InterDesign Axis Three Tier Tower Shelf

InterDesign Axis Three Tier Tower Shelf, BronzeI purchased this shelf for a tight space in my bathroom, and it fit the bill perfectly. The product arrived as described and in good condition.

Great little shelf that is perfect for the bathroom. I put it right between my sink and toilet which is a tight space (I am in an apartment) and it fits great there. I am able to put my things I use to get read in the morning on the shelves and it all fits great. Nice piece for any bathroom if you're looking for a little more storage space.

This gets things off the counter by going vertical, which was what I was after. I only gave it four stars because the wire shelves allow bottles to tip easily. A solid shelf would not do that.

Oh this shelf not only is a GREAT price...it's a steal! It's really nothing to put together, very stylish and sturdy. GREAT buy! Buy a few of them! I got my order before expected. It's no glass to clean just light dusting or wet and dry cloth weekly. Nice decorative piece.

This shelf is much smaller than you might think it is, but it looks nice and is well made, which is all one can ask for.

Welland 48 Inch x 12 Inch x 2 Inch Houston Wall Shelf Display Floating Shelves Black

Welland 48 Inch x 12 Inch x 2 Inch Houston Wall Shelf Display Floating Shelves BlackDid not even come near meeting any of my expectations. They already look 5 years old and I had them professionally installed-completely scratched and they do not hold the weight they say.

Do not buy.

I've got to admit, if you need the the 12" depth, it's really the only thin on the market, but it arrived with a ding on the top (covered by my cable box, so life goes on) and part of the paint on one side edge was scraped. Can't recommend unless you absolutely need this dimension.

I would probably have returned it, but with the ridiculous shipping, I didn't want to incur any more cost and just cut my losses.

A+ Childsupply Toddler 2 section Coat Locker

A+ Childsupply Toddler 2 section Coat LockerThis locker is made very well, real wood, sturdy. I bought it for my 8 year old, and it is WAY too small for him. Says it's recommended for children up to 17, I don't think it would be any use to a child over about 5.

I run an in home child care and thought this would suffice for my needs. This will only be a temporary fix for 2 (2-3 yrs old) toddlers but not a permanent cubbie. I will have to go to Kaplans and buy the real sized cubbies with 4 child spaces for $200. A 4T coat barely fits in this and the backpack had to be stored in the underneath compartment, not hanging next to the coat. Each child has a width of 8.5in of space, 7in deep in the top storage and 12in deep in the coat and underneath storage area. Instead of putting both hooks inside each child's area on the right and left, I placed one on the outside wall and the other on the inside of the outside wall using the 2 connectors. This way the 2 older children I have can hang their coat and book bags on the outside. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND BUYING THIS ITEM AND I AM RETURNING IT.

The outer boards were warped and made this a bear to put together, other than that I believe this would be durable for quite some time.

My kids' coats and backpacks were getting out of control so I found something similar to what they have at their school. It's a little small. My 5 year old's coat drags on the bottom shelf and it's a little narrow for winter coats. I installed two extra hooks on the outside for backpacks. It does the job, but may be better suited for dress up clothes than for coats.

This "toddler" shelf is way too small. I have a 5 year old and a 2 year old and neither one of their coats will even hang inside because there is not enough space. I do not recommend this if you are looking for an area to store even your small child's gear.

Ultra Cap UA5372 36-Inch Wide by 12-Inch Deep by 85-Inch High Six-Shelf Open Shelving Unit, Grey

Ultra Cap UA5372 36-Inch Wide by 12-Inch Deep by 85-Inch High Six-Shelf Open Shelving Unit, GreyI ordered this product to use in my garage. When I received the boxes, the nuts and bolts bag was missing. It took two phone calls and 3 weeks to get the parts. We looked at the directions but the parts in the box didn't match the instructions contents list. The instructions were also not clear at all. The worst part was that the assembly process took 3 and 1/2 hours. This was due to the poor engineering of the product. The clips just rest on the frame so that when you push down one side of the shelf onto the clips, the clips on the other side would fall off. The parts do not lock in place, so I am afraid the whole thing will collapse.

Leick Riley Holliday Corner TV Stand, 46-Inch, Espresso

Leick Riley Holliday Corner TV Stand, 46-Inch, EspressoWe finally moved into the 21st century and bought a flat screen TV which necessitated buying a new stand. We spent a weekend looking through several furniture stores to get ideas. We decided that for our room, a corner unit would work best. Typical furniture store prices for what we liked were $400 on up. We wanted a nice piece that looked like good furniture, something a bit better than the Sauder/O'Sullivan things, (though they do make some extraordinary pieces). I spent an afternoon on the Internet searching for corner units and found this Riley Holliday stand.

I looked at it on several different websites and read all the reviews. I was impressed with what the reviews said about the quality and the ease of assembly. (It is shipped flat and actually is hinged and "unfolds") Our AmEx points allowed us to get this a good price through Amazon, and it arrived within the stated shipping/delivery parameters (even though it was the week before Christmas).

Today we got it out of the box and assembled it. Nothing could have been easier and I have assembled numerous assemble-it-yourself pieces: bookshelves, computer desks, as well as an entire wall of garage cabinets. It basically unfolds and then you slide in the lower shelf, the upper shelf and then put the top on. All the fasteners and the Allen-head wrench were included. I put extra felt "feet" on the bottom, even though there were rubber/nylon feet in place, just because we recently refinished our wood floors. The stand is wood, not laminate-covered particle board. The brushed nickel knob that was included was very nice, a substantial piece of hardware, not just some cheap, plated piece. The NICEST surprise was the beveled glass in the door. We chose the Espresso finish, which is a perfect match to our existing furniture and complements the room very nicely. Our new TV is a 40 inch model, which is the right size for this particular stand. The title indicates it's for a plasma TV, but in reality you could use it for just about any flat-screen TV. I would say the TV that is shown in the product photo is a 40 inch unit, just to give you an idea of the proportions.

We love our new tv stand! I usually don't expect really great quality when I buy online, since I can't look closely and inspect the item before buying. We were pleasantly surprised to find that this is very good quality and looks really nice. It comes folded up, so all you have to do is take it out of the box and unfold it, then set the bottom piece in and screw on the top. The beveled glass front looks really nice too it was rattling a little bit at first, but I pressed the plastic stripping on the back side of the glass and tightened it up, and no more rattle! The height of the stand is just right for watching the tv from the couch, you don't have to hurt your neck looking up too high.

Negatives: It had a strong wood stain smell when we took it out of the box. I couldn't watch tv the first day or two because it made my eyes water to be in the room with it. After it had a chance to air out, it was fine. Also, the color is labeled "espresso" but I don't think it's really that dark. We saw the picture and thought it looked dark brown with red tones, and that's exactly what we were looking for, so we're happy. But if you're looking for dark espresso, this might not suit your color needs.

We were looking for a corner stand to consolidate the stereo and dish equipment...solid wood, practically no assembly....compared to "u know what I mean". Doesn't look like it's easy to chip... aesthetically pleasing, too.

We were so impressed with how quickly we received it and then when we opened it up and found the ease of assembly we were elated! It is hinged, unfolds, put in the shelves, screw down the top and put on the handle-done!!! My husband did it, but I could have easily completed the project myself. It looks much more expensive than it is. Color is beautiful-kind of a red dark tone-very nice!! Don't hesitate to get this one!!

First time buying furniture on line sight unseen, so I was a little nervous. But the positive reviews swayed me. I must say that this TV stand was all that I expected, and then some! It could not have been easier to assemble...took less than 10 minutes. Its appearance was also a pleasant surprise. Looks like a fine piece of furniture! Would strongly recommend this item.

Bell'O Color Accented Flat Panel Audio Video System - Glass, Steel - Black

Bell'O Color Accented Flat Panel Audio Video System - Glass, Steel - Black
  • Accommodates most flat panel TVs up to 58" and130 lbs. weight capacity
  • 6mm glass with universal mount
  • Usable top and bottom shelves
  • Weight capacity of each lower shelf: 50 lbs.
  • Easy assembly and installation

I recently received this table and put it together with almost no problem. The one issue I have with it was that the metal pieces that are used to hide the cables came bent in several spots. I don't think it was due to the shipping because it was packaged pretty well but just due to poor craftsmanship. I was able to bend the pieces back into shape but doing this degrades the metal even further. I only took off one star for this because it was just the cable management brackets and not the table itself.

Also, the price is a bit steep for such a simple design but I do find that it accents the Samsung Touch of Color televisions well. I have noticed that it looks a bit unsteady but it hasn't given me any problems yet so I guess it's just due to what only appears to be a lack of reinforcement to the back of the table. Overall I think I made a good choice on the purchase and would recommend it to others, so as long as they're not too picky with the simplicity of the product.

This bell'o flat panel stand is very nice. The shipping package/box was in very good condition so no problem there. The directions are a little tedious but again no problem there. It does take two people to hang the tv but I put the entire stand together alone. The allen wrench tools in the box are all you need for tools and worked like a charm.

I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a high quality flat panel stand.

I purchased this unit along with a Samsung LN52A650 HDTV. It goes great with the TV, but I feel it was a bit over priced. It took time to put together and the allen wrenches that come along with the unit are not the best quality. Make sure you have a good set a wrenches just in case. The shelfing of the unit is glass, so I would not recommend it if you have small children.

Be careful when purchasing this product. I bought it to go along with the Samsung LN52B750 Touch of Color LCD. I was concerned that this was Red TOC and the new tvs are Grey TOC. However, my call to Bello confirmed that they were not introducing a grey version anytime soon. But this is not my complaint. My complaint is that it does not appear to be designed for the 2009 models of Samsung. In the paperwork, it mentions ten different configurations for the tv set up. My samsung did not match. The issue is that the screw holes on the back of the tv for the brackets are 16" apart in both width and height. The width works fine for the bracket but the height does not match the 12" design of the stand. There is no way to adjust the height of the screws on the stand that the tv brackets are supposed to rest on. So either, you are only using one bracket on the tv connected to the stand which does not seem ideal or you have to come up with a clever way to tweak it. I chose the latter and basically set the top bracket in place, set two vertical brackets outside the top screws but angled in to screw into the lower set of screws. The lower horizontal bracket was then attached to the vertical brackets (not the tv) and placed 12" below the top bracket so that I have two brackets resting on the stand. It was a pain to figure out and then align everything.

The solution I came up with seems to work fine. And the tv looks great on the stand with space on the top shelf for a center channel and side speakers. So I really have no complaint with the stand itself other than the initial configuration and lack of instructions to match the Samsung configuration. I will be placing a call into Bello to find out their solution.

Bell'O improved the design of this stand about 18 months ago. The newer version (which I recently bought) is very sturdy and very easy to assemble. It uses a new mounting system that holds the TV on a single large pin that makes mounting and swiveling the TV extremely easy (important to B860 owners wanting to redirect the center-of-screen buzz).

The picture at the top of this product page is for the original version. Go to the Bell'O web site for pictures of the newer version.

I recommend this stand for anyone looking at a Samsung TOC large panel TV.

Packaging is still not great: the outside cardboard of mine was in a shambles, although there was enough interior packaging (mostly foam) to protect all the parts from damage.

Danze D446134BN Sirius 18-Inch Glass Shelf, Brushed Nickel

Danze D446134BN Sirius 18-Inch Glass Shelf, Brushed NickelI am very happy with this, bought two to put up in my remodeled guest bath and they look just great. Seem to be holding (no pun intended) up well, still bright and shiney and glass is clear. Looks sleek and designer.

As advertised, high quality, contemporary and quick delivery. I called customer service to ask about installing with the round edge facing out for safety with small children and she called me back within 10 minutes to confirm it was possible.

Highly recommend this product and Danze as a supplier.

This product was fine, but it was a bit too long/wide for the space. Even though we measured before ordering, the shelf extended out too far. We custom-ordered a 12" shelf from a local glass company because we couldn't find a smaller glass shelf online.

Not easy to install need two people to install due to no room for error in the placement of the ends. Measure and re measure to make sure you are hanging properly. Looks amazing and very modern

TechCraft SWH4024B 40-Inch High Multimedia Tower - Black

TechCraft SWH4024B 40-Inch High Multimedia Tower - Black
  • 40 Inches High Black Audio Side- Rack for your components and other curios
  • Store your components on open shelves or concealed behind glass door
  • Adjustable shelves and ample wire management cutouts provided
  • Designed to complement the models SWBL48 and SWBL60

This audio stand looks exactly like the photo. The dimensions under "see more technical details" are incorrect. This stand measures 24 inches across, 20 inches deep and 40 inches high. It is made primarily of solid wood with wood veneers and thus it is quite heavy. However, as a result, the stand looks and feels much better than the cheap particle board furniture you can buy at the discount store. The only things that feel cheap are the 2 adjustable shelves which are made of compressed board with plastic veneers. I found the assembly to be relatively easy to do by myself and it took me about an hour. The box is very well packed and the contents, including the bottom glass door, came all the way to Hawaii undamaged, even though there was a big ding on one of the sides of the box. In my opinion, this is a very good value at $185, and I highly recommend this audio stand to anyone looking for a dark wood audio cabinet of this size.

Over the years, I've had more than my fair share of this type of furniture. I was really surprised at the level of quality on this cabinet.

There seems to be some confusion in the reviews on the type of material. For the most part, this cabinet is all solid wood, which is very unusual at this price point. The only exception is the shelves, which are vinyl-covered flakeboard, the fixed shelf has a solid-wood front edge.

This cabinet is great. Shipping was fast, as usual with Amazon. It was packed well, but not so bad that I had to destroy the box to get it out. Instructions were spartan, but not so bad you couldn't figure it out. If you ever put a Swedish piece of furniture together, you can do this.

It looks great once its assembled, held all the pieces I wanted it to and more (cable box, Onkyo receiver, BluRay player) and fits in the spot I had planned for it. Overall, it looks better than the picture, went together in about an hour and seems well constructed. If the dimensions fit what you are looking for, buy this you won't regret it.

I received this item with a damaged piece, despite good packaging. I saw that the item was manufactured in China and thought that getting a replacement part would be next to impossible. I was wrong. I went to the web address printed on the front of the assembly manual and was stunned to find a well-developed website with a form that can be submitted to request replacements for damaged parts. I provided the information from the label on the back of the cabinet and submitted the form. Within 24 hours I had a ship notice with tracking number, and 3 business days later I received a new, undamaged, shelf free of charge. Awesome!

Assembly was very easy, less than 1 hour. It feels very solid and looks great. A couple of nice touches are the ability to adjust the little foot on the bottom of each leg to get it perfectly level and the ability to adjust the door positioning in all 3 dimensions to ensure that is is centered within the opening and opens/closes without friction. I am very happy with this purchase.

This is a really nice piece of furniture. I purchased it to house my Home Theater, Blu-ray, DVD-Laser disk and cable tuner equipment.

It is very roomy, and was very well packaged. Assembly took about an hour and the directions and fit were just great.

The finish and the supplied hinges for the glass door were very impressive.
