Easy to assemble and install
Color: White, Style: Wall Cabinet, Color: White, Style: Wall Cabinet
This cabinet meets our need for more bathrooms storage without interfering with the space in our smallish bathroom. The package arrived well packed in cardboard with foam inserts to protect the parts from damage in transit. I was able to easily follow the included directions with minimal fuss. In several cases, extra hardware piece were included, which I really appreciated. The quality of the construction was excellent. The only this that concerned me was the weight bearing capability of the included shelves. I added a few liquid or lotion filled bottles and noticed the shelves sagging, so I may have to cut my own shelves to better support. The cabinet looks great and is exactly as pictured in the listing after I assembled it. The ability to customize the shelves is also helpful. I looked at several cabinets for this purpose, some more expensive, some less, and I am happy with the money spent for this cabinet.

Great bathroom cabinet!
Color: White, Style: Wall Cabinet
My husband mounted this cabinet over our toilet and it’s the perfect addition! It looks great, matches the cabinets we already have and adds much needed storage! I plan on buying a second to put in my daughter’s/ the guest bathroom. The doors are magnetic and close securely, and the shelves are adjustable and feel sturdy. It was very easy to put together and feels very secure mounted on the wall

Mounting process could have been easier but still a beautiful cabinet
Color: White, Style: Wall Cabinet, Color: White, Style: Wall Cabinet
Beautiful cabinet seems to be good quality I just keep admiring something so beautiful about the white. The extra hardware is thoughtful.
With some master skills I was able to get it mounted perfect. It was not a breeze but nonetheless I always find a way.
I found the best way to mount this was to hold it against the wall and follow the pre-drilled holes at the bottom to drill the holes into the wall that wasnt that hard
But for the top anchor/screws, the cabinet did not have pre-drilled holes and I was not about to guess !! So I used alien tape to tape the top wood bar to the unit as shown in pic then took the cabinet lined up the bottom holes while holding the cabinet up then I drilled holes through the unit with a small bit just to get the whole going then took it back down then followed the same holes with a bigger bit and it worked for me. It hung level.
It was crazy that the pre-holes were not 16” apart when they could have been. I added extra screws to be able to mount them to a stud I didn’t feel comfortable with it not being mounted to a stud. The screws I had were too long gonna have to get some shorter screws. But it’s up & looks so nice
DO NOT USE 11/32 bit. Don’t even use 5/16. I use 1/4 and kinda ran the drill in a circle to widen the whole and it was the perfect tight fit
All in all I do love the cabinet. Just feel the mounting process could have been instructed more conveniently

Love it !!!!
Color: White, Style: Wall Cabinet, Color: White, Style: Wall Cabinet
I absolutely love this cabinet. It’s super well-made easy to put together and the space is great. I’ve already received some compliments. Thought it would guests. Come to my home. Just look at how nice it pairs with my bathroom. The handles are sturdy. There’s also a nice tag inside with the company’s name. If you’re looking for a bathroom cabinet, highly recommended this one is well worth it. Love it!!!
