HITHOS 54" Buffet Cabinet with Storage, Modern Kitchen Buffet Sideboard with Drawer, Wood Coffee Bar Station with Adjustable Shelves, Kitchen Storage Cabinet for Living Room, White

We needed additional kitchen storage and this buffet cabinet definitely fits the bill. Looks very good. Fit and finish are excellent for the price. Don't recall anything about tools, but all you need is a Phillips screwdriver. Two (slight) cautions. First, the box weighs, like, 150-200 pounds -- we were lucky to get it up to our apartment and in the door. Second, the 3-4 hour assembly estimate may be right for DIY types, but for retired lawyers 6 hours is closer to the mark. That said, the parts were well-labeled, the instructions were very clear, and everything fit.

The packaging was good, and there were no missing parts or damage to the cabinet. If you need to return this for any reason though, forget it. Once it's out of the box, it would be very difficult to put back. We LOVE IT! *The instructions are in the bottom of the box, so you have to pull everything out to find them. My husband put this together by himself in about 5 to 6 hours. The hardest part was moving the box. It is heavy. You want a well lit area, and large floor space area (like 14' x 8') to be able to lay everything out and assemble. It is helpful if the assembly area is close to the chosen location. We used floor sliders to move the finished product easily. His comments: Well engineered, solid, and sturdy. The instructions are mostly pictures showing clear step by step with a few minor interpretations. All parts are well marked and the letter on the bag or cabinet piece corresponds to the letter in the instructions. In his opinion, if you are doing this by yourself a cordless drill is a must. However, he used a manual screw driver for some parts like tightening the locking mechanism. While assembly was time consuming it was well worth the effort. The end result is a beautiful solid cabinet with excellent features. Be sure when measuring you allow enough room for opening the side doors. If you allow for an additional 13 inches on each side, you can open the side doors all the way. Our guess - if you load the side doors with heavy items it may cause the magnets to not hold as well. Alternately your unit may not be on a level surface. Cool feature- the front doors are a "soft close". We are very happy with our purchase, and would definitely recommend this product.

It is a heavy piece and it took about 2 hours to put together but it was worth it. It looks great and it has soft close drawers and cabinets.

It's a great piece of furniture that's practical, attractive, and sturdy. It takes hours to assemble because there are a lot of parts, but it's kinda sorta fun to do. We bought four of them and so far I've assembled three. The instructions are not difficult to understand, and the steps are not difficult. Just be careful and you'll do fine. I did most of it by hand until I bought an electric screwdriver that made it much easier. In the end you'll have a beautiful piece of furniture. It's very heavy, but one person can move it into place if you slide one side at a time.

First, let me say this was not easy to put together!!!!! It honestly took me about 5 or 6 good hours to complete but I did it by myself!It is a solid and well built cabinet. So heavy that I sat it on a nice runner to protect my floors. There is a LOT of storage inside and the center drawer comes in very handy. I have all of my Coffee Bar parts, accessories and supplies stored inside of it and still had plenty of room left for often used pantry items.It has a nice waterproof finish that just wipes clean and really does looks like an expensive kitchen cabinet. I am honestly surprised how sturdy this is.I feel it was well worth the money and effort to assemble and think it will last a long time.

The media could not be loaded. I received the buffet without assembly instructions. Lucky for me I am rather talented at reverse engineering and was able to get it put together with only the spec diagram and looking at review videos. I have to say, all the screw holes match it is pretty sturdy. If you lay out all of the components it’s pretty easy to figure out how it all goes together.

While it took us 3 1/2 hours to build, it went together perfectly. The directions were clear, the parts were well labeled and the pieces fit nicely together. As with any piece of furniture like this, it is important to use care when assembling. We hand screwed and tighten fittings rather than using power tools. We are surprised at how much storage it creates. The swing out doors on the sides are great for tea, crackers, and cookies. The center drawer is quite large and has a support bar on the underside for added strength. We are very pleased with the style, the quality and the versatility of this piece.

It's a great unit with lots of storage but after 4-1/2 hours assembling it I CAN'T USE IT!!! The space it's in is 62" wide but I can't open the doors!!!!! You need a full 25" extra clearance to be able to open the doors all the way, or a minimum of 6" extra clearance on both sides!!! To open both doors all the way they each open to 12.5"!!! So when I try to open the doors, even part way, either the knob hits my freshly painted wall on one side, or the lower part of the door hits on the other!!!! How the heck am I supposed to disassemble it, repack it in this box and return it?!?!?!
