I ordered this particular armoire because it matched my South Shore desk w/hutch. It was very easy to assemble, and fits the cherry wood decor of my home office. It's sturdy, and made of quality wood, and even has a lock. I use it to hold my t-shirts, mousepads, baby onesies, baby bibs, etc. for my printing business, and I lock it to keep my son from getting into it. [...] Easy to repair. Even with the scratches, I love this armoire because of it's beautiful construction and molding.

This locking cabinet is easy enough to put together and it's about what one might expect for the price. Everything fit together well and all the necessary hardware came with the unit. [...]About the lock: don't expect much. Mine didn't even lock at first, so I adjusted the doors (by hammering on the hinges) which brought the lock bar up just enough to catch the little routed out socket in the bottom of the middle shelf. Once I got it to catch, all it would take was a little gentle downward pressure (one finger would do) to unlock the door. Unacceptable. Eventually I fabricated a metal bar to prevent the lock from disengaging. When I called SouthShore in Canada about this, they advised that I don't store anything in the cabinet of value. (interesting - it's a locking cabinet.)As I mentioned I called SouthShore in Canada. They provide an 800 number on a bright orange tag on the back of the unit. The person that answered was extremely helpful and very nice to deal with. I explained the problems and they agreed to ship out the replacement parts right away, no questions asked. Now that's service! As I said above, I asked about the lock problem and they didn't have a solution for it, so be prepared to beef up the lock if you intend to use this cabinet for storing or securing any valuable items.[...] I have to say my impression with SouthShore was excellent. I wouldn't worry about buying anything from that manufacturer again, as they seem to really care about their end-users. For that, I give them an extra star.

Preferably 2 to work together; but I did it by myself. It has a solid look, but is not sturdy enough e.g. to move on a carpet without lifting, because it will tear the manufactured wood. Purchased for storage in the back of office waiting room. Others will not see it, which is all the well given how it arrived, with the box torn, and the veneered pieces either scratched or scarred from the too tight plastic wrapping tape. Packing was styrofoam that had hundreds of bits and pieces which had to be wiped off of each and every piece, as well as vacuumed from the rug after unpacking. Since it will not be seen by others, and it serves its purpose for clerical supply storage, I chose not to return it. Otherwise, there were too many unsightly damages.
However, it is a good functional piece which looks like real furniture, however, it is mostly pressboard with veneer, and cannot stand up to heavy use. Other than the marred finish, I am satisfied with this product for the price.
