Quick Verdict
This cabinet is beautiful and way more functional than it looks at first glance. The built-in plug, USB-C port, and LED lighting with a remote take it beyond a basic storage piece, and the magnetic closures on every cabinet door are something I absolutely love. Full disclosure though: my husband spent close to 3 hours assembling it, so go in with your eyes open on that part.
Buy if you:
- Want to set up a dedicated coffee bar with power right there on the countertop
- Need tall storage in a kitchen, dining room, or living room without sacrificing style
- Love magnetic closures that keep cabinet doors from flapping open
- Want adjustable shelving that can hold jars, spices, and all sorts of different-sized items
Skip if you:
- The pull-out tray isn’t a drawer and won’t hold heavy weight, if you need actual drawer storage for heavy items, this tray will disappoint you
- Assembly takes nearly 3 hours even with clear instructions; not ideal if you need it set up same day
- You need more than 31.4 inches of width in a storage piece, this one is narrower than it looks on camera

A Kitchen Cabinet That’s Also a Charging Station
When it arrived, I expected a standard tall cabinet with some shelves—then I spotted the built-in plug, USB-C port, and LED lighting. They’re calling it a kitchen pantry, and I understand why, because once you see everything it has, it would be a perfect fit in your kitchen. But literally you can use it anywhere that you see fit in your home. When it arrived, I figured it would be a standard tall cabinet with some shelves. Then I got to the countertop area and spotted the built-in plug, the USB-C port, and the LED lighting with a remote. That changes the whole pitch. You can check the current price and availability here on Amazon.
This is the oak colorway, and it looks absolutely beautiful in person. The finish is warm and farmhouse-adjacent without being too rustic or too modern. It sits at 72.2 inches tall, 31.4 inches long, and 15.7 inches wide. So it’s a tall, narrow-ish footprint that tucks in without eating up floor space, which is exactly what most kitchens actually need.
What You’re Getting: Storage Layout and Specs
Let me walk through the layout from top to bottom, because there’s more going on here than a first glance suggests. At the top, there are two upper cabinets, and I absolutely love both of them. Each one has a little rack underneath the shelf inside, perfect for hanging dish towels, utensils, or even some of your knives. That’s a feature I don’t see on a lot of cabinets at this price point and I think it’s really great.
Below those upper cabinets, you hit the countertop section. This is where things get interesting. There’s a built-in plug with two standard outlets and a USB-C port, so you can run a coffee machine, plug in your phone, whatever you need. Right above that area, there’s also the LED light strip that illuminates the shelving unit. It comes with a remote. You can adjust the brightness, switch it on or off, and there’s even a timer built in, which I think is really great for setting the mood or making sure the lights don’t stay on all night.
Then there’s a pull-out tray just below the countertop. And the bottom section has two more cabinet doors with magnetic closures and adjustable shelving inside. I love any kind of cabinet with the magnet, so you know that they’re not going to flap open. The whole piece comes in oak, and it does come in a couple of other colors as well. The countertop itself supports up to 300 pounds, so it’s more than capable of holding appliances.
Coffee Bar Setup, LED Remote, and the Pull-Out Tray
The built-in plug is where this cabinet separates itself from every other tall storage piece I’ve seen at this size. Let’s say you wanted to turn this into a coffee bar. You can put your coffee machine right there on the countertop, plug it in, and not have to run a cord across the kitchen. That’s a real quality-of-life thing, and I think it’s great that this is already built into the design rather than being an afterthought.
The LED light strips are a nice touch too. I turned them on with the remote and the countertop area lit up really nicely. You can adjust the brightness up or down, and the timer feature means you don’t have to think about turning it off before bed. I just think that’s kind of like a cute little neat feature that makes the whole piece feel more intentional.
The pull-out tray is somewhere between a ledge and a prep surface. I reached for it in the wrong spot at first before figuring out where to grab it. Once it’s out, it’s a useful little staging area, I can see pulling it out while you’re making your coffee, setting your mug on it while you grab the creamer from the cabinet. It’s not something that’s going to hold a ton of weight. You don’t want to pile stuff on here. And it’s also not a drawer, so you’re not storing anything inside it. It’s just kind of in that moment. For what it is, I think it’s a cute little feature.
The bottom cabinets open with that same magnetic closure system, and the shelves inside are adjustable to fit different-sized items. Whether you’re storing pantry staples, small appliances, or dining accessories, you have real flexibility in how you configure the space.
The Assembly Reality Check
Full disclosure: this took my husband almost 3 hours to put together. That’s not a knock on the product, the instructions are very clear, everything is numbered, and they include all the hardware you need. When you’re putting a large piece like this together, you do want to take your time. He wasn’t rushing. He was being careful and making sure every piece was right. And as you can see, he did. It looks absolutely beautiful.
But here’s the friction point that’s worth knowing before you order: the pull-out tray is not obvious to grab on first use. I reached for the wrong spot before I figured out the right grip point. It’s a small thing, but if the tray handle isn’t clearly marked or intuitive, you end up fiddling with it a bit before it slides out smoothly. Once you know where to grab, it’s fine. But don’t expect it to be self-explanatory on day one.
The cabinet also ships in two separate boxes, so make sure both arrive before you start. Everything you need for wall attachment, including the anti-tip straps, is included in the bottom drawer, along with any extra hardware for securing the back panel. They’ve thought through the safety side of a 72-inch piece, which I appreciate.

Where This Cabinet Makes the Most Sense
Kitchens are the obvious fit, and the coffee bar setup I keep mentioning is the strongest use case. You’ve got a plug for the machine, the USB-C for your phone while you’re getting your morning going, LED lighting that makes the whole area feel intentional, and cabinet space above for your mugs, jars, and spices. The little racks underneath the upper shelves are perfect for hanging a dish towel or a few utensils, and that kind of detail matters in a busy kitchen.
But I keep coming back to the fact that you can use it anywhere. A dining room where you need a buffet-style setup with extra storage. A home office corner where you want to stash supplies but also need to charge devices. A living room wall where you want organized storage that doesn’t look like a pile of bins. The 72.2-inch height makes it a real presence in a room, so you want to think about ceiling height and whether you have wall space to use the anti-tip strap properly.
The oak finish is warm enough to work in traditional and modern-farmhouse spaces. And since it comes in a couple of other colors as well, you’re not locked into one look. The 31.4-inch width means it’s not a wide piece, which is actually an advantage in tighter spaces where a full sideboard would be too much.
Before You Unbox the Second Box
A few things that will make your experience smoother. First: make sure both boxes are present before you start. The piece ships in two separate packages and you need parts from both to complete the assembly. Starting with just one box will leave you stalled mid-build.
The wall attachment hardware and anti-tip straps are in the bottom drawer area of the assembled unit, which means you’ll find them during the build process, not before. Set them aside and don’t mistake them for spare parts. At 72 inches tall, wall-anchoring isn’t optional if you have kids or pets in the house.
The instructions are very clear and everything is numbered, so don’t skip steps to try to move faster. My husband took his time and the finished result looked absolutely beautiful. Rushing a piece this tall is how you end up with a wobble or a misaligned door. Give yourself a few hours on a weekend and it’ll pay off.
And the pull-out tray, reach for it from the front edge, not from the top. You’ll know what I mean when you get there. Once you’ve found the right grip point, it slides cleanly. You can check the current price and what’s in stock here before you add it to your cart.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the built-in charging station require any special wiring or installation?
No, you just plug the cabinet’s power cord into a standard wall outlet and the countertop’s built-in outlets and USB-C port are ready to use. There’s no hardwiring involved. Just make sure your wall outlet is within reach of the cabinet’s cord once it’s positioned where you want it.
Can the shelves inside the cabinets be adjusted to different heights?
Yes, the shelves are adjustable so you can reconfigure the spacing to fit taller jars, small appliances, or whatever you’re storing. This is one of the more practical details on a piece like this, especially if your storage needs change over time.
Is the LED light remote included, or do you have to buy it separately?
The remote comes included. It controls the LED strip brightness and has a timer function built in, so you don’t need to source anything extra to use the lighting as intended right out of the box.
Do the anti-tip straps actually attach to the wall, and is the hardware included?
Yes, the anti-tip straps are designed to anchor to the wall, and all the hardware you need to do that is included inside the cabinet during assembly. It’s not a complicated attachment, but for a piece that stands over 72 inches tall, using them is strongly recommended if there are children or pets in your home.
What’s the weight capacity of the pull-out tray?
The pull-out tray isn’t designed to hold a lot of weight. It’s more of a temporary staging surface than a load-bearing shelf. Don’t pile things on it or use it as a prep surface for heavy items. The countertop above it, by contrast, supports up to 300 pounds, so that’s where you want your appliances.
Does the cabinet come fully assembled or does everything need to be put together?
Everything needs to be assembled from scratch. It ships in two separate boxes and every piece is individual and numbered. The instructions are clear, but budget close to 3 hours for the build if you’re being careful and doing it right.
