Q1. What's the difference between Metro and Classic?

Metro Comic Cubes and Condos are made of 3/4-inch-thick chipboard panels with a melamine resin laminate on all surfaces. The panel material is highly resistant to moisture, wear, and scuffing.

Classic Comic Cubes and Condos are are made using furniture grade plywood with real wood veneer and are available in cherry, oak, and maple. Classic Comic Condos are finished with Sherwin Williams white water conversion varnish. It is extremely durable and water resistant.

Both Metro and Classic feature drawers made of 1/2-inch-thick, plywood, a high-grade plywood preferred by cabinetmakers because of its stability, consistent quality, and attractive appearance.

Q4. What's a CGC Cube or Condo?
