I guess they must have gotten sick of returns due to damage during shipping because the packaging was beyond what I've seen in just about anything that I've ordered. Not only was there the standard sheets of styrofoam padding between all of the pieces, but all of the edges and ends were encased in metal panels to protect the contents.When I first opened the box I thought those metal pieces were part of the cabinet, but they were there purely for shipping. So despite the hefty weight of it all, the item did arrive undamaged, which is nice.The assembly was fairly straight-forward, only one type of fastener was used for everything. The one thing I do wish it had was some way to attach the top of the cabinet to the wall to prevent it from tipping over. Right now I have shims under the front so that it leans back ever so slightly. I can easily drill holes in the inside panels and just use some screws, drywall anchors, and washers to do it though, so no biggie.The metal isn't especially heavy duty feeling, but not really flimsy either, I feel it should hold up pretty well. The door hinges are not heavy duty either so keep that in mind, if you feel like you'll be opening and closing this thing daily it might not be for you, but if you're using it for storage that will be opened every now and then it should be fine. I guess just treat it like a medium duty cabinet and it should suit your needs pretty well. I wouldn't consider it a heavy duty cabinet like it's advertised. But I'm satisfied with it.

I haven't assembled it yet, but just unpacked it. It comes with a very nice instruction booklet, entirely in English. Bear in mind, I've never received a storage cabinet through the mail before, but the packing just blows me away. The box very clearly says fragile on it, but this packing is so solid I don't know if a direct hammer blow to it would dent it in the slightest - so impressed.To get a little into packing particulars, there's lots of foam, but what's impressive to me is all the rock solid packing there is. There's three slabs of VERY heavy wood (you couldn't call it cardboard it's so compressed) protecting the outer portions. Also protecting the outer portions along the edges, at least two inches deep, is some sort of metal that is floppier than the device itself (which really isn't floppy) but it so protective. And to think this thing was over $100 cheaper than the competition, though a bit smaller. It's precisely the size I was looking for, and each shelf will hold 200lbs, unlike some of the competitors.As to the condition of the unit, what do you expect from such packing? But just for the record, aside from a very small almost unseen blemish on an inner door, it's absolutely perfect.I don't expect any problems assembling this, but if there are I'll report back.(edited) - Yes, the instruction manual lays out the graphical diagram much too small. I am having a great deal of trouble with a couple of the parts, and still don't know how to mount them for sure. I also have had to cut through the steel with places where there weren't pre-drilled holes, which is bad, because it makes me think there's not supposed to be holes there. The manual diagrams are a problem, because no matter how much you might be able to blow it up, the problem is both of too much crammed together, together with not a lot of sense as to what is up or down with it. Time provides some answers I think, as I've now thought one of my parts was mounted incorrectly (it had a hole there anyway). You have to do things like try to put the door up against the frame to find how the mounting you tried just don't work. The slight blowups they have don't help either because there's no sense of up or down by such means (for example, is part E shown with it's solid side up or down). I expect I'll get it one of these days, but for now I'm having to guess an awful lot.BTW, the manual says to wear gloves because some of the edges are sharp. Naturally, I ignored that advice. SO what happens? One of the pieces fell when I wasn't lifting it correctly, and it cut my stomach a bit in a few places. No, I've never heard of a stomach glove, so onward I persist with my BARE HANDS.(Last Update) - I finally got over the hump and finished the assembly. Over time, I couldn't help but notice that parts E and F seemed to be inter-changeable. Then I started to think the unthinkable, that perhaps, just perhaps, I had the thing upside down!!!! You see, they want you to put it together standing up for the most part, but unfortunately to the untrained eye, it just looks like a bunch of slabs with holes cut into it, so much so that they almost look alike, so in such cases, surely there's not a top and bottom, correct?The problem is there's so many holes that you could mount parts which you know nothing about, in all sorts of ways, since the drawings were way too cramped to get a lot of true perspective. I did notice earlier that there was a portion meant to hold something up, but as I thought I had it right, I surmised it was meant to hold up the roof piece. Again, the drawings didn't have that different part of the interior slabs drawn at all. Later I found out there was another portion which was barely drawn out on a couple of drawings if I looked through every one of them very intensely, which would have also told me I had the thing upside down. None of the parts state they have a top or bottom to them, nor do the drawings - you just have to hope you had it on the correct side to begin with. Naturally, I had to drill a few holes to make my botched attempts seem to work (drilling through steel isn't easy!). How do you know they didn't miss holes if the part seems to fit there?The only other problem I had is one of the door latches was VERY hard to get it to move up and down, and I finally had to get a small object to hammer the thing so it would come out and do it's latching (adding WD40 barely helped at all). I think if I could give amazon reviews half stars, I would give this 4 1/2, not a five. I had way too much trouble with this because of the rather unclear instructions, which was mostly the blame of the drawings and the fact none of the slab parts were labeled for top and bottom. Sure, I was pretty dense, but I've never put one together before, and even youtube had no cabinets put together like this one. I did figure it out after a while, just about the time I was about to tear my hair out for the second or third time. Now I wonder how I'm going to dispose of that stalwart packing this thing came in.I have one last comment for those who don't like the sort of key situation with these cabinets, that is, that you have to lock the cabinet to take the key out. While it's not a highly desirable situation as it is, the cabinet can be left completely open without the key in. All you have to do is open the keyed side, then turn the key to lock the door. Then you can shut both doors almost completely, or leave them both totally open. The only difference is that locking the key mechanism with the door open, prevents you from totally closing the keyed door, but as long as nothing rams against that door, the rod sticking up, and the cabinet, won't get damaged. Needless to say if something does hit up against it, you will get some amount of damage to either the rod or the cabinet main structure.(The Last, Last Update) I added this just for completeness, because something else has developed. I spoke earlier on how to virtually close the cabinet, yet leave it unlocked (and by "unlocked" in this case I mean the DOORS aren't locked, but the locking rod is sticking out) without the key in. I'm pretty sure when I first got this some months back, it would not let me pull the key out unless the securing rod were in the locked position. If that indeed were the case, it no longer does that. I have my key on my everyday keychain, which is quite heavy, and a few days ago I left the cabinet open with the key inside. The keychain fell out of that unlocked position. I tested it afterwards and I can not pull the key out every single time I leave it in the unlocked position, though it will stay in particularly if it's not as weighted as mine. Overall, this would suggest to me the key mechanism, should it frequently be left with a heavy keychain left in it over some time, will loosen up and the cabinet then be made entirely independent of the key. It may have nothing to do with the weight of a keychain, and it may just loosen up due to frequent use. I have had mine opened and closed at least twice a day since I started this review.

Double-check the instructions! The item otherwise was easily assembled with great instructions (keep a torch handy). A really well-packed item that looks great assembled and thankfully the delivery guys carried it in for us.
