"Looks great, but make sure you PLAN IT OUT!" 2010-01-26
By SteveO (NW Indiana)
The pieces for this set are pretty basic.


3 long pieces (either 48" each or 60" each)


3 2' shelves


4 contoured support brackets


9 or so spacers for the hanging rods



4 6' trim pieces


Tons of hardware (screws, anchors, brackets, etc.)

You really need a good trim saw, or a table saw...I can't imagine cutting the shelves with a hand saw...

It took me a while to "lay out", and design my own little customized piece. I think that I started sawing a little too early, and didn't think to make the shelf on top long enough to be one of the "stacking shelves". But it all worked out in the end...Fortunately, there is plenty of "dummy room" with the brackets in that if you cut a shelf too short by an inch, the bracket will cover for you. I had a hard time with some of the screws and brackets that were to support the shelves. If you wiggled the shelf around trying to get it in to the right spot it "crunched" the wood...Once I got going though, it really came together quickly, and looks great as a final product...Wife is very happy with results...I have tons of hardware left as I used much longer screws to really drive it in to the studs for years of use...Do get some spackle though, because leftover damage from removed wire shelving left nice big holes.


"good looking closet system" 2009-12-23
By J. Tam (Capitola, CA United States)
I bought this because it was fairly inexpensive and looks good. After all said and done, it was nice, fairly simple to put together, but there were a lot of pieces left over and I'm left feeling like I paid a bit more than I should have. I have a 6' wide closet. It's made for closets that are up to 8' wide. Maybe they should sell them for 4', 6' and 8' systems separately. I now have several long pieces of wood, shelving and tons of hardware that I don't need, so it's a bit of a waste.


Ok, that was my big criticism. Otherwise, it looks very elegant, is sturdy (as long as I installed it correctly!) and I would recommend it.

  
"I love this item, looks great, very cheap price, bought two of these" 2009-11-01
By K. Price
I love this closet, looks good, cheap cost, a little hard to install but just read the directions twice like I did, then it was real easy, I didn,t use any of the suggested plans I made my own might be why it took me longer to install

  
"work on quality control" 2009-09-12
By evaluna
I received this and unfortunately the box was a bit banged up and this resulted in some dents and scratches in the wood. It was too much work to pack it back up to return it, so I'm keeping it. Also a chunk was missing from one of the wood clothes rails, looked like maybe a knot of wood had fallen out. Otherwise the parts look to be sturdy. Make sure your closet is not bigger than 10 feet if you don't want to make adjustments to the system. I do wish Amazon would provide a partial credit, for items that are damaged, but usable and too cumbersome to repack and send back.

  
"Too complicated" 2009-04-14
By Tiana M. McElroy
I was looking for something fairly easy that my husband and I could install ourselves. Halfway through the installation process, I found myself wishing that we had hired a professional instead. Nice product, but installation should be left to the professionals.

"Rubbermaid classic custom closet" 2010-02-11
By D. Wells
Used this in our coat closet. Great addition to the closet. Took an afternoon to put in. Well worth the effort, I am extremely happy with it.


"Solid!" 2010-01-18
By J. Lee
These have been pretty solid for me so far. I am concerned about having too much weight on the racks, and having to have used some plastic anchors in certain places. But then again, I don't intend on putting heavy-bins up anytime soon. It is a bit tricky marking out where to initially install the rails, but once they are all in place, it's easy to configure/reconfigure the closet setup. Just last night my fiance and I re-did things to make it more efficient for us. One 'quirk' I ran into, and maybe this is in the instructions and I just forgot, but it seems you can't install the racks at the *highest* level of the rail (the one notch-hole at the top won't seem to allow the rack to fit in...) Not a big deal though.


Anyway, I am a bit hesitant about the weight load, once my fiance puts all her clothes in. That would suck to have it come all crashing down :(

One piece of advice, and I guess this would make sense for installing anything that would carry a heavier weight load: don't depend *too* much on those wall anchors and try to find the STUD!


"Love my closet now." 2009-12-13
By B. Huber (USA)
I organized my closet with 3 of the Rubbermaid kits. This was one of the big ones that filled an 8 foot wall. These are so easy to install and easy to customize to my needs. The price is right and shipping is quick.


"Great closet system" 2009-12-09
By Chris Wilson
I got this closet system to replace the 2 hanging vars that ere in there. It is great. There are numerous configurations that you can choose from to suit your needs best. There are also extra shelves that you can purchase for shoes, ties, etc. A great product.


"Great value, easy installation" 2009-12-08
By J. Baker (Baltimore, MD)
This product offers versatility at a reasonable price. Excluding the removal of my existing closet shelf and bar, this project took only a couple of hours and could mostly be completed alone. I am very pleased with this system and would definitely purchase again for other closets.
