"Garbage" 2010-05-18
By Mark R. Schmidt
As another rater said "the picture on the box for this product is false advertising. When you open the product you will discover that the backing for the cubes is flimsy cardboard AND the cardboard pieces are folded in half so you get a crappy seam right down the center." It also wobbles when you put it together, not a sturdy piece at all. I got it at target on sale, for 39.99 not worth a penny, I am taking it back after all that assembly. I won't be buying anymore products from closetmaid.


"Piece of JUNK!" 2010-05-17

the picture on the box for this product is false advertising. When you open the product you will discover that the backing for the cubes is flimsy cardboard AND the cardboard pieces are folded in half so you get a crappy seam right down the center. If tacky cheapness doesn't bother you then go for it. I also found that it did not assemble very nicely either, had gaps and unevenness. It's definitely not worth the $$$ in my opinion. The company that manufactures this product should be ashamed of itself. I returned it and found a similar product that is MUCH better than this one (brand name is Home Essentials).


"Easy enough that a 7 year old can put it together." 2010-03-31
By Susan Fredette (HEBRON, CT, US)
It was easy to put together and is sturdy. My son was even able to help put it together. The only issue was that shipping was as expensive as the piece.

  
"Great shelf, going back to buy a second" 2010-02-23
By Kishme (Santa Cruz, CA)
I don't write many reviews but I was delighted by this shelf and it well exceeded my expectations.

You won't get it together in "only minutes" (alone, took just under an hour) but the final product is really nice and elegant for the price. Higher quality than expected, just don't expect the moon. It's sturdy. The fabric totes are cheap and cute and an easy way to express your style or personalize your shelf. The totes themselves are somewhat stiff fabric and also studier than expected.

Some reviews said screws in the finished product are left exposed but I think that has been corrected as my unit came with screw covers. I think the whole thing finishes quite nicely. A little tap of the hammer gets the cover even with the wood. Also there were no holes left exposed from optional dollies, there were matching dolly-hole stoppers included. I had no issues with drill holes absent, all of mine were present.


My very basic little electric screwdriver did the job just fine, but it says you can use a regular screwdriver if you don't have a drill.


I absolutely recommend this product to someone looking for storage or organization on a budget, I found the lowest price at my Target store, and the bins were cheap too.


"Easy to assemble and looks nice--skip the backing!" 2010-02-06
By C. Lengel (Garrison, NY)
I put two of these together in less than an hour with nothing more than a Phillips screwdriver. They look great and are sturdy. The backing pieces are less attractive (basically, folded cardboard), but I wasn't planning to use them anyway. I recommend that you save a lot of time and trouble--and get a more handsome shelf--by omitting the backing. We're using these as a bookshelf and drawer-storage unit in my daughter's room, and she is thrilled with the way they look. The fabric drawers (available in many colors) look terrific, fit like a glove, and hold a ton of stuff!
