Corona Sideboard 2 Door 2 Drawer Solid Pine Living Room

I have installed the cabinet in my kitchen dinner, looks good with my pine dining table and chairs. My son put it together for me and was impressed with where all the holes were drilled in the right places. It’s very sturdy and has eliminated clutter from my dining table, good storage, works well for me. Great value for the money.

Lovely unit exactly as described looks more expensive than it is

I give 4 stars, because it was a nightmare to put together. If you skilled and have experience putting together flat pack furniture you have an adventage. Otherwise I don’t recommend to start with this one. The different parts were not signed so I had to figure out each piece what is what and where it goes feom the instructions, also there were no pre drilled holes when you attach two piece together so you have to make the holes as you screw them together it took a looong time to finish and it was very very tiring. The piece itself is beautiful and sturdy, it looks great, but the experience of the hard assembly made it bittersweet.

Easy to follow build instructions

Very pleased with this unit good quality as described will buy from seller again

After two and a half hours we gave up,supplied with. Screws that were not long enough and as for the plans they are a joke too small the letters that were in the seale.d packet s didn’t correspond with anything i could go on don’t bother

I already have a Corona Book shelf, TV unit and Merchants Chest. And always had room from a sideboard but only recently got around to acquiring it. The Book shelf, TV unit, Merchants chest were acquired about 10yrs ago, of which the chest and TV unit gave me a couple of assembly issues. So, I had an idea of what I was getting myself into with this sideboard. I'm not comfortable paying hundreds of pounds for furniture that I'll rarely see, i.e I spend most hours at work, in the gym or out. So, this sideboard's practicality (for my needs) and price point were enticing enough. This sideboard's quality is much better than the Corona items that I'd previously bought. The pine sections are of a better quality, and on the whole the fixing holes match up. Instructions are just diagrams that require patience and an eye for small details. i.e. fixings that are very similar in dimensions but have very different purposes. Also, some wooden sections of internal frame work are very similar but different. So, watch out. It is also important to obey the advice that power tool for screws must not be used, as the wood can split with ease when using power tool, in my experience. Warning on storage: I didn't have time to immediately put it together, though I checked the contents right away, and stored it in my garage. My garage isn't insulated and prone to high humidity. So, when I got around to assembly I found that the doors, which are prefabricated and made of several bits, had warped a little and became wider than the its opening. But once I brought them into my house, and left them for a couple of days they returned to their original shape. The drawer bottoms and backing are made of 4mm MDF, which is of a much better quality than my other Corona furniture. Assembling one of the drawers took a little shimmying to get the base in. The corona pine look as it is, looks great on a warm sunny day in my living room. Value: I purchased this at £62.99 and regard it as value for money, but I've seen it advertised for £99 (in its basic form). Though I've also seen upscaled specimens at £136. The basic item is not, in my opinion worth £99. Upscale: Since, I've had the Corona furniture for a while now, it's time for a change and I recently discovered furniture upscaling blogs. This Corona furniture can be painted. So, this item was part assembled and then I got creative. I purchased new round drawer & door handles, Blum soft close concealed hinges and Rust oleum chalky furniture paint (Winter grey) & polish. And I varnished the top and shelf a warm oak. It makes for a spectacular transformation. Though I must admit the cost of the upscale materials exceeds the cost of the sideboard, but only just. (I had intentions of sharing photos of my upscale efforts but I think they've temporarily removed the button to attach photos - not enough people to review photos due to covid19)

I had already bought the bigger brother to this one with the Antique wax finish and this one did not disappoint. It just looks much more expensive than it costs and goes togther very well. So impressed that I have just ordered the matching coffee table. Very happy with the purchase.
