Corner Tv Cart

Home Source Industries EH 7030 Rolling TV Stand, MahoganyThe TV stand was not packaged very well when shipped. Item was damaged upon arrival. Needs better packaging for shipment.

There were a couple of minor blemishes on it, but kind of expected that for the price. I chose not to put the wheels or cd racks.

I use this tv stand to hold a 32" tv and a vide game console. The stand comes in a low profile box, with all the shelves and components. All the screws and mounting hardware are in a single bag, not organized or separated. The instrunctions are

not impossible to read, but do require some interpretation and visualization of how the tv stand will be put together. I would highly recommend a power screwdriver to put this together. The screw holes are pre-tapped, but it's alot of work to hand screw everything together, which is what I did. A couple things to be aware of: all the shelving was dirty and dusty from the warehouse so I had to wipe it down before assembly. It pays to take your time and visualize how the tv stand will look when it is put together, because it is

possible and easy to make a mistake. Have a power screwdriver handy or be prepared to do some physical work. Also, the holes for the 4 rollers on the bottom weren't pre-tapped deep enough so I had to tap mine with a nail first. This is a manageable assembly for someone with average mechanical aptitude, but for someone who doesn't work with tools this probably would be too much to handle. When it's done it looks very nice in a corner, the wood is a dark brown mahagony color. I thing this item is fairly priced.

WIRE SHELF DIVIDERS - SET OF 8 (FOR WIRE SHELVES)

WIRE SHELF DIVIDERS - SET OF 8I bought these to divide up the space on my long wire shelving to be able to stack clothing higher and prevent the toppled mess. I have the Rubbermaid configurations shelving system. This fits so/so and is a bit wobbly. Since our shelving is the approximate height of the dividers, that provided a bit more stability but it was difficult to fit the divider in this way. Also the way the dividers "hook" on or under the shelves was notcompatible and is wobbly because you can only hook either the front or back sides with the rubbermaid wire shelves. Since there are not many products out here that will divide a wire shelf I've made it work but I probably would not buy these again.

I bought these to organize my closet. The instructions say that you only have to attach the front of the divider to the shelf. I don't know how they expected these to stay in place with that kind of system. However, I was able to stretch the sides a little bit in order to hook the back to the shelves, that way they are more secured. The problem is that I have looked around everywhere and can't find any other dividers. So, these will have to do until something better comes around

***UPDATE****

5/18/2011 piece of @#*% I bought some more thinking that I would do the same and try to adjust them. This time they broke. Going right back with the pieces that broke in a ziplog bag. I have also downgraded the stars from 2 to 1

I purchased the wire shelf dividers for my grand children's closets, the complany failed to describe what diameter the ends would snap on to. Therefore they did not fit their closets, the wire shelf ends were too fat. I was going to send them back when I realized I would have spent the same amount in the return as in the purchase so I decided to keep them because they fit on my wire shelves in my closet. So I had to search for other wire dividers and found them at Lillian Vernon and had to spend a whole lot more then $20.00. End of story I will not buy anything unless it is sent through Amazon itself and with free shipping!

I searched all over the city and online for organizers like this and almost gave up. But one day I searched again and they popped up on Amazon. I love these dividers. They are inexpensive but work great. My sweaters kept sliding all over the shelves ending up in lopsided piles until I got these dividers. They attach easily and stay in place.

I have a standard closet setup. These dividers do not fit in any way, shape or form. Two of the dividers were broken when unpacked. After trying to install, the ends of several of the dividers broke off. They were not mishandled or forced. This is a very shoddy product.

Classroom Keeper 10 Shelf Organizer, Red, (001314)

Classroom Keeper 10 Shelf Organizer, Red,I run a small stationery business out of my home. I needed an inexpensive way to organize reams of paper, and this organizer does the trick! It is heavy duty and I currently have it filled with reams of 80# 100# cover stock. It isn't sagging a bit. I'm ordering a second one since the first one is full. The only way it could be better is if it was plastic instead of cardboard.

I have a full ream of paper on the top shelf and it's only sagging a tiny bit. Feels kind of overprices for what amounts to a cardboard box though.

You can keep a ream of paper in each of the 10 bays, and it will hold up. Sturdy cardboard! You wouldn't think it, getting the box and opening it, but this really works. I only wish there were some other options (e.g. 12 bays or 8 bays), so I could fit my spaces better.

Literally, it's a cardboard box, painted red with a few folded pieces of cardboard fashioned into shelves. Sure, it does what it's supposed to do namely hold light files and papers but I can't quite get over the fact that I paid $30 for what is essentially a colorful shipping box. It would have been more financially prudent to order some inexpensive sundry item a box of paper clips, a pair of dice, hand lotion, anything really and simply use the box that it was shipped in to construct my own set of shelves. Let's face it, Amazon ships tiny little items in enormously oversized boxes anyway, so it would be perfect. Actually, come to think of it, the box that this "shelving unit" shipped in was made of a stronger, denser cardboard than the item itself. In the future, I'm going to attempt to order the shipping box by itself, and save myself around $29.50.

This arrived poorly packaged and all bent up. I put it together anyway, though, and it does work. Although cardboard, it is very strong, and does the job nicely. I do wish they would start to package it better, as it seems to be a pattern after reading other reviews, because it really makes me nervous to purchase another.

2x4 Basics Shelflinks Custom Storage System - 6-pack - Sand

2x4 Basics Shelflinks Custom Storage System - 6-pack - SandBlitz 90126 ShelfLink 6-Pack Sand

This product allows user to build very functional and appealing to the eye garage, storage shed, basement or outdor shelving with as little work, as cutting 2x4s into the lengths needed to erect shelving, firewood stacking bin, kayak or Canoe racking, or even magazine or book Tool stands, well, use your imagination... The Colors available, Black or Sand, allow you to customize the aesthetics of the environment you live in. The Black makes a very Garage, workroom, basement look, whereas the Sand colour blends well with the natural look of Pine or Fir 2x4's and is less noticeable to the eye when used in shelving or brackets, though, these are offered as an option to the basic black bracket, made of ABS type plastic and is more expensive. It should be offered at a more reasonable price. Do you hear me Blitz. It seems the Sand color warrants a significant price increase. This is a very good product.

Wire Shelving, 4 Shelves, 48w X 14d X 48h, Black

Wire Shelving, 4 Shelves, 48w X 14d X 48h, BlackThese are attractive easy to put together shelves. They are just the right size for my space. They are long and hold a lot. You can space the shelves any way you want which is convenient if you want to make the most of your storage and place things of different heights on different shelves. The shelves arrived in excellent shape and seem sturdy.

The shelves came quickly, thank you Amazon, and were in perfect condition. They are much longer than other units I was looking at, 48" long rather than 36", and so for the amount of shelf space you get they are a good buy. The black epoxy finish looks very good and is not likely to rust. I put them together myself in less than 5 minutes.

When I took it out of the box, I noticed that the metal was bent at the corner of two shelves, and the black covering was scraped off several areas. I will still use because its the right size for my use, but it looks like they don't store these carefully.

InterDesign Stackable 1 Soda Bottle Holder for Storage, Clear

InterDesign Stackable 1 Soda Bottle Holder for Storage, ClearKeeps small soda bottles such as Fever-Tree nice and tight in your fridge. But first check HomeGood, TJMaxx, or Marshalls for it. Only $4.99 in those stores.

I love the idea of saving space and organization, but these stackable soda bottles are not very stable when stacked. Placing a bottle in or out of the plastic holder makes the stack move and come apart. I used double-sided tape to make them more stable.

Still feels a bit pricey for what it really is. But, it does the job. Nice stacking option if you have more than one.
