Field notes
The page lists white oak at $259, walnut at $289, and custom Sherwin-Williams colors at $299. It says orders ship free within the continental U.S. and offers a 30-day fit guarantee, with returns accepted only if the unit is uninstalled. A second product, an in-wall bathroom bin, suggests a small line of built-in home goods rather than a one-product concept.
