This is the WORST WARDROBE I've ever purchased, and actually the worst piece of furniture I've ever put together. The doors have almost a 1/2 inch gap in between them when closed, it is so unsightly! Unbelievable that they couldn't cut the doors wide enough to meet when closed. I called the PREPAC company and now they say they can't find me in their system. Again, UNBELIEVABLE! They better send me new doors, and I just hope they meet together and have no gap like the ones it came with!Second of all, the backerboard that covers the back side of the wardrobe only goes half way down!!! How CHEAP. Like they couldn't provide enough board to cover the whole back of the unit??? It probably only would have cost them a $1 to do it, how expensive can cheap, thin, card-board-like MDF be?
The bottom half of the wardrobe where the drawers are is completely open on the back, dust is sure to get in, and I imagine if you had a small cat or other animal that it could somehow find it's way in there, too! haha Ridiculous! It just looks odd, and unfinished on the back with the missing board.
They are supposedly sending me extra backerboard to cover it, if they can "find me in their system," but either way,
WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO TAKE TIME OUT OF MY DAY TO make 2 PHONE CALLS, send SEVERAL EMAILS, and PROVIDE PHOTOS, and MODEL NUMBERS, and PART MEASUREMENTS and PROOF OF PURCHASE--just to get the wardrobe to LOOK NORMAL, like it should from THE START??????
Just poor construction and I know the backerboard missing was done by design, because it doesn't show backerboard on the bottom half of the armoire in the directions either, and tacking backerboard to the top of it is the last step in those directions.
LONG STORY SHORT, DON'T ORDER THIS PRODUCT UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE SORELY DISAPPOINTED, AND HAVE THE AGGRAVATION OF CALLING FOR NEW PARTS WITHOUT THE GUARANTEE THAT THOSE PARTS WILL WORK ANY BETTER THAN THE FIRST ONES.Well built, believe this thing weighs over 250lbs. I found it was best to construct it very close to final position, as it doesn't move very easily and the door latches are kind of flimsy. Should work well for a couple of years until my daughter gets a little older, but this is definately a kid's wardrobe as advertised. Full size hangers don't fit.

Works great but the drawers hardly fit anything inside. The knobs are really cheep but easy enough to swtich out. Very pleased with the closet overall!When I received this product I was very excited as I've been looking for something like this for a while. I found it a bit difficult to put together (maybe because it was the first time I've done something like this before myself) once it was done it was lovely but there is a small gap between the doors (about 2 inches) which I don't really liked on a first look but kind of got used to it now. I also think that the drawers could be way more deeper as there's a lot of wasted space in the back once you close them, but you don't realize that unless you see the assembled wardrobe from the back!!! Other than that I think is lovely!!!this item was really easy to build and was just what i needed for my daughters room, I would recommend this for anyone who is handy and needs a decent wardrobe
