Review on White Glancy Freestanding Floor Cabinet with 2 Shutter Doors: Ideal Home Storage for Bathroom, Kitchen, and Living Room with 2 Adjustable Inner Shelves by Chris Nastanovich

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nearly Perfect Except

This product and matching closet is near perfect and I would give it a five except for a large boo boo that was factory made. As with all do-it-yourself furniture, it uses a cam lock nut and button head dowel to firmly connect the joints. But Boo-Boo comes in both floor and wall cabinets. Either the dowel pin is 1.5mm shorter or the cam nut hole is factory positioned 1.5mm further from the plate edge. As a result, the cam nut does not engage the dowel pin head. I broke a cam nut trying to hook the pin. The dowel pin just isn't long enough to hook the cam nut into it. After breaking the first cam nut I found the solution. I tightened the dowel pin and put it in the hole. Then I loosened the dowel two full turns of the screwdriver and then tightened it 1/8 turn. This will allow the dowel pin to go 1.5mm further into the hole in the cam nut. The cam nut then snaps onto the pin and fits snugly into the joint. Too bad they screwed up the situation with the cam nut. Otherwise the packaging was really good, the assembly was easy and the quality is good. Both look great and the size is great. I hope one of the manufacturers reads this.
