Nice cabinet, but watch for hidden damage
I ordered this cabinet online (not available in my local store) and it arrived within 7-10 days in a massive 150lb. box. It shipped from CA to my home in WI so you can imagine what it must have gone thorough en route. Something this large and heavy is bound to be awkward and suffer the consequences, but I was pleasantly surprised at how well it was all packed. Make sure to give yourself a lot of room for assembly - I would suggest a carpeted floor but if you're like me this was destined for my garage so that is where I put it together. The shipping box (when flattened) makes a nice cushion if you're working on a concrete slab - just be ready for a FULL 42 gal. trash bag of styrofoam packing pieces and a whole lot of cardboard. Most of the metal parts are nested within other parts and I have to give Seville credit for the way they packed it, but inevitably you're going to get some dinged corners here and there in a box this size and weight. I probably had a half dozen or so damaged areas and elected not to request new ones as the replacements probably wouldn't be any better. In the end it just didn't bother me that much as it was (after all) for the garage - and the corners that did get dinged up ended up hidden by the corner protector pieces. Everything is epoxy coated except the doors (which are stainless steel) and the finish seems quite durable, except in the areas where it got dinged up - there the coating just flaked off. The key lock they include for the doors is pretty wimpy - don't expect it to keep anyone out other than small children. Assembly was pretty straight forward and took a couple hours by myself. They even include a wrench, screwdriver, and a spare bag of one each of the necessary screws. All of the parts are clearly labeled and the different screws are separated in numbered bags - makes it very easy to follow the somewhat archaic instructions. After assembling the side panels and doors, it helps to have two people to screw the assembled panels together - I did it by myself with some makeshift supports but it would have been easier with an extra set of hands. Hanging the doors would also be easier with two people. The unit comes with four leveling feet which look quite sturdy, but I didn't use them. There are threaded holes on the bottom as an option to mount four casters in place of the feet (caster sets for this unit are available on the Seville Classics web site, as well as additional shelves), but they were out of stock there so I just picked up my own 5" casters with a standard 4" x 4 1/2" base plate, 300 lb. rated each. Going this route you have to provide your own bolts for the casters (I assume they would come with the ones you get from Seville), but I had to buy 16 bolts and guess at the size as everything on the unit is Metric thread. I actually brought the bottom panel with me to the hardware store so I could make sure the bolts that I bought fit before I got all the way back home. The caster bolts that fit were M8 x 35mm, coarse thread, with a flat washer and locking washer for each. All in all it's a great cabinet - plenty of storage with a weight capacity of 600 lbs. (150 lbs. per shelf) and having it on wheels makes it easy to move if you need to get behind it for cleaning, etc. Also having it up off the ground should protect it a bit from corrosion.
PRODUCT QUALITY IS OK, BUT ARRIVED DAMAGED!!
Ordered 7 units, they all arrived with some damage occurred during shipping. My main criticism is with delivery, this cabinets come in boxes weighing almost 100 lbs. or maybe more , packed with thin Styrofoam, and they were shipped through regular FEDEX carrier. Imagine a delivery guy handling 700 lbs. by himself . Some of the boxes were so damaged that you could see the twisted metal through the holes without even opening the boxes. After all SAM'S was diligent replacing the damaged units, Product quality seems to be OK, you are paying for what you get. Just be prepared to tighten almost 200 screws, definitely assembly will go quicker if you have an extra set of hands. Product looks nice once assembled and fits a lot.
Nice larger cabinets.
This cabinet was as described. There were a ton of screws and if you are not careful it was easy to cross thread the screws. A few of the panels were bent in shipping but the bends either came out as I put it together or are in the back so they aren't visible.
Not what is marketed as
I purchased this cabinet based on the description. I was very disappointed. The sides and the doors consist of top and bottom panels held together with small screws. The back is four panels. It is basically two boxes stacked one on top of the other. This leaves a junction in the middle of the cabinet that makes the entire assembly very unstable. I will look more closely next time.
Nice cabinets
The cabinets are great I love the big size being 4 foot wide by 6 foot high by 2 foot deep your website needs to tell people what size they are. pretty easy to put together too the only criticism I would have is that the doors are little flimsy but overall they're great
Too many screws and dents easily.
Very flimsy for something that has to be assembled. Also, nothing should ever have so many screws. Ridiculous. Buy a used already assembled cabinet on facebook marketplace. This thing is as flimsy as paper and ends up dented by the time all the screws are in. Oh my goodness. Terrible.
This is my 7th Seville product
Their line of products are a great value. They go together very well. Make sure you don't cross thread the bolts. They look great and are very solid when complete. The only reason for 4 stars on quality is packaging. I had them shipped to my house and they get little dings and bends. Most can be bent back during assembly and don't show. I would not hesitate to order them again.
Nice quality but had some damage
Everything went well in constructing the unit. I had a couple bent parts that seemed to be damaged in transit. There were some holes in the box that lined up where the pieces were placed. I took some pics and was going to tell them about the 2 damaged parts but I ended up fixing them. Luckily they were located in the back of the unit so they are not visible. I have many Seville products and I like them a lot. But I have to say that bent parts occur more often than I would expect, half of which are shipping damage. Most of the time I can fix them but have on occasion requested replacements and Seville Classics sent them promptly. This model is new and the extra width and depth make it useful for certain things compared with the other cabinet they make. It looks very good with my other stainless steel Seville products.

It's OK
For a big cabinet in a little box, it's ok. "UltraHD" has nothing to do with them being heavy duty. They are NOT heavy duty. Assembly was simple enough. I bought two of them, and before I finished assembling the first one, I discovered the most concerning flaw. The bottom of the cabinet is very flimsy. I leaned on it when I was squatting to attach the lower magnets, and the whole bottom bent right in the center. The welds on the reinforcement piece are terrible, and it nearly fell off completely. I ended up fitting two 2x4s to span the entire width of the bottom for support. After this modification, the bottom is rock solid. After some rearranging in my shoppe, I ended up temporarily putting some parts bins on top of one of the two cabinets. While the load isn't enough to permanently bend the top, it did noticeably sag. On the upside, the shelves seem to be more solidly constructed than the top and bottom of the cabinet. I haven't seen any issues there, yet. The cabinets are big and roomy, and if you don't put too much weight on the bottom or top of the cabinet, I think they'll serve well enough. They cost about 60% of what heavy duty cabinets from Uline would have cost. If I knew then what I know now about these cabinets, I would have just spent the extra money.
Good Enough, once I got all the parts
I ordered two of these on-line. They both showed up with a duplicate of one large panel, and missing another require panel. Both??? Yes, both. Called Seville and they shipped out both the replacement parts, but I was left with two giant piles of parts in my garage for two weeks waiting for those replacement parts. The parts did come though, and after that I was able to assemble both units fine. There were a few small dents, and a few of the screw mounts came lose as I was assembling it, but nothing I couldn't live with. Much of the metal is thin and dents or warps easily. With hindsight I would have spent a couple hundred more and gotten a heavier duty unit I think. The units look good and serve their purpose fine though.
