While there were a couple of board cracked when we took the pieces out of the box, they don’t impact the function of the cabinet at all. It took my husband a little less than 2 hours to put together, and it stores so much stuff!! Completely freed up a built in pantry (that is kind of gross) in our new house for larger cooking appliances and implements that wouldn’t fit in cabinets. Plus this pantry cabinet is so cute and fits great with the farmhouse style I’m going for. Definitely recommend.
