Winsome Wood Verona Wood 5 Tier Open Cabinet with 4 Beige Folding Fabric Baskets

Winsome Wood Verona Wood 5 Tier Open Cabinet with 4 Beige Folding Fabric BasketsThis is a good quality, sturdy piece of furniture. The assembly wasn't too bad and the coloring is beautiful. It will fit easily behind doors where most other shelves won't.

I had been looking everywhere for some kind of storage unit with 4 bins one for everyone in the family's mittens and hats. This one fits the bill perfectly and is real wood. It is sturdy, looks nice and has plenty of room in the bins. My only complaint is that it was kind of difficult for one person to put together and I'm an expert with IKEA furniture!!! After some struggle, it went together fine and looks better than other units that were $150 or more.

Command Large Shower Caddy with Water-Resistant Strips

Command Large Shower Caddy with Water-Resistant StripsI have used this size and stuck with it...I have one at my bathroom sink

on the mirror, and 3 in the shower. When applied as per directions they stay really well but don't get strips wet when applying and don't use too soon or they fall off.

3M is kind enough to include extra strips. Great Product and probably the least 'tacky-looking' of bathroom caddys...totally easy to remove for cleaning they just slide up off the holder thingie.

Recommended!

We have bumpy tile in our bathroom and I couldn't get any suction cup things to work. Anyhow, the 3M adhesives worked great. I kept all sorts of things in this caddy: shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, you name it! It can handle the weight! :D

I had this in my shower for over two years and it never budged. When I removed it, there was no sign it was ever there. The basket drains well, holds lots of stuff and even has a hook to hang your bath scrubby away from the wall so it can dry.

I needed more space in my shower but I didn't like the ones that hang in front. Chrome types usually leave nasty rust marks so I decided to go with this one after the great reviews. I haven't needed to change the strips yet.

Want Command Large Shower Caddy with Water-Resistant Strips Discount?

I just got this and I followed the directions to a "T". I used the achohol pad, let dry, applied to smooth type tile not on grout lines and I left it 24 hours before putting anything in it.

The next evening I added 1 shamppoo bottle each side, 2 small body wash bottles 6-8 oz one on each side, a bar of soap in the middle. The shamppoo bottles were small to medium size 10-12 oz. ( we use small bottles that we

refill)

When I went to sleep around 2-3am I heard a crash in the bathroom. I just went back to sleep. I knew exactly what it was because I have been using every suction product out there and got used to thuds in the tub. I thought the 3m strips would be different.

I use smaller 3m strip hooks everywhere and love them.

This did come with a set of extra strips so I will give it one more try and update my results here as well

as any correspondence with Amazon or 3m if the product fails the 2nd try.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update

We gave it a second try and filled it with even less stuff but it still fell down within a few hours.

I returned the product.

Moen LR2356DCH Home Care 16-Inch Grab Bar with Shelf

LR2356DBN Moen LR2356DBN Home Care 16-Inch Grab Bar with Shelf, Brushed NickelI purchased and installed 2 of these units in the past month. Excellent quality. Both of my installations were able to be made with mounting screws into wood studs behind the tiled wall. The mounting is solid and looks nice. I used a 5/16" diameter tile drill bit to go through the tile. Then I switched to a 5/16" masonary bit to clear the concrete board behind the tiles. A smaller wood bit was the last step to put a pilot hole in the wood stud. No problem but drilling through tile is nerve wracking--you can't press hard with the drill or you risk breaking the tile and must squirt water with a little spray bottle on the rotating bit to cool it down. I have found that the $10 tile bits (from Lowe's) are only good for drilling about 4 holes then they lose their carbide cutting edges and must be replaced.

I mounted the unit with #12 x 2 inch stainless steel pan head screws using two screws on each end of the bar. Luckily so far I have hit 4 out of 4 wood studs. Using a stud finder above the tile wall (above where the tile meets the drywall) and projecting the stud lines down with a level carefully and double checking several times before making that first hole. If you are using screws into the wood studs you don't have to buy the 1 1/4" tile hole saw to drill a hole for Moen's anchor system mentioned in the instructions. Their anchor system looks nicely designed but I have not had to go that route yet as I have been successful using the stud finder. Remember tiles are brittle and therefore somewhat fragile---don't over tighten mounting screws or over do the drilling speed or pressure on the bit. Moderate all impulses to muscle it.

After a heart attack almost 2 years ago and now a botched middle ear surgery, I find myself unable to balance just walking much less during my in & out shower/bath duties. Seeing this available on Vine I JUMPED at the chance to get this. I admit I need it for balance more than support of my 6'2" 220 pound old body but given the number of times I fall per week, it's importance should not be discounted....As someone who prided himself on big wave surfing, roller blades, ice hockey and WAY too many other sports to mention, having the sudden loss of hearing & balance has been nothing less than traumatic.

This installed easily in my tub/shower fiberglass enclosure. I chose to NOT use the plastic tray since all I needed was a balance support. Since using this for a couple weeks I am almost embarrassed to admit at how much I rely on it already. Growing older is one thing. Losing mobility is another. Losing confidence is literally heartbreaking....So I take this with another notch out of my old pride. But I also do it with a sense of confidence and I suppose that is what this was designed for after all. It does exactly what it is called upon to do. Nothing more, and nothing LESS. Thank you to Moen & to Vine.

Installing this grab bar was the first and, I hope, the last time I ever have to use a ceramic hole saw. The instructions call for using a tile cutting hole saw to wet cut two 1 1/4" holes in the tile of your shower or bath which took me well over an hour to do as I slowly ground them out. I'm sure more experienced cutters would have made shorter work of this, but it was hard for me as a novice. As it turned out, if I had known the geography of my shower wall, I could have made use of a fire break between the studs to get away with just cutting a 1/4" hole with a tile drill on one end. So I ended up using the enclosed anchor for one end of the bar, and angling up with a long wood screw to secure the other end. What you want to avoid is any situation where you drill a large hole for the included anchor without at least 3 inches of head room, that is a no man's land which will lead to a time consuming repair job.

I doubt that anyone frail enough to require a grab bar is going to be able to install this themselves, it was exhausting holding my heavy but long lasting 20V Max Dewalt cordless drill against the wall for so long while keeping the bit wet.

Regardless I tested it with half my body weight (approximately 90 lbs of force) and it flexed just a little so it should hold up to any stress needed for getting up off the shower seat or any gymnastics my monkeys (kids) plan on making use of it. I had thought I might need to put some silicon around the edges, but it seems to be fairly self-sealing in terms of keeping water out of the wall. I'll keep an eye on it.

Mainly, I wanted it as a shelf for my toiletries, and for that it is well designed, my wife can even put her hair clips around the thinner bars holding up the shelf. And I like the ability to take the plastic tray out for cleaning, and that there is room between the shelf and the wall for cleaning the tile.

So, I can recommend this for anyone needing support to get in and out of their shower or bath. It may be too much of a pain to install just for the added shelving, but now that the effort has faded in my memory, I'm very happy with my handiwork and the added convenient place to store my various hygiene products.

This is a grab bar, and as a grab bar, it does its thing and does it well. It looks nice and build quality seems good. Time will have more to say on this issue ....

What is super nice about this particular design is the integration of the shelf. This helps in two distinct ways:

1. The space is used in a practical way

2. Because you use the space, you are training your brain of where to grab and where it is in a spacial orientation way. That way, when and if, you do need to grab the bar in a hurry you know where it is without looking.

So for #2, this is super important and gives you a higher advantage of catching yourself, or at the very least, saving time reaching around for the handle.

It attaches easily. However, if you are not a handy person, have it professionally installed. You don't want this coming out of the wall when you really need it.

Want Moen LR2356DCH Home Care 16-Inch Grab Bar with Shelf Discount?

It is a sturdy bar, and a shelf that could hold a few slender bottles of soaps. The mounting instructions are clear, and it can mount to either studs or a hollow wall (e.g., drywall), but note that you will a 1 1/4 carbide/diamond hole saw bit for your drill, e.g. Bosch HDG114 1 1/4" 32mm Diamond Grit Hole Saw and Bosch HDGQA Diamond Hole Saw Mandrel with AutoStart. Also, keep in mind that a hole saw needs to be kept cool by spraying water on it (e.g., a squirt bottle), so the installation goes best if someone can squirt the saw bit while you drill.

4D Concepts Girl's Storage Bookcase, White

4D Concepts Girl's Storage Bookcase, WhiteJust looking at the bookcase in the stock picture, you can't help but love it. Pink and purple drawers with white shelves is a nice look, and it looks like it can hold quite a bit for the size. I made sure to read over the product details, something that's uncommon around here on Amazon, before I ordered it, but once I got to check this thing out after assembly, I ended up being a bit disappointed with what I got for my money. When the back of this thing cracks right down the middle during assembly, you start to wonder why the manufacturer didn't include a few replacement pieces.

Regarding the storage capabilities of this bookcase, the drawers are the best thing about it, even if they're made of canvas and cardboard. The three little ones hold all my daughter's socks, tights and other smaller clothes perfectly, and like the product details suggest, this would hold games, controllers and handhelds like the DS well too. The two big ones below are roomy and great for pants and pajamas, though they could hold a bunch of figures, dolls and smaller stuffed animals like mini plush Pokemon. It's up to you or your child. I really do like the color on these drawers, as the pink and purple look just like they do in the stock picture, not brighter or darker, and the handles are sturdy for what they are. You can remove the drawers if you want toothey're not fastened in the bookcase with bolts or anything. Also, the bookcase unit is fairly sturdy when you put it together. It doesn't wobble around when you bump into it, and it can hold a smaller tv on top without any worries of collapsing. You can put this thing together in less than 40 minutes.

As for the bookcase itself, it's one of the two big negatives about the product. If you need to know what size books will fit on it, and what won't, look no further than your standard Dr. Seuss book. If you want to put these in the bookcase standing up, they won't fit. Yes, the shelves are too short even for those nice-sized books. Little Golden books stand a chance, as to anything smaller than that, but things like the hardcover Eric Carle books and nearly anything by Maurice Sendak will have to be laid down. It'd be nice if the makers would've made these shelves a little taller since most people have books standing up. The other big problem is what I mentioned earlierthe backing. There is -NOreason why it should be such a flimsy material. I'd send it back if it meant getting a different back to the bookcase and not another identical one.

Still, my daughter loves it, and I expect she'll be lining up all her animal, Gremlins, Pokemon and Ghostbusters toys on the book shelves if we go with something else for books. You could do a lot worse at this price, but you could also do a lot better for slightly more. I'll probably get something else in 2 years or so.

I was a little worried when I purchased this that the quality might not be great because of the price. All other bookshelfs I had looked at were close to $200. But when I received it I was so surprised. It is so cute and looks great in my daughters room. I put it together myself and it only took an hour. It also has little straps you can attach to it to anchor it to the wall to make it more safe. I'm very very happy with this piece and I can't wait to get the tv stand that I ordered that matches it.

Easy to put together, lovely appearance, HOWEVER, the two shelves were not tall enough to hold a book upright. Otherwise BEAUTIFUL!

No doubt this is a smaller bookcase and yes you will likely have to store most books sideways (children's books being all sorts of large and strange shapes/sizes). The interior measurements on the top two shelves after assembly are 8 3/4" high x 11 1/4 deep x 23 3/4 wide--but having read the product dimensions this was what I expected. Assembly itself was easy (took me approximately half an hour) with clear, straight-forward directions and with all pieces clearly marked--which if you've purchased much "put it together yourself" furniture you know is not often the case. This bookshelf is relatively solid and sturdy after assembly, even surprisingly so for such an inexpensive piece. I have purchased similar bookshelves for twice the price from different companies/manufacturers which were much lower quality. The furniture safety straps are a smart inclusion for an item obviously intended for a child's room. It looks very cute in my daughter's room where it is next to her junior height loft bed and is the perfect height to act partially as a nightstand. Overall this is a decent quality and attractive bookshelf at a good price and I am well-pleased with it.

TSM Products Stainless Steel Food Dehydrator with 5 Stainless Steel Shelves

TSM Products Stainless Steel Food Dehydrator with 5 Stainless Steel ShelvesThe most exciting thing to enter my kitchen in a long time is this stainless steel Dehydrator. Most of my raw cookbooks recommend the Excalibur 9 tray, so I got that first. It was too big and too loud for my small house (I have an open floor plan), and frankly, I found Excalibur's customer service to be lacking.

I looked and looked and couldn't find another option until I happened to notice someone talking about the Sausage Maker on a raw foods message board. After some research, I realized TSM and Sausage Maker are one and the same. Sausage Maker originated as a dehydrator for hunters to preserve their game. But raw foodists caught on and started using their dehydrators because of their high quality. TSM realized they had another market demographic and wisely took the sausage logo off the machine.

The unit itself is very good looking. It's well built and has a sexy industrial appearance for the kitchen. It's quiet-very quiet which I didn't think would matter since I like white noise, but if you are going to have something on for 20 hours in a small space, it can be really annoying if it's too loud.

The trays are high quality stainless steel and it has a timer. A timer! This is so helpful when you have something going for many hours and is surprisingly absent from many dehydrators. Their customer service is friendly and helpful, I had to call about the temperature dial--it corresponds to the chart on the top left of the machine, raw foodists will want their knob to stay within that first space on the dial in case anyone else is wondering. Also, be sure to ask for one with a little hole in the door for a thermometer probe if you want to to monitor the temperature (and you probably will).

I'm still in the experimental stage food-wise but I have had great success making crackers and cookies and veggie chips. I give you my utmost recommendation for this model. It's the nicest dehydrator I've ever seen and I've been looking like crazy. If you are embarking on your own raw foods journey or want to upgrade from your current dehydrator, or just need a fabulous gift for the raw foodie in your life, be sure to check this out.

TSM Products Stainless Steel Food Dehydrator with 5 Stainless Steel Shelves

I have recently purchased this dehydrator after looking at reviews for other machines. I must say that I did not expect to have it running almost non-stop. Thinking of new items to dehydrate. I am particualrly fond of the banana chips I give to my pet. She looks at the machine with her mouth watering.

I am happy that I purchased the all stainless steel as over time, it will hold up to hours and days of use. I was a bit surprised at the size even though the dimensions were given. It is larger than a small microwave. Fits nicely under kitchen cabinets. Looks chic with other stainess appliances.

I have searched but have not been able to find a thermometer with a probe to fit in the front cover to monitor the temperatures more closely.

* the 12 hour timer is great

* the temp control has different colored shading no numbers/ it would be good to guesstimate of the internal the temperature as it does not come with an additional thermometer

* the square design makes adding items very easy to do without falling in the middle hole like round units

* 5 trays hold a lot of items

* I wish the small manual had more info in it as some of the other units advertise (a how to begin dehydrating book would be a better draw)

* it does not get as hot as it claims to get on the outside (good thing)

* the stainless sliding up door has cut my finger it is almost like a guillatine (sp?)

* there are no accessories (fruit roll sheet or jerky seasonings or liners) included. It would have been helpful to try to help make a buying decision as I am new to dehydrating.

* the fan sounds similar to an air purifier or small floor fan while running.

I'll update when I have used the unit a bit more.

If you can afford to spend the $$ on the SS shelves, I would definitely do so.

UPDATE FEB 1, 2011

Well,

I must say I haven't grown tired of my new best friend. I noticed it has a steady on switch if you don't want to use the 12 hr timer. Missed that before.

my favorites all without sulfites

watermelon tastes like candy

bananas leathery if you dehydrate for apprx 12 hours/ crunchy if you do 24 hours

mangoes

stone fruits apricots, peaches

pineapple

blueberries

kale chips

sweet potatoes

The unit is very easy on the electric bill minimal change in my monthly bill.

Again, very happy that I purchased the stainless steel shelves. Clean up is a breeze. The fan is mounted in the back so no messy spills get on it. I haven't had to rotate shelves as every shelf appears to get equal heating.

If you are using a food that may have a high sugar content, spray the shelves with Pam and everything comes off easily.

Purchased a jerky gun and seasonings. They are the best I've ever had.

I did decide to give raw a try. There are so many possibilities with food and DESSERTS. It is a bit expensive to start your pantry off about the cost of this dehydrator.

Update April 16, 2012

Well, the dehydrator is the most used appliance in the kitchen in terms of number of hours used. I continue to dehydrate my fruits and kale chips. When making raw soups, they taste a little better when you use the dehydrator to knock the chill off. One of my better appliance investments. Instead of using cooking spay, I use parchment paper now and cleanup is even easier.

Buy TSM Products Stainless Steel Food Dehydrator with 5 Stainless Steel Shelves Now

A stainless steel food dehydrator with free shipping-could I ask for more? No! So I bought it. I wanted a dehydrator that was bpa free so I decided on this one. I was thrilled with I found this-exactly what I was looking for. The Excalibur dehydrator has great reviews but I was unsure of the material they use on their trays and fruit leather mats so I went w/ stainless and am so glad I did.

Pros

It cooks evenly-no need to rotate food/trays

It has a self stop timer so I can go to bed and empty it in the morning

It heats up quickly and the directions are clear for set up.

Things I've learned-if you remove food after the dehydrator is turned off and cool-heat it up for a minute and the food is easier to get off the trays.

Using a paper towel, lightly coat the trays w/ oil if dehydrating things like apples. They will come off a lot easier and the cook time isn't longer -even with the oil.

Look over the trays carefully for pieces of metal that weren't removed from the manufacture. I saw that this was an issue when reading online and was willing to deal w/ it b/c I wanted stainless.

Order The Dehydrator Cookbook if you're new to dehydrating

The only thing I'd change is that I'd buy the larger one. 5 trays is a lot but for the same amount of time and electricity, you can dehydrate so much more!

Next I'm going to make pickle chips:)

Read Best Reviews of TSM Products Stainless Steel Food Dehydrator with 5 Stainless Steel Shelves Here

I lived alone in our cabin in a remote area of Virginia while supervising building of a new house. Had lots of time on my hands to thoroughly research everything I was buying, from bathtub drains to food dehydrators. At least partially because of that, I made lots of good decisions

My TSM dehydrator arrived several months ago, but decided to wait to write review until my 1/2 acre vegetable garden came into full production. My primary goal was to dry tomatoes (I have 65 plants this year). The garden was has been late coming in, but is now in full swing, so I am drying tomatoes like mad!

My first impression of the dehydrator was that it was extremely well made and pretty to look at. My husband, with engineering background and company with large mechanical shop, was very impressed. (I understand that each of these dehydrators is custom made in a shop.)

Had decided to buy stainless steel, first because it appealed to me and, close second, food safety. Didn't want to heat food for hours on plastics. No problem with door edges or noise (see other reviews). Love the sturdy, ventilated trays, food dries evenly. However, because of food odors during dehydration, we decided even before using it for the first time to dehydrate on the back porch. Might not have been a problem inside, but we have room outside and it seemed like a good idea. Works great there.

Because of the few negative comments I had read about this item, called the manufacturer before buying. No problems contacting, excellent information and feedback regarding my questions. Couldn't have been more pleased or satisfied with that contact.

I am so glad that I made the decision to buy this product. Well made, good-looking, solid, does exactly what it is designed to do.

Want TSM Products Stainless Steel Food Dehydrator with 5 Stainless Steel Shelves Discount?

I really like my TSM 5 shelf Dehydrator purchased Nov. 2011!

My Rating: ****

Great little unit for those who do not dehydrate a lot of foods at a time! However, five 16 x 14 racks can hold quite a bit.

Recommendations!

I find it best to have a "level" designated spot for the machine. Once filled, and set, leave it be. Removing the door lets the heat escape; so, you may not wish to do it, while dehydrating. Moving the unit, while the heating element is red hot can cause damage to your unit. Hot things tend to break more easily.

I suggest filling your machine up!

Dehydrating requires the same energy, whether you fill one rack, or all five.

Also, use parchment paper for those items that tend to stick!

Or, order Frogmats.

First Complaint!

You may wish to plan on using a calibrated 12" temp gauge, as TSM's temperature dial is a little tricky to set. Anything shorter may not give you an accurate reading. Or, better yet, take a look at Maverick Industry's wireless remote systems. The gauge-probe inserts through a small hole in the front door panel. I do find the thermometer often snags on whatever is inside.

Second Complaint!

The rear SS panel, supporting the motor tends to vibrate-rattle when the unit is on. TSM should have used a heavier gauge SS for the rear. I found the noise so annoying, I reinforced the motor bracket with a piece of flat steel.

Yes, I'd purchased this product again! Order it!

You will be glad you did!

Good luck!

Ameriwood Over The Toilet Cabinet

Ameriwood Over The Toilet CabinetComplete piece of crap. Took an hour to assemble, put it against hte wall. The legs folded like a house of cards the whole unit collapsed ripping the tiny leg pins out of the cheap press board. Injuring me and my cat. Cant fix it now and cant return it.

We just purchased two of these for our new place. They have a good amount of space and the one we set up is holding a lot of stuff. One of the things we didn't like is that it didn't mention needing a wall anchor, which was a primary reason we purchased it (our wall is stone and would take a lot to drill into). However, it was the last step. The product is staying up but sways when we open it. Also, the directions were unclear about which way to place some of the boards and it wound up being upside down. We would have had to undo most of the work to fix it. Overall it looks nice and holds a good amount of products for the cost.

I like this cabinet, except for the color. I'd been looking for a cabinet in black for a long time, and then I saw this cabinet advertised as "black". It's not black, it's espresso!! All of the mirrors in my bathroom are framed in black, so this doesn't exactly match, but I put it up until I can find a black one. For the price it's a good buy, just beware of the color.

Want Ameriwood Over The Toilet Cabinet Discount?

We were going to order three of these for all three of our bathrooms, but I am glad I hesitated. The first reason I dislike is that after it was all assembled, I noticed the edges of each piece was already looking worn, so the finish is not good, and rather cheap. Second, as my husband was putting the item in place behind the toilet, he realized the bottom cross bar that you can see in the picture, and the piece that stabilizes the unit, does not fit our bathroom! The reason this bottom piece does not fit is because the water pipe and shut-off are right in the middle. Our work-around was to take a saw and cut out a notch to go around the water pipe, not idea, but okay. After all of this trouble, we decided it didn't match our vanity and we'd use it in another bathroom that is just a toilet room. Well....it turns out this other bathroom's water pipe and shut off is in yet another spot, and the modified cross-bar won't work, yet again. A simple solution would be for the manufacturer to have accounted for an average of height from floor to pipe, and locate the cross-bar higher. In the end, it is sitting in pieces for now in my closet. It's too much of a hassle to disassemble and box up for return, so we'll continue to jerry-rig it to work. I would not recommend.

Seville Classics 168-Bottle 7-Shelf Wine Rack

Seville Classics 168-Bottle 7-Shelf Wine Rack, ChromeI'm just starting my cellar and I've only owned this wine rack for two months but I couldn't be happier. The full capacity requires stacking 3-high, but I bought 3 additional shelves from the manufacturer to reduce space between shelves and stack less high. With the 10 shelves total, I can fit 90 bottles without stacking, but I like to stack two-high for wines I have multiples of. The ten shelves, if stacked two high now give me (9 + 8) x 10 = 170 bottle capacity, and even more (177 total) since I can squeeze a three-high stack on my bottom shelf.

Unless you're much taller than me (at 5'9") don't plan on browsing wines too easily on the top shelf. This is, however, a spot for stacking a couple of cases of your favorite cab (grab & go).

I was so pleased with the engineering of these units I purchased half a dozen shelving units from the same manufacturer. One of them will sit aside this rack for storing wooden cases.

As my cellar grows, I'll surely add another of these wine racks to the mix as well. I can't speak for the test of time, and how these will hold up against rust in a basement, but my though was that is would be reasonably hypo-alergenic, even if rust does develop.

I've had this wine rack for 3 months and love it, i don't have it filled to capacity but upon assembly, easily concluded that bottles can be stacked 3 tall per shelf, 1 row of 9 one row of 8 and 1 row of 7, total 24 per shelf, x 7 shelves = 168. Hopefully this cleared up the math for the previous reviewer. It also holds the really large bottles. I am very happy with it Extremely sturdy.

Buy Seville Classics 168-Bottle 7-Shelf Wine Rack Now

I've been looking for a reasonably priced wine rack for a couple months. I've tried some of the pine wooden racks but they tend to be too flimsy when loaded. I currently store approximately 100 bottles on this rack, and it works great.

Well made, solid, gives you the opportunity to use it as two short racks or one taller one. Comes with attachments to secure the rack to a wall if desired although probably not needed if placed on level surface. I like that fact you can adjust shelf height to accommodate more bottles on the bottom to better weight distribution. This rack will also handle odd sized bottles much better than racks with squares.

All in all a great price for a quality wine rack.

Quick - Shelf Hangers Six Shelf 12" Deep Wall Mount Shelving Unit

Quick - Shelf Hangers Six Shelf 12' Deep Wall Mount Shelving UnitI was a bit skeptical to order such inexpensive shelves for my garage, but decided to give Quick-Shelf shelves a try. I can't believe how sturdy, easy to install, and inexpensive they are. It's ridiculous how this company is not sold in every home improvement store. They are not designed to be designer "sexy" looking shelves, but they actually look really cool in the garagealmost like floating boards. It's amazing how much weight they can handle. I strongly recommend these, and the other Quick-Shelf shelves for your garage, attic, closet, basement, etc... as I have now ordered 5 sets in varying sizes for multiple rooms in my home... and will undoubtedly order more as my storage needs grow over time. Just make sure you have the necessary tools when installing these and the ceiling mount ones. I would recommend: a stud finder (just a cheap one will work), cordless or corded drill with a 3/16" drill bit, a phillips head bit for the drill, a 5/16" socket for the drill (for installing the lag screws) or just a crescent wrench will work, a tape measure and a level. Quality construction, made in America, easy, inexpensive... what more do you need?

This is a great garage type shelf unit. I keep scrap wood trim on mine and the pcs don't fall aff cuz of the wire sides. They don't come with instructions so you kinda have to guess as to how it is suppposed to go. Not too complicated tho'

This was exactly what it was advertised as, a collection of brackets and fasteners to allow you to hang shelves (not included) that are 12" deep and as wide as you like.

Be advised that a level is basically required in order to properly install the shelving brackets (I used a laser level from the first hole I drilled). The strength of this unit is its flexibility; I installed it in a small bar closet only 24" wide that was partially taken up by some plumbing. I highly recommend securing it to the wall at intervals (not just at the top where it hangs) to avoid swaying when you take things off and put them on.

It took all of ten mins to drill the holes ,install the eyehooks and hang the brackets together. I use this for clothes instead of a dresser to save on floor space, man its simple easy and cool looking for an industrial loft. It came packed smartly, cut the ties ,drill your holes and hang the brackets. I called my local home improvement warehouse ordered pine cut at 5 ft lengths as per the instructions, picked it up and presto it was up and holding clothes. I love this thing!!!

InterMETRO Hanging Pot Rack

InterMETRO Hanging Pot RackI just bought and received this item.. First it was priced reasonable and I was afraid it would be poorly constructed. I could not have been more wrong. It is one item that looks as though I would have easily have paid twice the amount for it. It is a wonderful addition to my small kitchen or anyone elses, for that matter. It also arrived one day before scheduled. I wish I had space for two of them!

Very well made. Easy to hang. The only problem is that I requested black and recieved chrome. But looks great anyway.

Leo Shelving Collection

Winsome Wood Shelf, EspressoI didn't have any of the problems that others have reported. The finish on all the wood was even and without blemish. It was very easy to put them together. I'm actually using them as end tables on either side of my couch. They are a bit taller than my couch, but that actually works out perfectly for reading lamps. They are very sturdy and stable. I also ordered a matching bookcase and couldn't be happier with all three pieces. I would definitely purchase this product again.

This arrived quickly and was really easy to assemble. I needed a short, little shelf for a small bathroom and this really did the trick. The only problem is that the pieces don't all fit together flush. There are very small gaps where some of the pieces meet, but it doesn't bother me too much.

Was pleasantly surprised that the quality was quite decent and it was wood! Only disappointment was that the top was slightly warped, so a front corner couldn't and didn't snug down as tightly as could/should have. I'd buy more and again, as long as it was through Amazon and free shipping. Arrived quickly.

I wanted a small book shelf as I don't have a lot of books. This one was perfect for the small space I have available. It arrived in good condition, was packaged nicely, and was very easy to assemble. All of the holes matched up, etc. It seems to be very sturdy and it sits level on the floor.

The on-line photos make this item look almost brownish but I know that Espresso is almost black which is why I bought it. It matches very nicely with the other items I've purchased from Winsome in both color and quality. It was well worth the low price.

I use this in my apartment bedroom to hold snacks and water and it works wonderfully. It was very easy to set up, I believe about 5-10 minutes for me. Everything came well packed and nothing was broken upon arrival. It seems like a pretty well built product and has had no issues for me since I bought it. I've had it around 6 months now.
