Great so far
I loved the way I thought this trunk would fit into our home. Its elegant and understated but eye catching at the same time. The wood seems to be high quality. We've had it about 2 weeks and are pleased thus far. I like that this would be "claasy" storage for any future kiddie toys. Seems like a better solution than plastic tubs

rustic but solid
Picked this cabinet up today.... not nearly as pretty as the mango wood one we bought already from c&b but that would have been another $500 so I feel ok about it. Not excited like I was with the golden mango wood one. I can say the knot puttying is lame. Imho.

Beautiful entry statement
I bought this piece to put in my entryway, because I needed something that was solid wood, with drawers and shelf space.
Not thinking too clearly, I elected to pick it up myself. It was HEAVY and very solid! However, once I got it in the house and put it where I wanted it, it was just perfect. The color is gorgeous, the lines are clean, and people who come into my home for visits are just amazed. I highly recommend this piece.

Exactly as advertised
I ordered the entry way cabinet online and the process was easy and everything that they said would happen----Did.
It was delivered on time, in perfect condition and by very professional drivers.
The cabinet is just as described in the catalog and is beautiful. Drawers work as they should and doors open and close evenly. It is a quality product. I commend Crate and Barrel for their product and their service. Very satisfied customer.

Admired piece
The Design Team purchased the Kavari chest for the main lobby of our condominium. It was immediately loved by all - no mean feat for a diverse resident population of nearly 100 people. Most want one on their floor as well (we bought other pieces from CB for each floor). The chest makes an elegant, but not too fussy statement to all who enter our building when paired with a high back chair, unusual lamp and framed artwork.

Perfect as a buffet in small dining room!
I had to do a lot of searching for something that would work as a buffet in our very small dining room, and this piece is absoultely perfect! We've had this for over a year and it still looks lovely (a few scratches on top, but this was due to a particular incident that I think would have scratched any wood - in general, it doesn't seem to be very prone to scratches, although we don't move the stuff on top of it very much).
I looked at one in the store before buying off the internet, but I was still surprised at what a heavy, substantial piece of furniture it is when it arrived. Ours had an odor at first (from the stain, I guess) but that went away quickly. LOVE IT!!!

crack in side of piece
I'm so saddened by this purchase. I have 2 of them. Bought one last year that is in great shape, and one a month ago. It was fine when it first came, and now has a huge crack down the side of the piece. I was so happy with the first one, but now i'm so sad the second one i purchased is a dud. ugh!

Great Piece for My Bathroom
I needed a linen chest for my husband's newly renovated bathroom. All the linen towers or cabinets I considered either were too tall or would not fit in the small space I needed to place it in this bathroom. I found this cabinet online and determined the measurements were perfect. The rest of the bathroom have cherry wood accessories and I was so pleased to see the deep red and gold in the wood; it goes so well with the whole decorating scheme of the room. The construction is heavy and sturdy; the drawers roll out and in well. Even though this is advertised as an entryway cabinet, it is narrow enough for our needs to hold all the towels for this bathroom and provides generous counter space. The only drawback was the price, but I was getting nowhere in the department stores finding the size I needed. On the bright side, I elected to spend the money to have it delivered to my home. The delivery van showed up on time and they brought it in and took it out of its crate. I have already decided that when I sell my house, this piece is going with me!

Beautiful coordinating piece that rocks
I love this cabinet and it coordinates nicely with the hunter trunk. I would gladly give it a 5 star rating if it didn't rock back and fourth without floor pads.

Nice looking cabinet
Nice looking cabinet. A little rustic for our tastes, but overall we are satisfied. We had to return the first one delivered because the door was made too long and was wearing down the wood on the inside. The second cabinet delivered had its front door knobs off center. We decided not to return it again as it kind of added to the rustic look and didn't want to deal with the nuisance of blocking off the entire day to wait for a delivery.

Perfect
I love this collection! I have been looking a long time for a timeless piece of furniture to put in my entry. I looked for size, durability, something that wouldn't tip over & good price! This met all my needs. I love the color the drawers and the cabinet space is adequate enough for our entry & this is a heavy piece. I don't have to worry about my toddlers pulling the piece over, unlike most entry furniture pieces this size. Love it! I also purchased the media piece & it is also wonderful.

Beautiful Cabinet
I am very happy with this purchace. This is a solid wood, very heavy piece, great for extra storage. The wood color and finish is beautiful. It initially had a strong varnish smell, but this is lessening over the week since delivered. Felt pads, which I planned to apply anyway, took care of a slight rock. The online description is accurate; this cabinet has a lot of character, and the look of an antique.

Great looks, average quality
I love the look of this piece and it fit the space so I didn't return it, but I have to say I was disappointed in the quality for the price. There are no stops to prevent the drawers from being pulled all the way out and there are places where the inside of the back of the drawers is not completely finished. It also looks like one piece of wood was a little too short so they filled in a crack at the back of the bottom on the inside with some kind of putty. The doors also rub. It looks great and the outside is fine, but I thought the inside and the functioning of it should be better for the price.

Happy with this purchase
I saw the console in a C & B store and loved the looks...then I saw the entry cabinet in a catalog and went for it.! It is great quality and really adds to my decor. This purcahse was worth it!

perfect fit
i bought this piece for my bedroom, just underneath the window. it fits perfectly and is narrow enough that you can still have easy access to the window. it is beautifully crafted and is a wonderful addition to my room.

Good Value
I am very happy with this piece. It's heavy and solid (mine didn't rock), and I don't mind the routed doors. For the price, it can't be beat.

Off Balance
The quality of this piece is beautiful. When they brought it into my home I was awed at it's beauty until I touched it and it rocked back then when I removed my hand it rocked forward. My husband came home and placed a few felt pads under the legs and now it's fine. My issue is for the cost of this piece one would think you would not have to do anything to it when you got it in your home but admire it.

Almost perfect..
If it didn't have those silly routed lines on the doors, it would be perfect. Otherwise, I'm happy with the build, although the wood is of rather unknown quality; similar to their mango wood products. Only time will tell...
C&B, take the routed lines off of the doors!
