Difficult doors
Date:04/10/2013
Love the piece and agree with everyone's feedback that it looks more expensive than it was. Assembly was relatively easy but the doors were not easy at all. I couldn't get them "quite right." The spaces between the doors are not equal as they are in the picture.

Stylish Vanity
Date:03/04/2013
I was looking for a modern, stylish vanity which is not too swirly, and I found this credenza. It worked out nicely in my bedroom and love the look! The only thing was the assembly that took some time for my husband. Other than that, I'm more than satisfied!

Great looking furniture
Date:03/02/2013
We've had our eye on this for a long while and finally purchased it a few months ago. It has been well worth the wait! We are using it as storage in our living room, it provides more storage than we thought it would. Assembly took a little while but wasn't too complicated. The credenza is sturdy and stylish and looks much more expensive than it actually is. The wood base complements the white unit beautifully. We love it!

Sturdy, Stunning, Sophisticated
Date:02/14/2013
LOVE the Alba Credenza! I had my eye on this piece for a long time, so i saved my pennies and finally claimed it as my own. While its unique design certainly sets is apart from other similar pieces out there, the Alba Credenza really is well made and quite solid.
Assembly was not painless, but at least the directions have words and all the parts are there. One word of advice (and I strongly caution potential buyers to heed these words): put the hinges on the doors before they are mounted to the rest of the piece. In other words, affix the door hinges from a vertical position to avoid having to screw them in from a horizontal angle - it's painful and difficult. And use Vaseline!
Great product, I would definitely recommend to others.

Gorgeous!
Date:09/10/2012
Needed extra storage in our all white bedroom but didn't want too many dressers. I love the shape and wood legs paired with the glossy white. We are using it to store sweaters and jeans. Goes great with the gloss chest and dressers.

Sleek. Stylish. Perfect.

Beautiful credenza. Looks very stylish and more "expensive" than what it is! Has a bit of a scandivavian feel.

Beautiful, unique, solid
Date:07/15/2012
I was so pleased with this credenza. I put it together myself and it took an hour or two (the doors were the hardest part to get 'right'). It is heavy, sturdy, absolutely beautiful and fits in so nicely in my modern studio. The relief on the white upper adds visual interest while the ash bottom gives warmth to the piece. I have already received so many compliments. Cannot go wrong!!
