South Shore Furniture, Step One Collection, Armoire

We own about 20 pieces of RTA furniture. It's just about all our budget can afford, and it seems like many things are shipped this way today anyway. Of all our RTA furniture, South Shore has consistently surprised us with quality of craftsmanship, ease of assembly (compared to most), and lasting sturdiness.

We have been gradually purchasing all the pieces for the Step One Endless Chocolate collection for a couple of years now. We own the dresser, 2 nightstands, headboard, and now the armoire. The armoire is by far my favorite piece, and is extremely sturdy (we purchased a Sauder comparable armoire and were NOT impressed). It shows scratches easily, as all dark furniture does, but keep a black Sharpie handy for those times that it gets scuffed, and you'll not even be able to tell where the imperfections are!

One thing I have to say about assembly of this product is that the hinges were extremely easy to "get right" as you will know is very important with the vast array of RTA furniture out there. This is the first piece we've owned with hinged doors that was a breeze to put together, easy to adjust when necessary, and neither of the doors hang crooked or bang each other when opening and closing. For RTA furniture, I can't recommend a better brand than South Shore.

I bought this armoire to use for storing kids art supplies, my craft supplies and assorted homeschool items. The assembly took a reasonable amount of time. The finished product looks really very nice. I don't think it "looks" too much like an "assemble it yourself" storage unit. The amount of usable space for storage is ample and the adjustable shelves make it very versatile. The finish is a lovely, deep espresso color. The sleek, matte-finish hardware handles add some sophistication to the appearance. Overall, I think this is a quality product for a very reasonable price.

The armoire is nice looking but the instructions were a but unclear and almost every piece had a scratch on it. It takes 2 people to assemble the piece. The pieces were not packaged properly. After assembling the armoire, I do like the look of it but am unhappy about all the scratches. No touch up paint was included. Nice looking but would not order again.

The "Step One Collection" from South Shore Furniture has renewed my faith in "put-together" furniture. Not as if I will be rushing to replace my all wood bedroom furniture or anything, however, for an additional piece now an again; this line of "put-together" furniture delivers hands down. It assembles into a relatively sturdy and reliable piece of furniture that looks stylish and functions well. I assembled it alone in two hours working at a comfortable pace, although it would have been nice to have an extra set of hands. In the future when furniture needs arise, South Shore's "One Step Collection," will be my first stop.

I really love this armoire. It's perfect for me because I needed something with shelves so I could put all my shirts shorts and jeans into one thing. I got tired of using a regular dresser and went for something with shelves. It was a little tough towards the end finishing up putting it together but I had to do it on my own. So that could be why. But this product really is everything that I was hoping for. I highly recommend it.
