Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Pantry/Promo Storage Cabinet - Maple
Customer Review: Lots of storage at a good price. But check depth measurement
Summary: 4 Stars
The same manufacturer makes a similar cabinet that is much deeper (from front to back), so check the dimensions when purchasing.
It is a good cabinet for the price, especially great if on sale. The doors open and close easily. Most of the inside shelves are adjustable. It feels solid.
It seems to be particle board with a laminate coating in a maple-color imitation wood look. A white-color laminate version is also available, but may or may not be on sale at the same time.

The same company also makes shorter cabinets and shelf-organizers, in the same colors.

I think some of the cube-style organizers from Target are made by the same company. Cubicles 9 Cube Maple ,

The back of the cabinet is a thinner material, probably fiberboard. The back looks and is cheap. The handles on the front doors are plastic. I suppose we could get prettier handles from the hardware section, to replace the plastic ones.
You will want to place this against a wall for 2 reasons: (1) the ugly back, and (2) any cabinet this tall and shallow will have some tendency to wobble and tip if bumped. The cabinet that is deeper (from front to back) is probably less wobbly, but more expensive, and takes up more space.
I think the instructions recommended fastening this cabinet to the wall with L-brackets, for extra safety, but we did not do that. It seems stable enough against the wall. However, if I lived in a place with earthquake risks, or if I had rowdy little children, I would fasten ANY furniture this tall and heavy to the wall, preferably at a wall stud. I also recommend putting the heaviest items on the lowest shelves, and the lighter-weight items (paperbacks for example) on the highest shelves. That makes the cabinet less tipsy, and decreases the danger when things fly off high shelves during quaking.
Not pretty enough for the living room, but OK for kitchen.
Thus far, we have bought two of the white version from a local Target store, and will probably buy more in the future. Note that the box is very heavy.
