I was shocked at just how terribly this piece held up. After less than a week of light use it broke. The hinge that controls the paneled door is laughably flawed and snapped from where it was anchored by cheap glue almost immediately. I bought it because I needed something cheap, and cheap is what I got. I tried repairing and reinforcing it, but the piece is so unbelievably weak that no amount of work could get it to function as it should.I put a lot of furniture together, and everything I have bought in the last year that I have built works like a charm, in some cases better than expected, with the exception of this. I think if I built a hamper out of styrofoam it would have held up better.
