Mostly OK, a few flaws
Ok, this mostly does what is required, but when they say thin, they aren't kidding. I bought these to hold 2 bleeding control kits, and they do so adequately, but I have some small gripes. The first thing is that there are two ways to mount the handle due to the screw spacing, so I ended up having to flip one so they would match. This is important because my original intent was to mount one left-open and one right-open. I should have been able to do that since the "Bleeding control kit" sticker was separate. But there is also a "Rescue Essentials" sticker that is not shown in the advertisement already affixed and would have made a mess and looked awful had I continued to try to peel it. So, I was locked in to one orientation for aesthetics. My second issue with these cabinets is structural. The door hinge is attached with the cheapest Chinese aluminum rivets I have ever seen and one pulled out the first time I opened the door. If these are ever needed in an emergency, I fully expect to be repairing the doors after their first usage. This is a $40 cabinet being sold for almost $95. Normally medical stuff is more expensive because it's higher quality. This is not.
