This is a solid, sturdy piece of utility furniture that looks better than you might think. Stand back 10 feet and it looks good. Come closer and the "picture of wood" surface and the joinery give it away, but that said, it's exactly what my wife wanted in a sewing cabinet -- generous in size, easy to maneuver and decent looking for the price. The completed unit is heavy but rolls easily on its six casters without feeling shaky or wobbly.
Assembly was straightforward, taking about 1-1/2 hours, and amply eased by the clear, exact instructions and the line art drawings showing what-goes-where-and-how. The unit is made in the USA and it showed in the instructions, which excelled. Not the usual pigeon-English I've come across before in furniture like this, rather they're written in plain English and obviously were written by an English-speaking person. Refreshing!
At only two spots did I need another hand and that was when attaching the two doors to the cabinet, which lined up with each other without needing further adjustment. Otherwise, it's a one-person job. All the hardware was included and the all the screw holes and hardware fixing points lined up perfectly. Sauder's quality control is spot on.
All-in-all, a useful and pleasant looking piece of utility furniture. Oh, and it arrived a week early with no damage. What more can you ask for?

I'm fairly new to sewing and live in an apartment so needless to say, there isn't a lot of room for my sewing machine and sewing/craft things in general. This seemed perfect for all my storage needs although I wasn't in love with the color. Well it shipped quickly and was packaged excellently.. AND the color in the official photos seem off, or maybe I just got lucky.. but mine is a bit richer/darker in color and looks great.
It was fairly easy to assemble for my husband and I (mostly him doing the work). It looks great and is so easy to move around, even with everything inside of it. The pockets on the doors also have removable separators to suit whatever you may want to put in them. I love that once it's all closed up, it looks decorative. It's a lot more sturdy than I thought it would be as well. Maybe I'll upgrade one day, but for now.. and for awhile, this will be perfect for me.
