Beautiful and light display case!

Delivery was timely, item came in the right package, no damage due to shipping. Received display case came exactly as described, color matched the picture. Case is beautiful, does not look nor feel cheap. It is already housing part of the collection.Hanging the case on a wall required precision. Keyhole hangers on the back of the case are not exactly forgiving. Make sure you measure the distance right, this will save you time and frustration.I would buy again if I need another one.

Pros
  • Very nice good quality great price looks just fabulous highly recommend
Cons
  • May not fit in with modern or contemporary decor styles

Does not lock in my review

The display case is very nice and well finished. I like it. BUT, one of the features I wanted was "lockable". My unit came with 2 keys and the door has two clips with key holes, but the keys do not go in and I have never been able to figure out how to lock it. I filed one of the keys until it would go in, and I managed to lock it, but then I could not unlock it. I finally got it unlocked but vowed to not try to lock it again. If locking is important to you, this one could be a problem.

Pros
  • It looks great on my father's wall with all of this old trains.
Cons
  • Requires regular cleaning to prevent dust build-up

Great Product for the money

I was looking for a cabinet and this has proved to be great value for the money. I want to order another but it's no longer on revain Prime and I don't want to pay $28 to have it shipped. I hope they get some more on Prime soon.in fact I'll probably buy two. I think someone said they were no walls screws and I thought the same, until I found them at the bottom of the box after I had already hung it with my own!

Pros
  • Keeps your model trains organized and easy to access
Cons
  • May not be compatible with certain paint finishes on walls

I prefer the O scale size for my HO scale cars. I previously ordered the HO scale cabinet but found its depth really tight for the cars that I have. The O scale size works much better and allows for more room. The finish and quality were excellent, along with the packing material used to protect the cabinet during shipment. The only things that i would suggest would be to provide hangar hardware that would accept larger screws and I would make the cabinet a 2 to 3 inches wider / longer so that…

Pros
  • Home & Kitchen
Cons
  • Not recommended for households with small children or pets due to potential safety risks

Not hinged in my review

I wish that it had a hinge to hold the front glass door open. Hard to put trains away or take out holding the door open with one of your hands.

Pros
  • Stainless steel interior that is easy to clean and maintain
Cons
  • Susceptible to damage from harsh cleaning products

Well made and good value

I bought this case to display both British and American models. British OO (1/76th scale) and US/Continental HO (1/87th scale) are about the same size due to the smaller British loading gauge. The shelves have lips about 1/8" high. I wanted to display the trains on track but found that although the shelf is deep enough to accomodate the HO track the lip put the track too near the back. My solution was to turn the cabinet upside down as the undersides of the shelves are flat and the track can be

Pros
  • Stunning brass locks and hinges with keys
Cons
  • Requires frequent maintenance to keep the glass UV-resistant

Looks great and good build quality.

Great product that looks great on the wall. Only minor negative was the weather stripping on the glass shifted out of place during shipping. Easy fix.

Pros
  • High-quality tempered glass is shatter-resistant and durable
Cons
  • May be difficult to install on uneven or textured walls

Fabulous HO Gauge Train Display Case

These cabinets are far better than we expected. The workmanship is outstanding, easy to hang/install on the wall that included the necessary hardware for installation and they are very attractive on our den wall. We would absolutely purchase these cabinets again. They are beautiful.

Pros
  • Protects your model trains from harmful UV rays
Cons
  • May have a limited lifespan due to wear and tear over time

Hesitant to Mount on wall

Once I saw the provided hardware, I questioned the wisdom of mounting it on wall and trusting a few thousand $$ of trains to the drywall mounts.the mounts on the display are pre installed and are not the same distance as the studs on the walls.my solution was to remove bottom latches and put it on a side table top, and then use the wall mounts in addition to that.to keep it from falling forward.I also put some furniture "stick on” scuff pads under the base so that the door (which opens upwards)

Pros
  • Features a lockable door to ensure your collection remains secure
Cons
  • Can be difficult to move and transport

Great cabinet! best in my review

This is a very good quality cabinet! I received it in perfect condition and was very excited to hang it on the wall and display some very valuable trains in it. The display is awesome and I am very pleased with this cabinet! Don't worry about the negative comments about the locks! If you really want to lock this cabinet then get some serious locks. If you put it up in your basement or shop who cares about the locks? Works for me and I'm very happy with my purchase!

Pros
  • There are great display cases and the re-seller is awesome to work with!
Cons
  • May not be easily accessible for hands-on exploration of the collection

Train Cabinet in my review

This is a great cabinet but there are a few little pit falls. The locking mechanism is a little hard and could be better. Make sure when removing the packing from the glass you don't scratch the glass. Plus there was some gung that was hard to remove off of the glass. Seems easy to scratch. I wish I got a larger one. May end up buying another.

Pros
  • Stylish and sleek design that blends in with any décor
Cons
  • May not provide enough protection from theft or damage by visitors

Great display case but get good hardware for the install

Great display case. I was surprised that it was as nice as it is. You will want to purchase additional hardware to hang this to the wall as it is heavy and with the added weight of what’s going in the display it would be a great candidate for crashing to the floor after pulling out from the drywall. My only gripe is that the hooks on back are very small and do not accommodate oversized screws.

Pros
  • Home Décor Products
Cons
  • Can be difficult to clean due to tight spaces between the cabinet and the wall

very good quality and great value but with caveats

I found the other reviews to be very helpful. I strongly suggest reading all of the them. The caveats that others spoke of were spot-on. My two cases came quite quickly, within 3 days in spite of the automatic notification suggesting otherwise (7-10 days or so). Unlike one reviewer's experience, mine were reasonably clean; there was nothing a paper towel and Windex couldn't handle. One thing that's perhaps not obvious is that this is not a sliding glass door arrangement. The front glass…

Pros
  • Beautiful. Very well made; well protected in packaging.
Cons
  • May not prevent fading of model trains over time

Not deep enough best in my review

This case is not deep enough to put a track piece on each shelf and then put the HO scale trains on the track. The HO trains will only fit if they are placed directly on the track.I guess I'll have to build one myself - I thought the ad was a bit misleading.

Pros
  • A little over priced but good quality and shows the trains so...
Cons
  • May not offer enough space for a large collection

Beautiful! good for me

Great gift for that train collector in your life. Got it for my Father as a Christmas gift. He mounted it just below his track, so he can display the cars he is not using.

Pros
  • Cabinet is nicely designed and well built. It was also well packaged.
Cons
  • Limited size options for larger model trains

No Room for HO Gauge Locomotives!

This product turned out to be a terribly disappointment. It is supposed to display HO model trains, but the shelving is extremely cramped. Also the wall mounting is exceedingly difficult to get right.Depth of the shelves is barely 1¼ inches, so forget about laying an attractive cork roadbed under your track (a 2 inch requirement). Accepting this disappointment there still remains the difficult problem of "shoe-horning” my locomotives on a standard HO track (1.125 inches wide). Most of my…

Pros
  • 98% UV Protected hinged door frame
Cons
  • May not allow for effective organization and display of various train accessories

Display Case Cabinet HO

I always wonder what I going to receive without putting my hands on it. The cabinet was delivered in perfect condition. It is already up and the trains are available for viewing. I would recommend this cabinet to anyone who is looking for a reasonably priced display case. Why didn’t I give it 5 stars? I don’t like plastic so I replaced the window with glass. Also in all fairness, it is difficult to ship glass because of the possibility breakage. Great price for a great cabinet.

Pros
  • Handcrafted in solid furniture grade beech hardwood with elegant furniture finish.
Cons
  • May not match existing decor

Train Display Case: my feedback

The item was delivered on time and in excellent condition. The quality of the item is very good and meets all of my expectations.

Pros
  • This is was my 3rd display case purchased. You can't do better at any price.
Cons
  • Susceptible to damage from pests and rodents

Disappointed and eh

I've purchased smaller cases for N/Z scale and they're great. Seems as though the slats inside the case are weak. They can't support the normal light weight of the HO cars along the entire slat let alone locomotives.

Pros
  • I. en joy. it
Cons
  • Potential risk of damaging model trains during installation

Perfect HO scale display case

Delivered on time, packaged very well and easy to set up for use. The case is beautiful hanging on my train room wall. I was very pleased with the way it looked after adding all my trains to it. I like it so much that I want to buy another one.

Pros
  • Over-lip shelves to keep cars/tracks in place
Cons
  • Limited color options for the cabinet
