Over the past year I've discovered that it can be an arduous task to find quality media storage, and I can assure the curious consumer that price is no indication of quality. These Windowpane shelves, however, retail for around $150 and I've been reasonably pleased with them.
The finish is very nice, it's nearly black with a subtle woodtone, and the unit as a whole just looks great. The sliding glass doors work well, though items placed in the middle where the two doors intersect are difficult to access.
The one major quality complaint is that the shelves will slightly bow over time, especially if they're used to hold television DVD sets (which I do). Most media storage units are actually designed with compact discs in mind, so if you stock them with DVDs you find the bottom shelf will be too small to stand the DVDs up and you'll have to lay them on their sides. This one, however, holds all of the DVDs perfectly upright as it's supposed to.
I agree with the reviewer here that it's a good idea to buy locally if possible, the packaging isn't very protective. Assembly time will be approximately an hour, possibly shorter if you're accustomed to assembling DIY furniture.
As always, buyer beware! I bought another media storage unit from Atlantic thinking it would be the same quality as this one, and it most certainly was not (the unit I refer to is the Atlantic Drawbridge - Media storage cassette, VHS, DVD, CD, you can read my review of that piece of trash by following the link).

The one star in this review is for the custome service we dealt with in getting our money back.
I've seen this cabinet whole and complete (we got one just like it from a different retailer that ran out after our purchase) and it is beautiful and functional. When we ordered it from Amazon.com independent retailer, it was a whole other story.
The cabinet was shipped in pieces, which wasn't a problem as it is easy to put together. The problem was it was shipped in one box with the doors touching the outside edges of the box. If they would have shipped this in its orginal box inside another box with a bit of packing, there would not have been a problem. The first time we got it, the glass was damaged as was the doors. The second time, the glass was intact, but the doors were again damaged. The problem was that the line along the bottom and top of the doors that fits into the grooves so the doors slide back and forth were split and cracked making the items unrepairable. The wood is a composit and fragile. The main casing was also scratched and dented, again from the lack of proper packing.
In conclusion, if you can find this cabinet locally, go for it --its very nice. If you need to order it from anywhere, I would be wary and probably shy away from it. One wrong shift in packing and this thing is done for.

Putting it together was something of a challenge for me (maybe just my skill set). Halfway through I thought this was a mistake... But when it was finished, I bought another one. Great for the price. My concern was that it didn't seem sturdy enough, but when I was finished, it was okay... Problems included that one of the insert pieces didn't fit because of poor construction and some places where holes were indicated for screws, three of the four holes were there but not the fourth.

Complete garbage
This is poor quality garbage. The screw holes do not align to assemble it correctly. This causes the screws to prevent the doors from sliding properly. Read more

average quality iem
This item is ok. If I saw this in a store I would not pay more than $50 for it. It is overpriced, the wood is chipped, and the door slides open a bit. Read more

Good Enough
The cabinet was easy enough to assemble and it looks nice. My only complaint is that the DVDs in the middle of the cabinet are a little tricky to get to because of the design.

Not the best, but not bad either.
It's a nice cabinet, but the pre-drilled holes in the top component of the casing were a bit too far apart. Read more

Poor quality
This Cd case was shown to be well made and of good quality. It was not. It is scratched, and the laminate is coming off in places. Some assembly was over an hour of assembly. Read more

I had been shopping around for a media cabinet for a while now, this was about $100 cheaper than a similar dvd cabinet at overstock, I had owned the one from overstock before. Read more
