Review on 📸 Sauder Shoal Creek Display Cabinet in Stunning Indigo Blue Finish: Perfect for showcasing your treasured possessions by Daniel Teller

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The body color is black-blue in the light of the lamp.

I am very happy with this beautiful locker. A few things to note for future buyers: 1. The body color is black-blue (almost like the color of a crow's feather) under normal lamp light. Under direct sunlight or with a flash, you can see blueness (note the difference in the image with and without the flash). But when lit by a lamp it mostly looks black, which isn't a problem for me because I really like that color. When making a purchasing decision, carefully consider the ambient lighting in your intended location, otherwise you may be disappointed with the color. 2. Keep your drill loaded and on standby while building this as there were some issues. On the right door hinge, the holes are not drilled coaxially; and on the left door hinge carrier the part was glued from the back to the front, so new holes had to be drilled on both. Luckily my carpenter friend (who loves putting everything together) was able to drill new holes for everything and take care of both problems. If you have a handy friend who can build this for you, ask them for help if like me you're short on tools. 3. Finally you can drill new holes for the inner shelf and install it elsewhere which my friend in the attached picture did to make the fake fireplace insert fit: I just wanted to warn everyone why my inner shelf doesn't look like the picture's manufacturer. Assembly issues aside, overall I am very, very happy with this beautiful finished cabinet. It turned out a lot better than expected.
