I've turned them into behind the sofa tables, and used the cupboard part for books, DVDs . I turned one into a media cabinet for a girl friend, I made it country by making the top a blond pine finish, then i did the came color on large knobs for the cabinet doors, then I painted the rest a Wedgewood blue.

If I could find one at a real good price, this is what I'd do!!
