Customer Review :
Sturdy, elegant, classy but with a few issus : Crosley Furniture KF40001CBK Newport Expandable Cabinet Home Bar
The other reviews listed with this product are pretty much spot-on. The end-result is a pretty nice looking piece of furniture. Looking closer at the finished product, however, tells a somewhat different story.
Shipping: Fast and easy. Arrived in three boxes, just like everyone else. The main boxes are quite heavy, but one person should be able to drag them into your house.
Unpacking: All the hardware was there, but there was a big scratch on the panel where the magnet for the doors mount. Instead of calling the manufacturer for a new part, I just bought a black wood stain pen. Looks great. However, for $400, I was a bit let down.
Assembly: not difficult, but didn't go together easily. This is caused, in my opinion, by a lack of precision at the factory. The cam locks are quite difficult to twist all the way, and I ended up breaking about 12 of them. Not twisting them all the way isn't really an option either. Those doors have to be tight to prevent sagging. As others have noted, use a big (but short) flat-head screwdriver to torque those cam locks. Took about 4-5 hours to assemble. On a positive note, I emailed Crosley and they sent me 30 new cam locks in about a week, no charge. These seemed a lot stronger then the ones that came originally. However, I torqued one too tightly and pierced the side of the door! Pulled out the ol' stain pen and it's difficult to see if you're not looking for it.
Fit and finish: Again, it looks like an elegant piece of furniture just by looking at it. The nickel door knobs are a nice touch and there's a nickel "Crosley" plate inside the drawer (a nifty little detail). Once I replaced all the cams (see above), the unit was quite sturdy. It's got plenty of room for all your bottles and glasses. The doors seem to support the table top well when fully opened, but I couldn't get the doors to align properly. I have to pick one of the doors up slightly just to close it, and when I forget, I dent that beautiful black veneer.
Final verdict: If this was about a hundred dollars cheaper, it would get 4 or even 5 stars. However, for the price, I feel like it should go together a bit more cleanly than it does. I am satisfied with the end result; I just don't feel like I got the value for my money.
