Furniture HotSpot Window Pane Media Cabinet - Oak

Amazing cabinet,easy to put together some of the directions can be a little scary be they are not really,My wife and I put it together quite quickly,I do a lot myself but I think most can put this together just take your time,Great sturdy cabinet

I originally ordered 2 of these, only 1 was shipped and delivered, and the other order was cancelled, I'm guessing due to lack of stock.I wanted this cabinet specifically for Blu-ray storage, and the 1 cabinet I received is really nice and sturdy, and very attractive. My only dislike is the shelf spacing which really limits how many Blu-rays the cabinet can hold. By re-drilling the holes for the shelf pegs, only permanently installing 1 of the 3 fixed shelves, and using the other shelves as adjustable, I was able to get a total of 6 shelf surfaces (including the bottom shelf, but not the top of the cabinet) inside the cabinet. This allows for the storage of between approximately 240-270 Blu-rays and 4K's.These must be very popular because they are out-of-stock everywhere I look online. I'll buy another one, or more, as soon as they are available again.

This is going to be a long one, but I am giving both advice and my two cents on this thing, so read it all.This piece is quite multi-functional, so far anyway. I purchased it because I needed a place to store/show pieces that I have produced in my schooling but I didn't want to have a large glass case when it wasn't overly necessary; in addition, this could store other things along with my pieces so as to combine elements into one area. The packaging was well done, the pieces were secure when I unwrapped the boxes. I was able to take the pieces out without any real struggle other than some of them were a little heavier than I anticipated when I first grabbed them. The pieces themselves are quite lovely, the grain of the surface is very natural looking and has a finished quality. I was able to take the pieces out and separate them fairly simply, they were labeled with stickers that came off (fairly) easily but some of them I had to use my fingernail to edge them off, but for me that wasn't anything I was concerned about because the stickers were mostly placed in spots you wouldn't normally see, like on the underside of the shelf pieces. Assembly was fairly straight forward; there was a worded description on how to put the pieces together along with the graphic detailing what to put where. The main drawback of the graphic was that some of the pieces of hardware were tiny; if you hadn't used the combination of the cam bolt with the cam lock before, it might have been a little confusing at first. However, they had labels on certain pieces that were then repeated along with having slight differences in the hole sizes for the different pieces which helped in both making sure you had the sides going the correct way and also where each piece went. Some of the holes for the cam bolts were fairly snug so I had to use the little hand piece they included to fully screw them into place, but it is able to be done. Also, that does give a sense of security, because then combined with the other hardware, those pieces aren't going to be moved very easily. When assembling, I would recommend following the suggestions of how the directions tell you to put it together - with a couple changes as far as what position the directions make it appear, versus what might be easier. When they have you put the top piece on, the assembled (what is on it, anyway) looks upright as if they want you to do it standing up. I would definitely recommend doing as much assembly as possible while it is laying on the floor. I was able to put the top on, as well as all the pieces to attach the doors (including the hinges and door pulls) while it was still laying down. This, in my opinion, is a lot easier to do, because then you're not fighting gravity nearly as much. I was able to have the door laying on my lap while I was screwing in the hinges on it, which made it very easy to line up the holes. Also, make sure you test which way the hinge will go, because otherwise if you're not familiar with them, there is a very good chance you could put them on backwards. I was lucky and I guessed correctly - but please be careful with that, because you don't want to put them all on and then realize you have a nice cabinet and the doors will be backwards. Also, you might notice that then you have doors on a piece that you would still need to attach the back to. Well, since I wanted to keep it on the floor, what I did was just tape the doors down with masking tape and had them as secure as I could get them, and then flipped it over carefully so that I could attach the back without too much hassle. There are holes pierced in the back, but some of the holes on the back of the frame are either mismatched or maybe mine just wasn't drilled properly, but the screws still go into the back at least a small portion so it will work for that purpose. My dad helped me getting the piece upright after I fully assembled it (yes, I did it on my own). The two adjustable shelves (the others are fixed with the sides of the piece when it is assembled) are very easy and smooth to slide into place. The result is a beautiful piece to put quite a few different options of objects. It can be used for the music/movies/dvds, but just FYI... it works for lots of things.

I have been waiting for these to come back in stock. I ordered 2 to go on either side of my fireplace. I loved the look but wasn't sure what the quality would be like since they were not expensive. Let me tell you, they look great in my livingroom and the quality is very good. They seem very sturdy and all of the edges line up perfectly. I am very happy with my purchase.

We love this cabinet. The assembly instructions are just pictures but easy to follow along. It seems sturdy enough. Definitely needs to be attached to the wall to keep it from tipping. A little expensive for what it is but it is a nice looking cabinet.

What beautiful workmanship with these CD cabinets. Really great quality!! Was worth getting them!!

It’s a decent enough unit and what you would expect (Chinese pressed board, funky formaldehyde smell, cheap fasteners) for the price.Surprisingly the doors lined up perfectly, and while there is a gap in between them (and no way to adjust this), it otherwise looks pretty good, especially from a distance.It is lightweight and narrow. I did not secure it to a wall, and I am instead using the weight of items stored to help hold it in place. Otherwise, simply opening the doors (there’s a magnet that provides good resistance and to keep them shut) will have you tipping it over.The reason I’m ultimately giving one star is because one of the cam lock bolts required was not in the bag. Because of this, I was unable to fully secure the top piece of the cabinet, which is pretty critical given how few points of contact there are. I’m trying to contact SEI (the manufacturers) to see if they will send me another bolt. If not I’ve already completed it and the box is gone so I’ll have to make due.

It was easy to put together, and the instructions were easier to follow than Ikea, since they actually numbered all screws and such, and put letters on the wood. But you have to be really careful, because the thin particle board will break if you put any stress on it. Don't screw in the bolts as far as they'll go, only screw them in until you can't see the screw threads, because it won't stop when it reaches the correct height. I put one in too deep and the cam wouldn't catch properly, and I ended up splitting the wood on a shelf trying to tighten it. Luckily I was able to glue it back together.Despite the cheap materials, it looks pretty good, far better than other particle board furniture I've gotten over the years. I think the finish is made of thin sheets of real stained wood.
