I'd been looking for a good-looking storage cabinet to hold my 600+ CD's that didn't take up an entire wall. I didn't have a lot of wall space to devote to it and all the cabinets I had seen before were either too small or way too large. As Goldilocks would say, this one is just right.Assembly was no problem for me. I put it together by myself in about an hour. All the joints fit right and there was no damage to the parts. Well, actually a couple of the corners on the backing panels were a little bent and wrinkled, [...] but they cannot be seen anyway so it's hardly worth complaining.Unlike my previous storage unit, which was just an open rack, the sliding doors and the design of this piece make it look more like furniture than a CD rack. I suppose it would do just as well with fewer shelves to hold DVD's but I'm not using it for that.I am please I found and purchased this item and would recommend it to anyone who has a lot of CD's and no where nice to put them.
