I bought this to be an organizer for all my craft supplies, so the drawers hold all my scrapbooking supplies, and the cabinet side holds my fabrics and sewing machine. It holds everything perfectly. I read reviews of people complaining that it was complicated to put together, and the instructions say that is take at least 2 people to assemble, but I put it together all by myself in under 3 hours. The drawers/shelves are super sturdy, and I was surprised to discover that the cabinet door has soft close hinges. Definitely a great purchase!!
