Rubbermaid 7083 Four-Shelf Double-Door Resin Storage Cabinet

23-Jan-09

Home Furniture

This is the perfect system to use for garage storage, where wooden or metal cabinets would be likely to get dinged by yard tools, cars, and so on.

The cabinet is easy to assemble-you don’t need tools to do it, though a soft mallet may be helpful. As you expect with Rubbermaid products, the cabinet is almost indestructible. The one complaint I had is that when I put mine together in my basement the unevenness of the floor caused a slight misalignment of the doors. This was easily corrected with a shim placed under the front edge.

Notable plusses include lightweight construction that makes relocating the cabinets easy and an amazingly small footprint for what it can hold. If you intend to store toxic items, you may want to consider ordering a set of locks from the manufacturer.

Looking for affordable storage for your basement or garage? This is the unit for you.

This is the best storage product I have ever bought. It took only 15 minutes to assemble this unit without tools. It fits neatly along the wall and you can pack a lot of stuff in it. The shelves are very sturdy and can hold heavy items without bending. It’s easy to open and I would definitely buy more from this vendor. They came earlier than expected and they were exactly as advertised. I wish they came in more colors.

Light and easy to work with. Can be put together in a few minutes. Takes longer to read the directions then to do the work. Can be pulled down and moved easily and can be configured in different ways. The only shelving I will buy now. Plus the price is much less then any other shelving of the same size.

I have it on my deck right next to the hot tub. I put a DVD player and a LCD monitor inside, along with the chemical for the hot tub. It has gone through hot sun, rain storm, and snow. Pretty much weather proof. It has a little latch at the bottom to keep the door close. Great product!

I bought these shelves for extra storage in the laundry room. The shelves are EXTREMELY easy to put together. (Make sure you tap down the shelves so they are level and secure. No tools necessary.) The unit is very sturdy. I was able to organize and store my items, and I still have room for more stuff! I highly recommend this shelving unit! I got 10% off and free shipping to the door from Amazon…great deal!

I put this on my small patio, and it is great! It will not hold a large amount of items, but will hold many small items, for example, you could fit a 50 ft. hose, watering can and a couple chair pads, and some rope. It is so simple to put together, a couple quick snaps and your done! No nuts or bolts, but sturdy enough to hold my 245 lbs. husband! I actually bought this at a local Target store, and this is the best price.
