Elite 32" Base Cabinet

I bought this for my laundry area. This cabinet is very spacious and sturdy. I put it together myself and it was very easy. Directions: The directions have the pieces labeled, but the parts are not. You have to look at the picture and match the piece up. You also have to ensure you have the pieces in the right positions, so I used the hinge placement as a guide. Assembly: This was very easy to put together and the screws went in much easier that the other cabinet I bought with this. You need to really put muscles into screwing them in, and if you use a drill, do it very slowly and not all the way. These screws tend to strip easy. Doors: This is my pet peeve with this brand. The doors are hard to place to close properly. It stated I could drill new holes to get it placed correctly. For the money I spent, I do not want to have to play around and drill new holes to get the doors placed correctly. There is about a 1/2 inch gap between the doors, which I am leaving as I don't want to spent so much time to get it corrected. To me, the doors should be more aligned so you can place them more easily. Overall I do love this cabinet. It is very sturdy and spacious. It holds so much stuff. I put this together myself and it did take about and hour or so. I wish it had a back, but that was not a deal breaker for me.

Great cabinet! Works perfectly in my laundry room. Looks great, easy to assemble. It was less expensive than buying cabinet and top separately. And was the width I needed for my space. Our kitty loves his new feeding area as well….bonus!

Update: Prepac sent the parts for the replacement drawer handle, free of charge, just with slow shipping. Getting the parts was a breeze with their online form. New handle screws in properly. This is for the 16" base cabinet. First, the good: It's heavy, sturdy, and roomy. It's fairly solid feeling versus other similar particleboard products. Here are the issues I experienced with this product: * The one screw for the drawer handle wasn''t able to be completely tightened. When I tried to loosen it, part of the handle unscrewed with it. I can't get the screw to fully drive so the drawer handle is wobbly. These combination philips/flat head screws are easily stripped, so be careful. (I contacted the company for a replacement handle/screws and will edit my review with any updates) (See edit above) * You have to drill through the front cabinet door when you decide on which side you want to install the handle. That itself isn't a big deal, and in a way it's nice in theory because you don't have unsightly holes. However, with the regular 3/32" drill bit, you have to drill from the rear to the front, but due to painted/coated particleboard, the hole chips away on the outside so it looks messy where it meets the handle. For the price, I think they should include a cheap particleboard drill bit for this purpose. * The screws for the metal drawer mounts don't fit into the holes on the metal mount. Round screw, oval hole that's slightly too narrow. * The instructions: My complaint is minor with this, but like a lot of these types of products some lateral thinking is required for the instructions. Usually each piece has a sticker or mark for labeling, but in this pieces aren't labeled so you have to use a process of elimination to figure out which piece is required for each step. In one step, the instructions show square shelve pieces, but they're rectangular ones in person. Certain holes or widths between holes shown in the instructions don't line up with what you have in your hand. For example, the instructions show three evenly spaced holes for the drawer rails. But the rail has three holes that are varying widths. To conclude: Generally good, but a tiny bit of chipping on the door. If I didn't have these issues I'd give this a rating of 4.5 stars. This is kept in a back room so the unsightly things aren't a big deal, but for $125 I expect those details to be ironed out.

Great quality, very happy with the product. I'd give it 4.5 stars if I could for 2 reasons below, but I'm giving it 5 because the quality exceeded my expectations. I needed a place for the litter box and I wanted a countertop. Cons: - no back - holes for shelves don't go up high enough - mine arrived without instructions and we couldn't find them online, but we figured it out by finding instructions for an upper cabinet - couldn't have put it together by myself easily since the pieces are really heavy so I had assistance Pros: - excellent quality, maybe better than my kitchen cabinets - great price for what you get - large width compared to other similar products - good neutral colors - easy to assemble, especially considering I didn't have instructions!! - sturdy enough that cutting a hole in the side didn't compromise the structural integrity at all Used this to make a litter box cabinet. I got this for less money than a comparable cabinet at a hardware store which wasn't wide enough. The 32" provides enough room for a litter box and a litter mat. Barely any litter makes it out of this. Roomy enough for my 17 pound cat to get in and move around. He's a tall and long cat! I stapled cardboard from the packaging to the back to keep the litter in the cabinet. I also wish it had higher shelf holes and may drill my own so I can put the shelf up high for storing cat supplies. It's MDF and melamine so my mom cut it for me in a wood shop. I don't think I could have done that at home with just my jigsaw, plus she knows what she's doing and I don't! Anyway, really happy with this cabinet. I want to get the matching upper cabinet next!!

It looks great, finish is relatively durable.

I was skeptical ordering this cabinet to fill the area left by our dryer when we stacked our washer/dryer. The price point led me to believe that I was likely taking the chance on getting a cheaply made piece with low quality control. Thankfully, I couldn't have been more wrong. Bullet points: - Piece arrived 4 days earlier than initially stated. Fantastic, I was able to put it together on the weekend. - Piece is exceptionally heavy. I'm strong and I still used my dolly to get it into the house, and a blanket to drag the box around. - Opening the box and noticed that it was packaged in a way that even though the outside of the box looked rough, everything inside was untouched. Spray in packing foam as well as multi-layered heavy cardboard. - I took each piece out and was thoroughly impressed by the fact that there was not a single scuff, scratch, ding, missing corner, chipped edge banding, etc. Every piece was impeccable. - Heavy 5/8" thick construction. The edge banding is helpful when trying to figure out which side is which. I would have liked the pieces to be labeled with little stickers. - It went together solidly. Large confirmat screws hold the box together, quality 6 way adjustable hinges, twist locking cam-screws hold the counter on top. - Measurements were exact. The ad stated 32" wide and it was precisely that. I would buy from this manufacturer again in a heart beat. I was planning on building a cabinet and there's no way that I could have bought the materials and built this cabinet for less than I paid for it here.

Easy to put together, worked well, and fit where I needed it.

I have had to downsize to a condo, without enough storage or counter space. Looks like it has always belonged in my new space.

Purchased the 32" base storage cabinet. It is well packaged by the manufacturer to minimize damage during transport. The package is a little over 100 pounds, so damage, if it occurs, depends on the carrier. In my case, it didn't suffer any damage. Assembly is easy if you read and follow instructions and if you work in a neatly manner. As some other reviewers mentioned, parts are not identify so you have to figure them out but it's quite easy. Considering the price, quality is fine. In my opinion, the only thing missing to this kit is a backing piece. It's not an essential part but I will add one. To complete assembly, you need a drill to install door handles. The manufacturer partly predrilled 4 holes on each door giving the option to install handles on the top or bottom of the doors. Depending on your setting, you have to drill your choice of holes through both doors. I don't know if this can be achieve without a drill. In summary, nice cabinet, relatively easy to assemble and lot's of storage space.
