Lea: We ordered 3 bookshelves and a desk from the Sauders Cottage Road line. Love the look and quality of the product considering the cost. We did have a couple cracked pieces with 2 of the bookshelves but customer service is outstanding! They were easy to reach (no waiting on hold forever) and request for replacement parts quickly shipped by FEDEX. The products are new so we will see how they hold up, but very pleased so far with the product and company.

PrimaCinderella: This is a solid, simple piece of furniture. It is neither off white/ivory as described and looks a bit basic in design. Overall happy with it.

Gadget Man: This is a nice looking unit for the price and has decent structural integrity. Overall the instructions are very good but there are some things you need to be careful about. The shelf/base pieces are labeled with white stickers so you don’t wrongly place them during assembly – the problem is that not all the pieces have white ID stickers, one or two have the ID code inked on the rough side of the board (so don’t panic, now you know). Next the bottom base has a finished and unfinished edges (Back and front). Intuition tells you the finished edge faces front – It does not (at least in my case) and doing so will mess up your assembly. In my case the rough edge faces front (but no worry it gets covered over in a later step). Lastly for some crazy reason the top base support board is not fastened to the side panels (unlike the lower support base which is attached to sides). I used my own side brackets to secure the top base to the side panels to avoid gaps and give better structural integrity. The instructions even mention lifting up the unit without the fastening the backing on the unit may cause the entire unit to collapse, YIKES (its only because the top base is not attached...

Amazon Customer: Absolutely delighted with these bookshelves, good quality, sturdy, easy assembly with clear instructions. It only took my husband and I one day to build one. Saunder has always been a reliable company.

Stephane V.: Très bon rapport qualité prix. Facile à assembler. Manque un peu de robustesse.

Online Shopper: For inexpensive furniture which isn't designed to last, Sauder has been a decent alternative to bankrupting families to fill their homes.

Over the years, Sauder has been hit or miss (usually miss), as "furniture" usually deteriotes either by weak structure design or the fake wood paper starts to peel off.

I was very skeptical at purchasing this due to history, but there have been some good pieces. For the price, the look, and the color, I took a chance.

I am *extremely* impressed with this cabinet. It's very sturdy, looks incredible, and the doors don't look lopsided because the company finally used adjustable hinges (about time, Sauder!).

Construction took about 30 minutes, and the instructions easy to follow with one exception: there is a section instructing us to slide on an edge piece, but there is no indication on which direction it is to be applied. This piece is what is seen above the doors, and if it's installed upside down, as I did, there is a gap between the shelf and doors.

If this should happen to you, the correction is extremely simple: untorque one of the front edges (either side, doesn't matter), and lift it off. Then slide the...

MacI: Very disappointed. Five of the parts, including both of the long end pieces, were severely chipped or cracked. Was suspicious when the shipping box looked like it had been resealed with massive amount of tape.
