We were unimpressed with the quality of the Claremont Bathroom Wall Storage Cabinet. Overuse of “cams” complicates assembly. The fiberboard material splintered around the predrilled holes, and one corner of the wood finish missed a visible spot. The doors fit poorly as well. Look elsewhere.

The doors do not meet at the center. There was a half inch gap between the doors when installed as instructed. The holes should be drilled so that the doors meet without a gap upon closure.

Some cosmetic marring from the factory. Not solid wood, lots of particle board. All in all an okay product that fits the niche and about the quality you get nowadays.

This product came with instructions for assembly but not for hanging. No hardware for hanging was included. Had to use trial & error to get doors even as no explanation was given. The product would look nicer if the bottom shelf was wood like the doors and top.

Buy ONLY if you are a GOOD handyman. Be ready to deal with confusion and your own fixes to MAKE it WORK. My unit came with no "C" panel, but 2 "D" panels--so I adapted a "D" panel, by drilling holes & adding screws holding it in place. "D" is a bit narrower serving as the bottom panel, but that flaw is in the back where it would not show. Also my top panel was mislabeled as "C", but it's really "G" panel--"G" is the only panel with a fancy routed edge trim. I had already heard to be quite CAREFUL, to carefully STUDY the instructions, from comments by others who had found some problems with this product. But the end result is a very nice looking wall cabinet. And I'm rather pleased how it turned out.
PS here's a couple more precautions. Be sure to put the wood pegs and the metal lock screws into their proper predrilled holes. Use a large phillips No-3 screw driver to lock the cams. Their hex wrench supplied is much too small for tight locking. The adjustable hinges will require lots of jiggling and adjusting of screw angles, to make the doors line up properly, perhaps even adding some thin shims -- but its worth it to have nice final doors alignment. And to avoid a door gap which some folks fussed about. A "slow" power "screwdriver" will save lots of effort BUT a drill driver would be overly powerful, too fast -- could too easily strip the screws from holding.
Finally this unit ends up looking very nice, like a "5" rating. But considering all its assembly problems, I called it "3" for a handyman, and probably "1" for those without good hobbyist skills.

This was just what we were looking for in a cabinet to place over the toilet. A little more to put together than i thought it would be, but seems to be solid once it is finished. Have only had it up for a couple weeks, but for the price I think it will be OK.

This cabinet came with the wrong tools ("L" WRENCH) did not fit - the pre formed holes in the cabinet doors are off therefore the doors do not close together or hang properly. It is awful and now major adjustments are having to be made. If I had do over I would never had ordered this defective bath cabinet.
Definitely a huge disappointment that I am now "stuck" with trying to correct the problems. It's a shame I could not have purchased this item already assembled in the store but I could only order it on line and then have it put together. All the defects and the hours wasted on this cabinet and I still have major steps to get the doors to hang correctly. Awful!

The instructions were a little vague - for instance, were the dowels to be glued on both sides? Also, the door hinge screw locations on the door are not pre-drilled.

Product needs more instructions to put together. What is provided is entirely too vague.
Product is also quite heavy which was required securing to studs to stay on the wall. Other than that, it meets my needs very well.
