AGR Series Audio Video Rack w Beveled Glass Shelves (Black)
Quality of glass.
Easy of assembly.
Appearance of stand for a glass stand this product suits a true audiophile.
Dislikes -
Top shelf has silver caps "glued" to bottom, however these caps are far to easily dislocated from the top shelf.
Overall I really like the unit and would certainly buy again, perhaps next time a silver with blackened glass shelves.

ClosetMaid 24-Inch Wide Laminate Pantry Cabinet
The Good:
Very easy to assembly (accept the doors...) It job should take between 30-40 minutes
Nice finishing touches that you'd expect from Closetmaid (like covers for the exposed fasteners and a good bracket to secure the unit to the wall)
The Bad & the Ugly:
The doors leave a 3/4 of an inch gap down the middle. I thought I put the thing together wrong it looked so bad!
I corrected their bad design by putting two thin washers between the hinge and the side and replacing their screws with some slightly longer ones. I was really annoyed that a 30 min job turned into a couple hours of realizing I didn't mess the thing up, working out a solution, and rooting around for the right parts.
When assembling the doors, it was hard to support and screw them in a the same time. I used a couple of boxes to prop the door up while I screwed in the hinges.this cabinet is sturdy and easy to assemble. but my main complaint is that there is about a 3/4 inch gap between the two doors which sorta defeats my purpose of having a clean linen closet as bugs could easily fly/crawl in the gap.

Overall it seems like a pretty good budget pantry. Took about an hour to assemble but it's real sturdy with lots of room. No complaints, was exactly what I was looking for.Read Best Reviews of ClosetMaid 24-Inch Wide Laminate Pantry Cabinet Here
My biggest and only issue with this cabinet is that the cabinet doors do not meet in the middle. There is a gap of almost half an inch that exposes the contents of the pantry. If you are storing the pantry in a closet or in a garage, this will probably not be a big deal for you...but I needed this for my kitchen and to have a strip of exposed pantry and canned good items, etc is not all what I was looking for, nor does it give the appearance of a well built cabinet. I called closetmaid to complain and they told me that this was how the cabinet was designed (excuse me???...that makes no sense) and that if you look carefully at the box you will see the gap between the cabinet doors (sure enough...she was right...but who is looking for that when you are purchasing the items???). I was simply told that I was more than welcome to return the product to Target...great, that's perfect now that I have spent all of this time putting it together. So alas, it has become a storage unit for my garage which is not at ALL what I had purchased it for.If there had been no gaps between the cabinet doors I would have rated it a 4 or a 5. Yes it is particle board, yes it has a cardboard backing...but these things should be expected of a pantry at this price point. It is very sturdy and otherwise well made. I am just really bummed about the gap between the doors and Closetmaid's apparent lack of concern of their poor quality of craftmanship when it comes to cabinet doors. I will definitely think twice before buying another Closetmaid product. Their motto is definitely Buyer Beware!!

Easy to assemble. Everything fit perfectly. I think reviewers who had door issues don't realize the hinges are crucial. They have adjustable slots to get the doors to fit exactly the way they should. I am 62 and only 5 ft tall and had no problem assembling, getting the doors on correctly and then moving it into position. Serves my purpose for extra food storage in an apt setting with limited storage. Great Value.....ClosetMaid Pantry Cabinet, AlderMonday, July 7, 2014

Gorilla Rack GR7300-S23 3-Shelf 77-by-24-by-72-Inch Package Rack, Silver
These shelves go together super easy, although it is a good idea to have someone help you, simply given the size of them. No tools are necessary, apart from perhaps a rubber mallet to knock the pieces all the way together. Once the main structure is complete, there is a piece of MDF that lays across to form the actual shelf. Should that ever get wet & fail, it's a simple task to actually replace it with plywood for the same purpose)
Once the shelves are together you realize how sturdy they are. I should mention that if you get 2, you can actually connect them in the middle, so you can save a little space if need be, but still have all the shelving space you needed.
I have absolutely loaded up these shelves without so much as a creak from them. These are heavy duty shelves that can take a beating and keep working fine.
My order was from amazon, but it looks like it's 3rd party sellers selling them now. A word of caution if you do order them from amazon, it will be shipped via a freight carrier (CEVA logistics in my case) but they were super helpful in every aspect. they called to arrange the delivery, and the driver actually helped me move the boxes into the garage.
If you're needing some super strong LARGE shelves, these should absolutely fit the bill. As I said in my review for the smaller shelves, yes. They are pricey. But quality costs, and these are shelves that will last a lifetime.

The product looks great but the packaging is really bad. Had two of these had the same issues with the support beams bent and the boards were broken. Do not purchase as you will waste your team sending it back.Want Gorilla Rack GR7300-S23 3-Shelf 77-by-24-by-72-Inch Package Rack, Silver Discount?

Arrived on time. Was assembled in under 20 minutes. The color is lighter than what appears in the picture, so becareful. It fits perfect in a corner of our living room. Looks great. Its very simple but adds a unique touch to any room. It is a great buy for the price we paid. Satisfied!!Read Best Reviews of Home Star Espresso Corner Ladder Bookcase Here
I found this corner bookshelf after searching everywhere for one that would fit in a tight corner, next to a window in our bedroom. This fit the bill perfectly. I have textbooks taking over my nightstand, and this is currently holding 20+ of them neatly. It is true that the top shelf is small, but all the others hold 3-7 books a piece with ease. It doesn't take up much floorspace and is quite sturdy as well. Assembly was about 15 minutes, just using the provided allen wrench to bolt the shelves together. Would purchase again.It's exactly what I was looking for...something nice, not cheap & flimsy, but not an extremely high quality piece that would cost me hundreds of dollars. Shipping was quick and putting it together took only minutes. There was one minor area where the stain was light, but a quick dot with a brown marker and you couldn't tell! It was a gift for my sister and she loved it, and we've decided to purchase one for ourselves as well. It fit perfectly in a corner where her hallway turns and she just wanted a touch of something, so it's not a piece for displaying a large collection. It's very subtle and takes up very little space, yet it's tall so it has a presence that is just perfect for a little nook that needs just a little something to give it character. Love it!Monday, September 30, 2013
Create-a-Cart White Finish with Grey or Black Granite Top
Some tips:
1. Assemble the base first.
2. As you add the inside walls for the drawers, make certain the drawer rails are facing the correct way. We went by the picture and that was wrong. The wheels on the rails face the back of the unit. Trust me; we all discussed it, and then went with the picture then had to take it apart (which was fairly easy thank goodness).
3. The "F" bars were difficult to align with the back boards; but that may have been because we had those drawer rails facing the wrong way.
3. We suggest that you put on the towel and spice rack just before you are ready to put on the cross bars for the marble top. Makes tightening some of the screws easier.
4. One of our door hinges is defective/warped and makes the door pop open. Was going to ask the maker to send us new hinges, but instead we took the magnets from the bottom of one of our replacement Sonicare toothbrushes (the strongest little magnets you can find) and that keeps it shut.
Some measurements you may want to consider:
A. Inside drawers are small: 10 3/8" wide by 11 1/2" long. The small drawers are 3" deep and the bottom drawer is 8.5" deep.
B. The usable shelf space is 13" wide by 12" deep. One adjustable height shelf per cabinet. Would have liked one more.
We are happy with the piece. It is not deep not going to put a toaster or anything like that on it but it's a great workspace. We really like it. Would be 5 stars if they hadn't messed up that picture and given us a bad hinge. At the time of purchase we paid 441 dollars. At the time of this review the price has gone up significantly on Amazon you can find it at least 50 dollars cheaper elsewhere. Happy hunting.I really like it ...
It's just what I needed ..strong and very clean .. I pamper it like a car ! no one uses as a cutting board

Easy to put together. Like an easy puzzle. The pieces are readily marked and easy to check off when assessing what is received. The hardware for the drawers (the slides for the drawers and the hinges) already come assembled, so you are basically fitting the wood pieces together (though you do need to attach the wheels) which is easy and very well explained in the directions. If you're looking for additional counter space or kitchen storage space, this piece is an awesome add.Want Create-a-Cart White Finish with Grey or Black Granite Top Discount?
This item came in with two packages, one is the counter top, and the other is the rest of the cabinet. It's quite simple to put together as long as you have the power tool, you do need to pay attention to the details of each component in order to assemble it properly.The items came in decent condition, I did have some parts that had scratch on them, but overall I am pretty satisfied.
The wheels have locks on them, I thought it's worth mentioning.
I would give it a five star if the instruction can be more clear or somehow mark the parts, so people can immediately tell which way is the right way for each part. Also, of course it would be perfect if there were no scratches at all to the parts.
