- Available in Acorn or Mahogany.
Be sure to look closely at the measurements, as not everyone has found that the dimensions of the console are right for what they want to store. You should be able to fit around 75 albums inside.
MCM Style
The appearance of this media console is classic MCM. The cabinet is in essence a simple, unadorned rectangle with a hand-rubbed finish. This design keeps the focus on the pleasing geometric form of the console as well as the beautiful texture and finish.
Rather than opening outward, the doors on the front slide to either side to offer you access to the interior. When they are both closed, the two long metal handles are located on either end, the console’s only embellishment.
The console sits on four thin, tapering legs, again classic MCM design. Because the legs are so minimalist, the bulk of the cabinet appears almost to hover weightlessly above.
Uniting Form With Function
Like other Crosley furniture, the Crosley Everett MCM Record Cabinet was built to be both stylish and practical.
Crosley explains, “Sure to be a conversation starter, our console was designed around that most classic of media components, the record player. The heart of the stand is the specially designed turntable compartment. Cleverly tucked into the top of the unit, the record player can be accessed through a hinged lid that remains hidden when not in use.”
In other words, the record player is completely concealed within the unit in such a way as to not increase its bulk or disrupt its elegant form in any fashion. Moreover, accessing it is easy and ergonomic. As for the cords, you can run them through a hole which is pre-cut in back.
Inside the main part of the media console, there is a set of wired dividers which you can use to sort your collection. The console also includes shelves which are adjustable for your needs.
You should note that the shelf on which the record player itself rests it is not adjustable. The other shelves which you can adjust are located on the other side of the unit.
