This cabinet is well made and seems sturdy.  I haven't filled it yet.  There was an issue with one piece that didn't fit quite well so I had to make adjustments.  It took me a whole day to put it together.  I am not using mine as a pantry but I am using it as somewhat of a china cabinet for my dishes.  Looks great though.  Doors were easy enough to adjust and have minimal differences.  I got this item when it was basically half off and that was a very good deal.
