Coaster Home Furnishings Cyclamen 64-inch 5-Tier Clear Tempered Glass Curio Cabinet Display Case with Shelving Black 950171

This is a quality made cabinet that is priced $100-$200 less than the competition. I am not going to repeat the positive comments that exist, just expand on a couple of things. I found a video online that was on a channel with someone going step by step through the assembly. Very helpful, but I found the assembly instructions to be more than adequate. Parts are numbered and identified with pix in the instructions. What stood out to me most was the perfect alignment of the top, bottom, sides, and doors. Everything was square and the hardware was of good quality; fit was perfect and all threads were straight and not stripped. This cabinet exceeded my expectations. I added a set of USB dimming lights with a remote control that I got on Amazon as well. Perfect combination. The product is sturdy, sits flat to the floor, and just plain looks great. And the price was amazing given the quality.

This curio is the perfect size for my display items and it looks great when lit up with puck lights. See photos. I even put a couple of figures on top of it. Assembly was a little challenging… certain steps in the instructions weren’t explained very well — or at all — which led to me installing one of the side panels upside down. I had to disassemble it and do it again the correct way. Also, it was a little scary unpackaging and handling all of that glass during assembly. Just make sure you have a helper to hold the really heavy pieces in place while you’re tightening screws. I’m really happy with the look and feel of it and I especially like that it has five shelves, not four, to hold all of my stuff. It’s quite heavy and feels really solid with the glass shelves in place so there’s no chance of accidentally knocking it over. The doors open and close smoothly and it seems to be very well designed. To be honest, it looks like I spent a fortune on this curio when I didn’t. Even my wife really loves this thing and has complimented me on it several times. Very happy with this purchase and would buy it again without hesitation.

Instructions are all pictures no text to clarify anything. Easy to assemble, but quite a few parts of it are best guess for me. None of the parts are marked. I hate that! Double sided? Seems more like one side and side rubber I think the sticky part goes on the glass. That's the only part I was quite puzzled about. Looks pretty good though assembled and will let me unbox some long time boxed dragon figurines. Some notes... no pieces are marked 8( Step 1. Part G Bottom for me had the little tags that say don't remove, and the bolt holes have extra indentation that I took for screw holes for the bottom feet. Step 2 Not sure what the extra lines on the front side are meant to represent the plastic strips only go on the back though. Step 3 coax the glass into the plastic strips take your time. Try starting from the bottom to the top. Step 4. suction cups - what suction cups are just plastic cushions to keep the shelves from breaking the glass on the sides.. They are on the small strips look like tiny plastic cushion try to get them positioned so the glass shelf will bounce towards the center for best results. Step 6. Twin adhesive. I think its called this cause it sticks up over the glass on both sides. Then you slide the particular metal strip over this to protect the glass from vibrations opening and closing the door. Be cautious screwing in the screws over the metal strips for part 6. It will crack if you tighten too much and will take a couple to get the door positioned so it closes and opens freely Black stick on circles for top are just slightly smaller than they should be, meaning they won't stay long if you bump them or stick something over them in the future.

So, you want to buy a glass display cabinet eh? You set out on your internet quest, and after much googling, you land here, on this 33" glass display cabinet. Some assembly required, it says. Well, I bought 3 of these on a whim. They arrived on a blustery, rainy day, unceremoniously thumped down on my porch by UPS upside down and ignorant to the "fragile" logo emblazoned on the box. Yikes. I attempt to drag them inside. 50lbs either got heavier since I last lifted it, or the shape makes these boxes truly unruly. Either way, they weigh a lot. Much huffing and puffing found them in my hobby space finally. Open up the package, sort out the contents, and assemble the first one. This is where things start to go south. For starters, the instruction manual is poor, bordering on intentionally malicious. The bag of hardware is mercifully easy to comprehend, but the instructions themselves make very little sense, and the 4 screws for the feet of the cabinet I'm almost positive are the wrong length or the hole isn't predrilled far enough. My first cabinet involved assembling the base, slotting the rear glass pane in, attaching little plastic strips to the glass, taking off plastic strips because they're on backwards, reattaching plastic strips, and then trying with all my might to shove the side glass panels into the second channel slot while also seating it on the plastic strip, just like the instructions say. I would say I worked at this cabinet for a solid hour until I finally got it together. I looked in despair at the two other boxes left to open and assemble. I was going to be here all day. Then, I had an epiphany. The instructions were bad, but that doesn't mean I have to use them! The instruction manual was written by someone who either enjoys watching people in pain, or is otherwise a masochist. If the sir or madame that designed the instruction book happens to be reading this, then I'm sorry to inform you of this, but it's true. So... I redid the instruction manual. This doubly saves time, and the shame of being subjected to dissapointed head shakes of your significant other as they watch you fight with a cabinet for an hour. Steps below: Take out the two bases. Take out the two legs. Lean the to tall, thin glass panels somewhere. Lean the slighter wider, short glass panel somewhere. Lean the wide, tall glass panel somewhere. Assemble the base, the legs, and the two supports. Leave the lid off. Put the two plastic strips on the largest glass panel. Do not at this point, attempt to put that panel on the base. Resist! Instead, take one of the side panels, and fit it into the plastic channel now, forming an L shape. Take the third glass panel, and fit it into the plastic. You will now have a U shape that is held together by plastic strips. Lift this whole thing into the base and simply set it in the slot. There you go. I just saved you a lot of time, effort, swearing, sweating, and embarrassment. Fit the lid on. Put the shelves in. Put the magnets and hinge points in. To attach the door, do not attempt to do the entire thing while hanging on to a glass panel. Lay the thing on your lap (the glass panel for the door) and put the two little adhesive metal plates on the top and bottom corners. Then, attached the lower hinge to the glass while it's still on your lap. Doesn't matter where really, just best guess. Then, take the two screws for the top hinge and start them in the hinge slightly. Lean the door into the lower hinge point, tilt up and then simply tighten upper hinge to secure door with absolutely zero frustration. If the door is crooked, slightly loosen a single hinge, slide door in or out, tighten, repeat on second hinge until door is level. Put metal contact points on door, and boom, done in 10 minutes. Do not listen to the actual manual. It tells you terrible terrible lies that will make you curse the day you bought these things. Do it the easy way, and thank me later. Good cabinets, would buy again, terrible instructions, but common sense assembly saves the day.
