood knobs for the sliding doors were missing.

I bought this to go under the junior loft bed. I really liked the bed, but the cupboard was not made as well. When assembling this piece, make sure the cabinet is square in order for the doors slid properly. Overall it needs more support, or stronger framing material. Not bad for the price and what it is. Looks nice & fits well under the bed as shown.

Cons: Unfortunately there was a major problem with the construction of the two doors in the one I got. They were made about 3/16 to 1/4 inch too short so that even when the plastic tabs on them were extended to engage the upper tracks, the doors wouldn't stay in place and fell out of the unit. I had to go to the store and buy some wooden dowels to glue into the slots on bottom. Then I planed the dowels down to the right thickness and glued the plastic tracks on top of them. This brought the door up enough to engage into the upper tracks - but it was a good bit of trouble.
So be aware that you may need to return it (very heavy package) or do some modifications on it if yours has this problem.
Some other minor cons: the finish is pretty easily scuffed and...Read more
