I originally had Tarva as my pantry in my old apartment, and while the drawers were nice options for storage, I was looking for a replacement cabinet. I wanted to be very price conscious, as I wanted to use part of my stimulus to help buy storage for my kitchen - but not all of it!; and I needed a lot of additional storage because I moved into a place with a pretty small kitchen area (really just three drawers and four cabinets, which is not enough if you like to cook/have to cook at home!). I was worried at first about spending so much, as this piece was described as MDF with laminate and the doors were noted as difficult to hang, but it turned out beautiful and with tons of space for my dishes and glassware. The top is already loaded up with my rice cooker, my slow cooker, my dutch ovens, my toaster, paper towels, cases of soda... It holds a lot at almost 5 ft across! Im really happy with my purchase and I cant wait to start using it in my kitchen/dining room! I would definitely say take your time in construction, but I do think it was worth the $200 to get cardboard boxes out of my kitchen (which was my previous storage option from moving!).
So nice! Glad I took a chance!
