I bought it from Walmart and had it shipped to my house. For $95 I figured it was worth a shot. Now, just to be clear this is not a safe. It will not protect anything from fire, water, or a burglar with a screwdriver. It's designed to keep small fingers away from danger.
Opening up the box, it seemed like it was well finished. The paint has a pretty nice shine. After looking over the parts a little more closely, I was soon disappointed by the packaging from the factory. There is a large 2" dent in one of the side and some scrapes in the paint. Two of the corners were bent over like it had been dropped. I'm not sure if this was poor handling by Stack On, Walmart, Or Fedex but either way it is not packaged appropriately for shipping.
Assembly went OK. You WILL scratch it and I had to bang the pieces together to get them to fit. It just isn't designed to fit like a glove. I was also disappointed with the shelf that is mounted near the top. It is so narrow that the only thing you are going to be able to store on it is a box of ammo and some magazines. I had assumed it would fit my hand guns but it's only about 3" wide. Maybe that's my fault for assuming but I figured it would be the length and width of the cabinet.
What I do like about it is that it was $95. It came out of the box with dents and scratches but it's going in my closet anyway. If you want a cabinet that looks pristine, find something else. If you just need a place to lock up your guns, it's not bad.
