10 times he regretted that he obeyed the furniture maker and did not install the cabinet in the hallway on the legs

This publication I want to warn against my mistakes, for which I now pay with spoiled furniture.

The beginning of the story

The first time they ordered ready-made furniture for the kitchen, which he assembled himself under the happy smile of his wife. This new thing in the period of total lack of money and, of course, cheap from laminated chipboard. I don't remember how long I served, but the kitchen is not the best place for such material. Eventually Chipboard “grabbed” moisture, swelled and collapsed.

Time passed and after the renovation, they took the kitchen already on order also laminated chipboard and MDF inserts, but for this since the tabletop was of better quality, all joints of possible moisture ingress were treated with silicone sealant.

Insisted that the cabinets be set high (relatively) legs, and not hidden by decorative panels, as suggested by the master. Bottom line, everything is fine

still serves, only my wife wants a different kitchen, but more on that next time.

Rake

But in the manufacture and installation of the cabinet in the hallway, I became faint-hearted and allowed himself to be persuaded to give up legs, and put the cabinet on special silicone inserts.

They inspired confidence in me, but not chipboard, he cannot be fooled!

Result

The cabinet from the side of the refrigerator "took" moisture and began to collapse, if it stood on its legs, this did not happen.

Conclusion, even if you bought the cheapest furniture, do not be lazy and install it on the legs, then it will last a long time.
