Shaker 2-Door Wardrobe

Some off gassing

This item is great. It is the second one I have bought and assembled. I would give it 5 stars except there is a distinct odor that is taking a while to subside. I had to leave the bedroom door and windows open. Luckily it is summer. I recommend letting it air out in your garage for a few weeks out of the boxto s month before bringing inside for assembly. I left the first on in garage in the box for a few months and had no problem. But the second one still has a string smell of the varnish or stain used on the wood.

Quality is Okay, but its not solid wood

I still have not had chance to assemble the wardrobe arrived couple of weeks ago. both packages received with end of the package torn a little bit. its just too heavy for one guy make the delivery. There were no damages though. But supplier needs to consider that there is no 2 guys come to deliver. I opened the packages but the smell of glue are strong. I noticed this time is made in Brazil, assume the formaldehyde glue grade met the import regulations. but I had to take the 2 sheets of plywood (which are for the back of the wardrobe) out cos smell was strong. Additionally, I saw some of the review said this item is solid wood. Indeed, The majority of material are veneered edge panel (made of pine). the veneer is very thin layer, and with only one layer thin lacquer coat. The style of wardrobe is beautiful.
