I needed a smaller cabinet to house my cd collection. I already have 2 larger ones for blu-rays/dvd's, but I still had cd's scattered around the house. I had a spot next to my office chair that had room for something 22 inches wide or less, and less than 10" deep. This was one of the few options that would work, and it fits perfectly. The cabinet looks nice. The top and bottom pieces are nice solid pieces, and the doors have glass inserts. I would have been fine with solid inserts, but either way is fine. Construction wise the only real short coming are the inserts on the sides of the cabinets. Those are very thin pieces of wood, but they are surrounded by sturdier pieces for the frame. At this price point, I can't really fault it. My other cabinets are thicker wood all the way around, but they were also twice the price and a bit bigger overall. This cabinet went together easily, looks good, and holds around 300 cd's if you want it to. The only con I have for it is a couple of extra shelves would have been nice for people storing cd's vs dvd's. You get 4 shelves, plus the bottom piece makes 5. At 40 cd's vertically across, that is 200. Then you have over 2 inches of space between the top of the cd's and the bottom of the next shelf, so you are able to store about another 20 cd's laying horizontally across. It doesn't look as good having horizontal cd's laying on vertical, but eh, it works. If you really wanted to you could store them all horizontally so they faced the same direction. Other than that, this is a pretty good cabinet for the relatively cheap price. It works great as a table piece in our home. The quality really stands out.
The rack looks good, and only took about 30 minutes to assemble from start to finish. Height-adjustablr feet are a nice touch. I don't like how each layer is made of two separate boards, but I get why they did that... For compact shipping.
I didn't bother with the earphone hook... Too much potential for hitting things. I turned this into a media stand for game consoles, and it looks really nice! You can actually take the top board off without impacting the durability, but the side rods will still stick up. I decided to leave the top board off so it could fit in a closet without impacting hanging clothes. I could only use the lower two layers, but I can live with that. It works great as a table piece in our home.
Honestly, it's better than expected. For the price the quality is really nice! It works great as a table piece in our home. Very happy with the purchase overall.
