The great thing about ordering this cabinet from amazon.com is that it is delivered so you don't have to figure out how to get it into your car. I bought two of these and two of the 2 door cabinets. I much prefer the 4 door. They're easy to assemble following the directions and are really sturdy. The only drawback, though, is that the shelves are not adjustable, they're part of the support system of the cabinet. I am pleased with this cabinet; it's an easy way to help get your garage organized.

While I will agree that the shelves are designed in this unit to hold alot of weight, please be aware that the plastic walls and doors are not that heavyduty. It was easy enough to put together, all you need is patience to line up the holes, and a rubber mallet to secure the panels. However, I am disappointed that the doors do not stay shut and are difficult to open and close (don'w swing smoothly). It is good that one can put a padlock in each door, as I fear that will be the only way the things will stay shut. Therefore, a 3 star rating. I would suggest you plan on using this indoors only.

I ordered three of these cabinets through Amazon since I had bought one previously at Target and liked it.

Unfortunately, it wasn't exactly the product they sold at Target, and not packed the same way either. They all arrived when I was not home and were in boxes that were in such bad condition (due to only 1/8 inch thick cardboard and NO packing material), the UPS man would not even take them to the door, but left them on the driveway. As I tried to take them inside my house, the boxes continued to disintegrate. The front of one box must have completely come off at one point in the shipping process as it was taped on all sides. That box was missing two of the poles needed. Amazon was no help--kept telling me I needed to contact Rubbermaid. The boxes were so bad I couldn't even return the item unless I paid for all new shipping materials. And this would be no small task, as this is a BIG cabinet and one would have to find a very larger container to put these items in so one could take them to a shipping company to properly pack.

I have been buying things for years at Amazon and this truly has been the worst experience to date.

These cabinets are great if they come with all the parts. I ordered three of them with Amazon and all of them came in boxes that were damaged and opened. One of the three did not come with all the parts and did the box was destroyed beyound the ability to use it to ship it back. Amazon was helpful in the return only after I insisted that they take it back instead of making it a rubbermaid issue.

I do have to say that the units that did come with all the parts are working as promised. They are a little rough around the edges since they are formed plastic, but overall I think they are great for general storage purposes.

Although this product is a great storage solution, the packaging is inadequate at best. My unit arrived in a shredded, low-grade cardboard box, with a massive quantity of tape applied by the UPS delivery people. I tried in vain to assemble the unit but the panel corners were crushed. Again, not the fault of Amazon.com but a combination of poor packaging by Rubbermaid and poor handling by UPS.
I'd recommend that you plan on being home when your unit arrives and refuse the delivery if there is any external damage. Once you open this item you'll never get it back in the box.

WOW!!! This is a very nice product. Very easy to assemble, took about 20 minures. In less than 1/2 hour I had everything in it and everything in it's place. The room had been a mess and now it's so organized. I think I'll order another one for the garage. I'm using this one for a catch all sun room that didn't have a chance to shine.
