Help finding a certain type of cabinet

I hope I'm posting this in the right section ..

I'm after a cabinet quite similar to this http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/90144730 , but not quite as wide, but can't seem to find one. Any suggestions?

May want to try the Furniture forum. You could have a local carpenter make your cabinet to specific size if you can't find a ready made one.

Sorry I didn't realise there was a furniture section, thanks to whoever moved it

I *may* be able to make do with the one I posted in the link above, but ideally I'd like a smaller version of it. Looking at the price, £29.90, how sturdy is that likely to be?

I bought a small cabinet for CD/DVD storage from Argos a few years back for something like £15 and you're only to touch the top of it and it'll sway from side to side

Re: Help finding a certain type of cabinet

Are you putting a TV on top or is this for storage only? How big is your TV or more importantly how heavy?

No, my TV's on the wall. It'll be used for storage only (Sky HD box, PS3 & DVD player)
