Howard Miller 680-395 Bradington Curio Cabinet Review

Howard Miller 680-395 Bradington Curio CabinetDouble-check your measurements, this is a large piece of furniture! I bought it as a trophy case for the basement and it clears the ceiling by about four inches.

The first thing you'll notice is that it arrives in a very large box, fully assembled (except for the interior shelves). It arrived via freight 3 days after I purchased it on Amazon. The driver did help me slide it into the entryway, but it doesn't fit upright under standard entry doors, so you have to put it on it's side and/or get creative about getting it in the house. At 180 pounds, it required three people and a dolly in order to move it and oh-so-carefully slide it down the basement stairs. The box it comes in is super heavy-duty cardboard and protects the cabinet well. While you have help, and before you position the cabinet upright, get the glass shelves out of the bottom of the cabinet (they're packed in a slot in the rear) and get the bag of shelf brackets from the top. There's also a anti-tip strap that I haven't installed yet but honestly, it looks a little chintzy for a cabinet of this size, so I might look for another solution.

It has only been set up for a day but seems to be very high quality - it's very sturdy, has adjustable feet, and a nice bright light. It comes with four shelves. There is no built-in divider (glass or otherwise) between the top and bottom of half of the cabinet, but there are built-in shelf supports there, suggesting that you really need to put one of the shelves in that position. This leaves the other three shelves for the adjustable areas in the top and bottom of the cabinet, as shown in the product photo - two up and one down, so for lots of little objects, there probably aren't enough shelves, but for larger objects/trophies, it's perfect. The curved glass is gorgeous and in the dark stained wood, it's the most contemporary design I've seen in a curio cabinet. There is no way I could beat the price on Amazon - it looks much more expensive than it was, and there was nothing even close to this level of quality available at the Swedish store.
