Pros: easy to assemble
Cons: fell off the wall too many times, instructions were flakey regardin the wall assembl, no framework to stiffen the assembly., chioboard breaks too easily
"It was extremely easy to assemble, but there again the wall using is only 4 pieces of chipboard with a hardboard backing.
When it came to hanging it on the wall, that's where the problems started. The instructions were not very clear, and the unit relied on hooks to feed over wall mounted plates. Each time I offered it up, the unit seemed to hang on the plates properly, only to crash down into the new worksurface I had just installed. In the end the unit broke, on the second time it departed the wall. So from my viewpoint, the instructions and wall mounting idea was a bit of a dead loss.
Sadly not worth the £77 I paid for something that wouldn't hang on the wall. How did all these other reviewers manage it?"

Pros: good quality soft close fittings, easy to follow instructions, good looking unit
Cons: none
"I was impressed with the quality of this unit.
To be honest, I thought I was buying a carcass without doors and was reasonably pleased with the price for just that.
When it arrived, it had good looking doors which saved me buying any.
Although it comes as flatpack, the assembly was simple, with good English instructions. I personally like to glue flatpacks together with PVA.
It also comes complete with soft close fittings. These are good quality and better than the ones fitted to my existing kitchen
This unit doesn't look amiss on my dining room wall for our dining crockery."

"Excellent quality and value for money. These have a hardwearing plastic type finish on the doors - not like the rubbish other stores sell which look like something you have painted yourself (with a stick)"
