Comments about LifeStyles Microwave Cabinet:

Mainly purchased to relocate microwave from countertop. Very nice design and fits nicely with our decor. Easy to assemble, sturdy fully assembled.
Only concern is right side door scrapes top shelf when closing; may not be squared or due to weight of our microwave. Either way, this is minor compared to the benefit and aesthetics of it.

We would buy again.

Comments about LifeStyles Microwave Cabinet:

This microwave stand has lots of room for storage and is the perfect height. I love how it matches the other pieces in this collection; it makes my kitchen look well-decorated. The wooden top of the stand is large enough to hold my toaster oven, so you can utilize that space for more than just a row of decorations.

Comments about LifeStyles Microwave Cabinet:

This microwave cart was perfect for my tiny kitchen. It freed up needed counterspace by housing my microwave and toaster oven (that went on the top ) and fit into a small space. I put the whole thing together by myself in an hour and a half from opening the box to breaking down packaging for disposal. Some of the drill holes on the back were not lined up correctly to attach the back board but I made new holes for the screws with a nail and a hammer. I am thrilled when I see all the counter space in my kitchen now and delighted with the extra storage provided which I desperately needed! All in all a good budget purchase. I have the pantry that matches and am equally pleased with that. The clutter in my kitchen is gone!

Was rather flimsy, but after putting on the back nice and tight. The doors hang a little crooked, the top was chipped in the front, (the top piece)the door catch was smashed. Other than that it is a very cute piece and if perfect would really love it!

Comments about LifeStyles Microwave Cabinet:

I PURCHASED THE CABINET TO FREE UP MY COUNTER SPACE AND ADD EXTRA STORAGE SPACE. WHICH THIS PIECE GATS AN A+.
HOWEVER,I WAS SURPRISED AT HOW THIN/FLIMSY THE PIECES ARE BASED ON THE PRICE. ALSO, THE PAINT ON THE FRONT DOORS IS MESSED UP BECAUSE THE PANELS WERE NOT SECURED AND SHIFTED AFTER IT WAS PAINTED. BECAUSE I REALLY NEEDED IT AND DUE TO THE AGGRAVATION OF SHIPPING IT BACK I DECIDED TO KEEP IT AND REPAINT IT MYSELF.

Comments about LifeStyles Microwave Cabinet:

I first have to admit that after reading the other reviews I was worried and honestly prepared for anything. I was ready for holes that did not line up, directions that were hard to read, honestly I was prepared for the worst. Well, it arrived this morning, and after I drug it all the way upstairs (we live on the second floor), I got all the pieces out and started assembling it, I got it done (by myself) in a little over an hour. The directions were not the worst I have ever seen, but they could be easier to read, but needless to say I figured it out. All of the screw holes did line up, although the screws for the back are dimpling the wood on the underside of the top.
When I was putting it together I kept thinking this is flimsy, but once the back was put on and it was all said and done it is rather sturdy.
All in all this is a great product, and it is full of stuff in my kitchen right now, two hours after bringing it into my home.

I will recommend this product to anyone.

More explicit directions would be useful, I didn't know how to use the bolts and cams, and it wasn't explained, so I had to go to my local hardware store for help.

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about LifeStyles Microwave Cabinet:

Ok - the directions drove me crazy! Someone needs to better oversee the process of lining up the holes that are used with the screws much better. I had to create my own holes on some parts of the back. The hinges were near impossible to line up and when I was finished they don't swing freely or close together properly.
I still love the cabinet, and will have someone take a look at how I can make the hinges better - but really you need to have someone check out the way things match up.

Comments about LifeStyles Microwave Cabinet:

I love this cabinet! The cabinet perfectly holds my microwave and toaster oven and all of my microwavable dishes underneath. I love looking in my kitchen and seeing this set! I bought it in accordance with the Four door pantry, Tater tower, and hide-away trash can/rolling island. The color did not perfectly match the trash can, but it still looks wonderful. The wood is nice and the item is of the highest quality. I will buy from Brylane again and again!

Comments about LifeStyles Microwave Cabinet:

My husband is a celiac , and I have to bake all his bread and things that are made of flour, buy using a gluten free flour. I put the things in my pantry, but pretty soon ran out of room, saw this and loved it My mixer is on top shelf, my bread maker is on middle shelf and in cupboard below are all , almost , his mixes.. I put swiveling casters on it so I can move it around and clean underneath it. Wouldn't trade it for nothing. I put it together myself, very easily.
