Elegant storage

"I took a previous reviewers suggestion and purchased two of them to use as night stands and they immediately changed the look of my bedroom. Well crafted, sturdy and elegant pieces. There was minimal assembly required (shelving) and it did have an odd smell to it (I think it was something rubbed on the wood to finish it) but after a week of keeping the doors open it is better (I would still buy it despite this!)."

Perfect Addition

"I purchased two of these and paired them with the hutch. They are great for storage and can be put in a small place. Great storage for all entertaining needs and they have a nice rich color. Perfect addition to my dining room!"

Great Product at Great Price

"I needed a sideboard/server for a small formal dining room in my contemporary house. After searching many furniture outlets for over a year and not finding any servers narrow enough (14" deep or less) to fit space, compliment my dark wood, round formal dining table, while leaving room to pull out dining chairs and still walk completely around room, I remembered seeing this base in a friends dining room and asked where they purchased it. To my delight searching Crate & Barrel site, I found and purchased two glass door bases on sale for $99, which is less than half the regular price. I then purchased a 52"Lx14"Wx3/8"T piece of tempered glass to put on top of the 2 bases and, Voila! , I created the perfect sideboard with storage for my china & serviceware to fit my need. The bases arrived well packed/undamaged and to my delight, the wood is very rich, bases well built, and doors well fit. I've gotten many compliments and inquiries as to where I purchased my server and no one can believe how economically I created it out of these 2 bases and a seperately purchased glass top. I couldn't be more pleased."

Great quality at a great price

"I got two bases and two hutches when both were on sale (the hutches for $99 which is less than half the regular price). I put them together, and they look like a single, seamless cabinet. The wood is very rich and the drawers and doors are solid and well-built. I've gotten many compliments on it, and no one can believe it is four separate pieces. The whole unit is relatively low profile, which is great for an urban home, but it's is also very roomy with plenty of storage. I couldn't be more pleased."

Perfect Bar Stand

"Great bar stand for our apartment. Solid materials and good design. We realized that we cant fit both glasses and full bottles in the cabinet space, but it's not the biggest deal."

Great Storage and Expandability

"We purchased four of the Mcallister Door/Drawer base pieces and are very happy with the Mcallister line. We purchased the Mcallister Wine Storage Base as the center storage piece with two Mcallister Door/Drawer Base pieces on each side. This line is great because it allowed us to customize and build the storage unit we needed for our NYC apartment."

extra storage in a small space

"We have two of these in the corners of our little dining room. They look very sophisticated and give us extra space to store serving dishes, extra silverware, and wine tools, relieving the strain on our crowded kitchen cabinets."

lots of uses

"I bought this piece to be used as an night stand for my bedroom - I have a full size night table on one side - and because the bedroom is small - could not fit a matching set - this was the perfect size and makes the room look balanced. It is a great storage piece."

an alter ego cabinet

"I know that most people would use this piece of furniture in their dining room but I knew that this would be the perfect solution for my bathroom storage, especially my makeup. When I saw the pullout serving shelf I knew that this was my future makeup shelf. It comes in handy because all of my makeup is in one place and not all over the sink and falling on to the floor. The cabinet is great for storing towels and other bath necessities. This is a must have for any person who is rushed in the morning, afternoon, or for that matter the evening."

Great Quality, Great Size

"I bought 3 of these to assemble side by side as a buffet. When they arrived, all I had to do was slide them out of the box and they were all assembled already! They are perfect since they are deep but not too deep to take up a lot of room. They hold a lot and are extremely sturdy and great quality. The finish is a deep brown and very elegant."
