Yes! This cabinet may be used on the countertop, but you MUST turn it upside down. Otherwise it will topple due to the weight of the mirror. It arrived perfectly packaged with easy to understand instructions and pieces that were all marked and just waiting to be to be assembled! Even a 57 y.o. (35 y.o. in her own mind) woman could do it! Hey! That’s me! Well, if you gotta problem, it must be the operator. Just sayin’. The entire unit has the same finish so the bottom becoming the top is not an issue and it becomes an extra shelf! It also reverses the door which is what I wanted. This takes up very little real estate on my countertop and I didn’t want another cabinet hanging on the wall.
