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

I'm really happy with how this turned out! This cabinet is definitely the center piece of the room's decor, now. If you plan to move or relocate this during/after assembly, you can significantly reduce the weight by having the inner glass shelves and door separated from the rest of the cabinet while it's moved. I was able to get it on top of a sturdy table by myself by doing this, adding those parts afterwards. As others have mentioned, the directions could be better. None of the parts are labeled with number stickers, and the order of one of the directions they suggest is logistically flawed (when they say to connect the side/back panels with the plastic liners, do this BEFORE you put the glass into the base; if you try to put them on after the glass is in the base, it will strain both the glass and the base due to the tight fit, which could lead to sad days). There aren't that many parts to work with, though, so it's easy enough to figure out. If you plan to try assembling this with only one person, make sure you've got some surfaces to lean things against while adding the braces. Take note that the wooden shelving braces are not symmetrical, either the top or bottom shelf will end up with more space, so make sure you have both of them flipped in the same direction. Some minor annoyances I have is there wasn't much material protecting the glass during shipping, and it arrived with some VERY light surface scuffs (only really visible if looking for them while in direct light). There were no cracks or chips, though, and the glass is clearly quite heavy and sturdy in construction. Also, it would have been nice if there were some places to run wires through for adding lighting.

This item came packaged very well and all parts were included, and also packaged nicely. As with most cabinets on the market today you do have to assemble it. I have done enough of this in my life to have learned from past mistakes. this item took me about 45 mins to 1 hour to assemble, mostly because it is heavy and I was alone with no one to help with lifting/holding the pieces for me. It actually is very nice and sturdy, and holds items which are near and dear to me. I did tether it to a wall to avoid the possibility of one of my cats jumping up and knocking it over!

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.

I was so happy to see this get delivered with none of the glass chipping or breaking. I know UPS/USPS/Fedex have sketchy delivery, so it's not usually the seller's fault, but I just didn't want the hassle. Thankfully, this curio case came in perfect condition. The wood frame on the sides, top, and bottom are preassembled and pre cut. They feel pretty sturdy for particle board. The process of sliding the side glass panels into the main back panel was a huge pain but with one other person helping me stablize everything, it worked out. The door particularly needed at least one other hand to make things easier. Everything fits well and the only gaps come from the door, which can easily be blocked with dustproof black foam stripes that can adhere around the borders. My favorite thing about it is the size. Each shelf actually fits quite an assortment of figures or other collectibles. The top wood panel is very dark however and casts a serious shadow on all my top shelf figures so eventually, i'll have to install some simple lights for when I want to show off. If there's any negative, i think it would have to be the top wood panel. If it were also clear glass, the case would be brighter and far more appealing. I might consider modifying it myself in the future. With free shipping, this is the only case I've found that is sleek and modern, not old and antique looking. It's not terribly expensive but is build sturdy, it's about table height and acts great as extra counter space and the little gray plastic feet work well to avoid destroying my floor boards. There really aren't many other alternatives, so thankfully, this ended up a great product. **note about the pictures** I am saving the middle shelf for some Gundam figures I plan on buying but leaving it empty would've been a shame, so I used it as a prison... A prison for BMO from Adventure Time... He can see everyone else having fun and living life while trapped in a cold (but well built) box of doom... His little felt hands and feet too weak to push the magnetically closed door open.... D

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.

Great Curio for the price! I looked at every curio available on amazon for a few weeks and this offered the best choice for what I wanted, an all glass curio cabinet on a small price scale. Of course I knew the quality would not be as great as many other curio's, but if you don't want to spend a lot the reality is there isn't many options for you and if you want one all glass the 3 offered from Coaster is the only options you'll find, at least on Amazon. The other few that are listed from other brands like Ikea are not as nice as this and cost more and not offered with Prime. So if you first intention is budget related this curio from Coaster is your #1 option, and it's also Amazon's choice. Quality: again, your on the very low end of the spectrum for curio cabinets here. With that said, the quality isn't as bad you may first think. It is however particle board not real solid wood the wood top, base and side frames are made of, that's expected for the price tag with this unit. However the construction is solid once all is together. Don't over tighten the allen bolts though, tighten them and give them one more rotation for a solid snug. The Galss: is heavy tempered glass panels and all the glass is clear, not dark tinted or anything, a plus for displaying your treasures! The Packaging: 100% on the packaging of this item, it's basically packaged within a box, within a box, within a box, within a box, lol, so yes, all the parts are packaged well like 4x. None of the glass was broken, chipped, scratched etc... The Assembly: Here you will need two people when you get to the glass, the instructions are not the best, but if you good with building assemblies you can easily figure this out without the instructions being the best. I did as they said and started with the back panel of glass. (be aware the instructions say a letter for each panel, but nothing is marked. there are 3 panel sizes, look at them carefully, the widest is you back panel, the next two are the same size, they are your sides, the last is the door). If you go by the instructions and start with the back panel with the unit upright, you'll need other person to hold the panel while you attach the side panels. The strips they give you you can't "slide" the glass in, you need to instead take those stripe place them on the side panels instead of the back panel first set the back panel in place with another holding it, then fit the side to the back inserting it in the strip and repeat for the other side. Once all 3 sides are together, put the top wood on, the wood is grooved for the panels to sit in, one 3 panels are up in place and the top base is attached it's solid. The you attach the attachments for the door and then the door. I added wired puck lights to the cabinet (see photo) simply drilled hole on the bottom base, I won't go buy and change batteries every few days for a battery puck light, that's just absurd. This curio is good for my cheaper not so greatly expensive gaming collector set figures and other smaller collectibles. The shelf remove if need more height but then your taking away a shelf too, catch 22 if need to decide i guess. I have much more valuable/rare/expensive figures from Sideshow, ThreeA etc... that stand 17" - 25" tall and could never use this curio for them without taking out shelf to fit them. On another side the unit isn't completely sealed so dust will get in through the door spaces. BUT the curio is nice for display you treasures, glass is perfectly clear and with lights if you add them easily show your stuff in a more classy manner. I recommend this curio, even though it's not top of the line, it is nice, sturdy, and very affordable.

easy to assemble - 1.25 hrs at comfortable pace. solid. Instructions are a little vague - used magnifying glass for clarity. ancient Roman pottery displays well as the glass sides and shelves are large within a 3/4" wide frame. Black color and design match tall IKEA shelves purchased years ago, but this one is s much better price.

Extremely difficult instructions. I wanted to stop assembling so many times but didn’t want to pack it up and carry it to post office for return. It’s very heavy . I damaged it a little when putting it together. I can’t believe how many reviews say it was easy to assemble. Took me over 3 hours minimum. The materials are cheap but it does look decent enough for my paperweights. I need to get stick on lights for it.
