Poor quality
Did not realize I would have to assemble myself. Assembly wasn't all that difficult, however when I tried to move it it basically fell apart. Had to reassemble it twice until I got fed up and screwed it together with self tapping screws. I bought two of these and regret it.

    Worst Purchase Ever
    The entire cabinet is held together by interlocking pieces, so gravity holds it together. Workers and my school put it together, tried to move it across a hallway, and it fell apart. The metal plate for the back of the cabinet can be bent completely over using 2 fingers. This is a cheap version of what a cabinet should be. Very disappointed.

    Spend more for better cabinet
    Very poorly built. Tried to move it after assembly and it basically came apart. Now spending additional time drilling and riveting it to keep it together. Would recommend spending more or buying one that is welded.

        worst thing I have ever brought online.
        I pick this up at the store and the box was in bad shape,they say this is a heavy duty cabinet and that's true if it stays in the box. Ever part I took out was damaged not so bad that I could have fixed ,but the last piece in the box I didn't even bother to unpack, it was trash beyond the time I wanted to repair it and it looked like it got ran over bye a forklift . I took it back and brought the Huskey 32 inch cabinet I just was so happy the time that was taken to pack this cabinet only one dent and it wasn't in a place that would cause the cabinet to function right.Each piece had thick foam boards to keep down the damage and the metal was better constructed .The other cabinet was layers of plastic wrap. The new cabinet is used to replace and old wooden cabinet that was damaged during all the rain . I put this cabinet up on 4 inch blocks just in case .

        All the cabinets are damaged in transportation from Sandusky to Home Depot.
        I have ordered 3 cabinets and all the cabinets are damaged in transportation from Sandusky to Home Depot. In picture this product looks good but, in reality it is almost like a paper product. ( OVER ALL IT IS NOT DURABLE AND MONEYWISE IT IS NOT WORTH IT )

        Cheaply Manufactured
        It took a lot of hammering to get this product put together. It is cheaply made of lightweight steel. Most of the material was bent or damaged. It is a good thing that my brother and I went to trade school for HVAC and have extensive experience putting duct work together. This experience certainly came in handy for putting this steel cabinet together since we had to practically hammer each piece straight to be able to assemble the unit.

        Disappointing, flimsy, cheap
        I had my doubts about the sturdiness of this product upon opening the box. Felt just barely thicker than an aluminum turkey pan. I decided to proceed with putting it together, hey, I did it for Science! After putting it all together, I decided to push it into place against the wall that I had chosen. Woah!!! This darn thing nearly folded in on itself!! Twisted and bent. Back in the box it went. I am grateful for Home Depot's return policy and caring folks in customer service. If I could have, I would have given this product zero stars.

        Not what it seems
        The product description says that it is steel but the back of it is not steel. The cabinet is very flimsy.

        a piece of junk
        The material is too flimsy & weak to store any significant weight. If you buy one, have your drill handy and a pocket full of pop rivets or nuts & bolts to make it usable to store even the lightest items.

          The product has no feature that you can talk about.
          It is too flimsy and required three able bodies men to assemble it and still it did not come out perfect. I am waiting for the other two person to come to rectify it

          Great cabinet for the price
          Great cabinet, very quick & easy to assemble. Was a little un-sturdy, but screwed the back of it into the studs in the wall behind it. Now it is perfect.

          Terrible Value
          This product is not a good value and is a very cheap cabinet. We ordered two of the cabinets, they were both damaged upon arrival. The metal is paper thin, and is a joke. The cabinet is wobbly and not sturdy even with perfect assembly. The lock seemed like a nice touch but the whole cabinet is so rickety it will provide absolutely no protection. This cabinet should be half the price, it is not what you are looking for. We purchased two other storage cabinets from Home Depot that were white and made of fiber board for much less and they were a better product. Sorry Sandusky, you need to go back to the drawing board.

            The product material is very thin.
            I was not happy with the thin metal. The doors do not line up.

            Thin metal, poor quality
            This cabinet is by far substandard to other Sandusky cabinets I bought. Metal is half the thickness. It bends in your hand as you attempt to assemble it. One panel was dented beyond belief.

            This product met my storage needs
            the unit was easy to assemble and adjust. My only concern is that there does not seem to be a way to secure the unit to the wall and it tips forward like many other shelving units.

            OK Cabinet unit. Received damaged.
            The unit itself is alright. However the door locking pins at the top and bottom of the door don't usually both line up without conscious effort, so the door usually sticks out a little. It's a lot easier with two people to assemble the unit.

            Hard to put together !
            I wasn't aware you had to assemble it. I am a disabled person with nobody to put it together for me. Been sitting in front of my front door since I got over a week ago.

            Not bad for the cost
            I'll call my self an expert on this one. I've put many of these cabinets together from different suppliers (Granger, McMasterCarr) all much more expensive. This cabinet assembles easy, is pretty sturdy , looks good. Wish it was handled better, dented corners. If your shipping box is damaged at pick up, so is your cabinet. And if you want this to be a stronger structure get a bolt package from one of the suppliers listed above

            very disappointed in the cabinet. bent all over and not as good as the ones I bought last year. not worth the money this time
            not happy at all with the product this time. paid a lot for it and was not the same as the last 12 I bought. Quality was not as good either and the cabinet was all bent when I got it.
