Seville Classics 11.5 by 17.5 by 12-Inch 12-Bottle Wine Rack

Seville Classics SHE05110 12-Bottle Chrome Wine RackAfter searching for wine racks, we decided on two sets of this one. We're very pleased with our decision. The item is described as "industrial-like". It is as sturdy as similar types of racking found in restaurants, one of the reasons for purchasing this item.

The racks came unassembled, but were very easy to assemble. Also included were 4 additional side post extenders. A great feature that isn't noted: The racks come with leveling feet which add to the stability of the units.

The following are some comparisons with other units considered.

1) This unit holds a larger number of wine bottles than some of the more decorative units, but at a lower price.

2) The metal racking is less susceptible to problems caused by dampness and temperature changes than rattan or soft wood racks.

3) If leveling feet are not included with some of the other racks, then there might be a problem with stability and a greater chance of tipping.

4) Some of the wood racks store wine bottles on flat racks with wood separators between the bottles. There was no adjustability between the shelves or the bottles, so special racks would need to be purchased for oversized bottles. This unit has large enough scalloped wine holders to hold wine bottles in a variety of sizes without adjusting the racks.

This item is well worth its cost, the purchase price plus the shipping charge.

This rack fell right into the style & price range that I wanted. After searching many styles, I chose this one and I couldn't be more pleased. An earlier review stated this was difficult to assemble, but it's not you just have to read the directions carefully and then realize that they tell you rack-by-rack how to put it together. The leveling feet are a great feature and there is, also included in the box, the additional hardware for adding another rack. I am very happy with this selection.

I agree with Morning Glory, this is a great little wine rack. My bar is a limited space and this fits nicely yet holds a bunch. It is stable and the bottles are secure. Being able to expand it is an attractive feature.

I bought this rack to keep a case of wine in easy reach on a shelf in the basement. The rack was easy to assemble, and it is stable and holds twelve bottles of wine very nicely. It also has a small footprint, and the price is reasonable. I would buy this rack again.

This is a great little wine rack for folks like us who keep a little wine on hand, but are not wine connoisseurs by any means. The unit is compact enough to easily fit in a corner in our kitchen, but large enough to hold 12 bottles of wine. It may not be the most stylish thing, but it's unobtrusive and gets the job done.

South Shore 5159730 Reveal Collection Bookcase, Chocolate

South Shore 5159730 Reveal Collection Bookcase, ChocolateI bought this bookshelf from another seller to match my South Shore City Life TV Stand. I love the asymmetric openings and it is the perfect size for my space. I like that it is made from environmentally friendly materials at a factory in Mexico (unlike so much other affordable furniture, which comes from China). This shelf feels solid and well made once it is assembled; I'm not afraid it is going to fall apart or fall over. It does come with a safety strap to attach it to your wall if that is a concern.

Assembly was fairly easyI did it by myself (with a little "help" from my 4 year old) in just about an hour and a half, but figuring out how to hammer the pieces together without damaging them was a little challenging at first. I used a regular hammer wrapped in a few layers of towel, but a rubber mallet probably would have worked better.

My biggest issue and the reason I only rated this three stars is that there were a number of manufacturing defects. All shipping materials were intact, but corners of the long boards were dinged and had small chunks missing, exposing bare wood; there were "dents" that had no exposed wood but are still very noticable; and the top and bottom boards were warped just enough to be difficult to attach. Trying to return this once it was unpacked would have been a nightmare, and fortunately none of the damaged corners ended up on the front side of the shelf so it looks great in my living room.

I found this on sale and paid just over $100 inluding tax and shipping. It is difficult to find a large 'modern' looking bookshelf in this price range, and I am happy with my purchase. If I had paid closer to the list price of $175 I would have been disappointed at having a less-than-perfect item.

Umbra Birdie Wall-Mount Organizer with Magnetic Key Holder

Umbra Birdie Wall-Mount Organizer with Magnetic Key HolderAll metal construction, beefy will last.

Has a great mech bird style. And gives you template to drill your holes.

It's okay but the magnet loses strength over time. The same is true for the birdie key holders. They hold, but just not too many keys.

Zenith Products No Tools Oil Rubbed Bronze and Glass Spacesaver

Zenith Products Chrome and Glass No Tools Studio Accents SpacesaverI have a small bathroom and lots of stuff. This shelf fits perfectly into the space around and above the toilet adding three handy, room shelves for stuff like shaving equipment and water pic.

Unlike some it is very sturdy, especially when I mounted it to the wall at one point. It is very nice looking, well designed. Unlike some over-toilet shelves (Etagere), it does not look cheap and flimsy. But unlike others, it is reasonably priced and easy to assemble.

The shelves are bowed out in the middle so it is not the full depth all along the width. That was good for me because I did not have to removes some wall fixtures to place it. The shelves are roomy and secure. The shelf glass is tempered and thick.

It looks great and it's very handy. I was going to build shelves but this is cheaper and better looking.

I did a lot of research looking at many models of Etagere and user reviews, and I am glad I picked this one.

I do not think this thing was worth the box it came in. It would not go together properly. At the very end you are supposed to screw on the top caps, but the screws did not stick up high enough to fasten. I do not know if it was user error (I'm usually pretty good at putting these kinds of things together) or if I got a defective product. Overall, I would not recommend this. Even if it had gone together properly, I do not think it looks worth the price it is listed for.

This is a helpful, simple, useful product. Works well in a small bathroom. Comes with excellent instructions. Tookjust few minutes to assemble, without tools. For safety, you may wish to mount to wall, but it's set up for that if you wish.

DO NOT order this product. A portion of it is plastic coated with a metal colored coating that scratches off easily, also the metal parts are lightly scrated and dented. After putting together 100 different parts, the shelf is so unsteady, I'm afraid its going to topple over at any time.

Want Zenith Products No Tools Oil Rubbed Bronze and Glass Spacesaver Discount?

This space saver is fairly easy to assemble. However, in order for it to be remotely sturdy you'll need to attach it to the wall (which requires tools). If you omit this step, the unit is very wobbly and is not sturdy. It is very difficult to level this unit properly as well. Overall, I would consider this unit to be very poor quality and would suggest looking for something more sturdy.

Seville Classics Shelving System with Wheels/Ledges

Seville Classics SHE18487 18-Inch by 48-Inch by 72-Inch Shelving System with Wheels, ChromeArrived in fine shape.

I had read the reviews and am happy to say this is better than I expected.

First I would suggest reading the others reviews regarding assembly as some

of the shortcuts are very good.

Let me add that the Back Guards shown in the picture are not part of the

shelfs but are snap-ons. I mention this as it almost stopped me from

buying this unit as I need a flat shelf for some over hang issues with

tools (saws and such) that I needed to store. Also, their snap on feature

proved to be very handy as I used two on a top shelf as a bin for

smaller motorcycle parts. It appears that you could use them to divide

a shelf if you wanted, very flexible design.

Assembly was straight forward, I followed another reviewers advice and

did the bottom shelf and wheels first and this enabled me to easily "fit"

certain shelfs to larger items as I went along.

Just ordered another...

Best,

Joe

1. First order unit arrived complete great product !

2. Placed second order for same product arrived incomplete w/o wheels nor retaining ledges, part no. on the box was correct.

Called Amazon...they sent me replacement overnight !

3. replacement arrived....incomplete w/o wheels nor retaining ledges, part no. on the box was correct.

Had to repack both boxes and sent to Amazon (at their cost) but packing/handling two 75lb boxes aint't fun not to mention time wasted

dealing with reps, cost of packing supply (have to pack it waell so 75lb package will not fall apart on way back) and time related

4. Was told that Amazon will investigate and remove from sale list, which never did.

5. Ordering next one from Walmart where I can pick in the store and check befor paying....suggest you do the same

Spectrum Over-The-Shelf Divider Large 1-Pair

Spectrum 77100 Over-The-Shelf Divider Large 1-Pair, WhiteI was really happy with product. Takes seconds to install and really made a BIG difference with the linen closet. Had some left over too.

I was trying to find a way to keep my piles of folded clothes from falling over and creating a jumbled mess on the shelf at the top of my closet. This product solved my problem. My folded sweaters and jeans now stay in place and my closet looks super neat. This product seems to be very sturdy and very easy to use. You just slide it onto the shelf and it's ready to use. I may buy some more for the other shelves in my house.

These are working very well on the top shelf of two tiny closets to separate 4 stacks of garments. It seems possible that my lighter summer items, e.g., camisoles and t-shirts, might get stuck in the wire loops, but so far, no real trouble even with them. The height is just right for standard shelves in an old home; the sturdy metal grip slid on easily and holds securely, no sliding around at all. I had to angle the dividers a bit to get them in place, so would recommend installing when shelves are empty if space is tight.

I bought these to tame my husband's unbelievably messy closet. Three months later, he has managed to maintain his newly organized wardrobe! These take seconds to install and are not bad-looking. It has definitely made a huge difference in his closet, so I recently bought some more to tackle the kid's room. Wish me luck!

Want Spectrum Over-The-Shelf Divider Large 1-Pair Discount?

I really needed these for a closet shelf so I could put some sweaters there. I looked through all dividers that were available on Amazon Prime and read all the reviews and checked dimensions. What I could not tell was how they secured UNDER the shelf, but reviews were pretty good so I decided to try these.

The rod that goes under the shelf runs about halfway under the shelf and ends with a "t" to keep it from sliding around, so it's pretty stable. So glad my sweaters are organized now! I am impressed and pleased that they are working so well!

Home Styles Premium Create-a-Cart

Home Styles Premium Create-a-CartThe one good thing about the Kitchen Island is it arrived on-time. For the price I paid for the product it should have gone together smoothly. There was some damage to the front corner, some holes were not drilled through on the bottom, the inside walls are slightly warped so the shelves in the middle do not fit in (...its ok I was putting my kitchen aid in the middle anyways), the drawers are really flimsy and will not hold anything with any weight and my husband had a hard time getting them to line up and screw together.

I would return it but I brought it across the border to Canada and there is so much packaging bits that I doubt I could make it fit back in the shipping box. lol I will use it and it will work, but, for the price $500 I would expect better quality. Next time I will go local.

It took my husband several hours to assemble this kitchen cart. Some of the wood was warped, some of the holes were mis-drilled, and way too many cam-locks, which are surely Satan's invention. Some pieces were so nicely painted, except for the one side that would be exposed to the eye. Some manufactured wood, not a lot.

It does look nice, no missing pieces, seems sound and sturdy, but my husband won't let me move it. So I run to the kitchen when he's asleep and roll it all around the kitchen. He hasn't found out, and it's still standing.

Burnes of Boston LL2931 Level Line Walnut 3 piece Ledge Set

Burnes of Boston LL2931  Level Line Walnut 3 piece Ledge SetSomehow I missed it on the description, but these shelves are plastic, don't get me wrong they are acceptable as an entry level shelving, but they are not Walnut shelves.

Just thought others might benefit from knowing for sure that they aren't wood.

I have installed other photo ledges before and while they were fairly simple to hang, this system beats them all! All you have to is hang a small plastic strip on the wall (it has a level built into it). You add one nail at a time, keeping the level where it needs to be, and then you are done. There are optional anchors and screws if you need them. Then all you have to do is put the ledge on the plastic piece. The piece is made of hard plastic and has a lip for the ledge to hang on. No worries, as it is very sturdy! I use the anchors, because I tend to put several heavy picture frames on mine.

The finish is a nice and comes in several other colors. They are made of wood and laminate materials (but most photo ledges are). There is a lip on the top to help hold frames in place. The Burnes of Boston product line is a bit more expensive than other ledges, but it is worth every penny. The hanging system and detail are worth it. You can try mixing and matching the sizes if you have a large wall to put photos/displays on.

The shelves look very nice themselves, but, as others have said, the mounting, although easy to do, leaves the shelves feeling unsturdy. I would certainly limit the weight on them.

On the other hand, the mounting hardware is poor at best. The fasteners that are supposed to screw into the wall are of the poorest quality. After drilling holes, three of the six actually CRUMBLED as I touched them. I wound up using my own subsitiutes to insure a stable mount.

As long as you know that they're not made of wood (although parts that don't show are), this is a nice easy-to-put-up set of picture ledges. I got mine at a big box store that has these in other styles and colors. Took me less than 5 minutes to get these up, thanks to the level being there on the plastic piece. All mounting nails and (if they're needed) anchors are included. All you need is a hammer. If you intend to put other than a picture on this ledge, I suggest weighing the pieces together keeping the total weight to less than 10 pounds. These are not shelves, only shallow ledges. I'm very happy with their appearance.

Very good product. It may be plastic but it looks like wood. Very attractive and easy to put up. You can't beat it for convenience, price and looks.

8 Flavor Tea Rack 224 total packsI was looking for something big enough for all my herbal tea and this tower is perfect. The only little problem is that it's quite high, therefore I can't place it under the top cupboards of my kitchen. If you have place anywhere else in the kitchen it's great because the shiny black gives a classy look to it.
