Whitmor 6060-3436 Supreme Small 3-Tier Shelving, Chrome
Overall I'm happy with this shelf and my purchase, HOWEVER potential buyers should note that an essentially identical set of shelves is available at both major DIY chains (HD and Lowe's), at literally half the price (Amazon will probably delete the figures, but they were $20 at HD and Lowe's vs $40 at Amazon). I also bought the similar unit from HD, which has literally exactly the same design (there are only very minute differences), is rated/described as "commercial" (however that is defined) and is rated slightly higher on weight capacity (250 vs 200 lbs per shelf). I found the HD unit to be just slightly easier to assemble, and in my opinion they are equally sturdy and stable. Had I known these were available at HD/Lowe's at half the price, I would have just purchased them there as I have found them identical in terms of functionality.For all of you who need only 3 shelves, this is a sturdy little shelf, and I'd buy it again.
For the rest of you: I bought a few of these for my kitchen, hoping to be able to stack them (and make a taller rack that fits perfectly in a corner space I needed to use). Whitmor customer service was spectacular in the way that they shipped me 8 couplings (for between the indivual pieces--i wanted a total of 3 sets = 9 shelves) that arrived within 2 days of me calling.
What didn't work: Apparently customer service didn't know that this was actually impossible, as both ends of each rod are not threaded. I could have, and should have, checked, but I had a set from another manufacturer and assumed this would be the same. With careful planning of the use of the little black pieces that hold each shelf, I managed to do what I wanted, but it would have been better to have the threaded coupling in there for insurance. Whitmor--please change your design.

The size and picture of the item to determine if if was the same as the ones I already own was very important. This shelving is very versatile as it is adjustable and easy to install. Also easy tear down for moving or storage purposes. Excellent item for small spaces.Read Best Reviews of Whitmor 6060-3436 Supreme Small 3-Tier Shelving, Chrome Here
I needed something for extra storage in my small kitchen and this little stand works very well. The "see through" stand seems to take up less room than it actually does and yet holds a lot of things. The directions could be a little better but that's often the case and I figured them out and put it together quickly. I am very pleased with the quality.Want Whitmor 6060-3436 Supreme Small 3-Tier Shelving, Chrome Discount?
This is a sturdy little unit that was so easy to put together even a child could do it! It serves our purpose perfectly, and supports quite a lot of weight (canned goods) comfortably.Saturday, May 10, 2014
RiverRidge Kids Horizontal Bookcase
Buy RiverRidge Kids Horizontal Bookcase Now
Purchased this because the color matched our Nursery. It was not that easy to put together and relied a lot on wooden dowels to hold things together.It's sturdy enough, but will likely fail if moved around enough.
All in all, the price is decent and the furniture holds books.
Just not that great of a design.

I was very happy with my purchase. The bookcase is really sturdy and cute and fits perfectly in my 3 year old's bedroom. It's a smaller bookcase, but that's what we were looking for. Good value!This bookcase is horrible. The directions that came in the box were for a three shelf bookcase and we got the two shelf bookcase. The dowels were WAY too small. The finish scratched coming out of the box. It is extremely cheap quality. So save the money and do not get this bookcase, you are better off putting your money in a slot machine this way you can at least get a chance of hitting the jackpot.Sunday, April 27, 2014
Retro 4 Tier Chrome Corner Rack with Wood Shelf Tops
Buy Retro 4 Tier Chrome Corner Rack with Wood Shelf Tops Now
Other reviewers have mentioned it and I agree these are very cheap. In fact the way to assemble it isn't really the most efficient either but once you get it set up it's a fairly good little stand. I use it by the entrance foyer to put rags to wipe my dog's feet, keys, cell phone, wallet, gloves, and the usual little things. Definitely nothing heavy.Read Best Reviews of Retro 4 Tier Chrome Corner Rack with Wood Shelf Tops Here

Ameriwood Over The Toilet Cabinet
Buy Ameriwood Over The Toilet Cabinet Now
The one i received had a few scratches and chips on it nothing that a little paint marker didn't cover up easily. I love the modern look of this piece and assembly was pretty easy. It's very sturdy once up.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.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.Thursday, October 3, 2013
Hanging Wine Glass Rack
Buy Hanging Wine Glass Rack Now
This stemware rack was easy to install, looks good, and performs well. I am a professional kitchen designer and installer, and elected to use this rack rather than the one available from the cabinet manufacturer. It worked our better, as we are using a low profile flourescent light fixture above it. We mounted the back side of the rack to the extended back of the cabinet, and made some spacers for the front installation point. The recessed light is above the rack, and is hardwired, so it is not necessary to switch it on and off at the fixture, which is a must. It is a little difficult to relamp the fixture, but it can be done without removing the rack. The effect of the stemware lit from above is quite dramatic. I will definitely use this installation detail again.The rack was very easy to install and felt pretty sturdy even after only 2 screws (no drill needed, just screwed right into the bottom of wooden shelf). Our nice Riedel glasses (which have 3.5 inch bases) fit very nicely. Would definitely recommend it.This wine rack looks really nice, installs easily and takes up virtually no space with its under counter design. Installation took about 5 minutes with a cordless screwdriver and 6 provided screws. The front-to-back fit is fairly snug, so if your cabinets have any of those plastic stapled in support brackets you will have to remove/move them first.
