LockerWorks Hanging Locker Organizer

LockerWorks Hanging Locker Organizer Black/redMy son is in sixth grade in a school that has top lockers and bottom lockers, which is problematic on many levels no pun intented. First the lockers are 11 inches wide which seems standard, but only 33+ inches high which doesn't leave much room for 3 inch binders, text books, notebooks, library books, musical instruments, gym clothes, winter coats and alike. Then toss in the fact that if the person with the locker above or below yours is at their loccker first and you have to wait to get into yours, then you have less time to find your stuff admist the clutter in your locker and then rush off to class which maybe at the other end of the building. Obviously, this what led me to search out some form of locker organization for my son and what lead me to this product. I admit it seemed pricey, but it it also seemed to be a good fit for what we needed. Well it arrived just the other day and I was amazed at how well it was constructed and the many features that the product description did not even mention. The Metal Hangers are beyond sturdy and more that ample support for all the books other items that need to be stored in a locker. The Hangers can also be slipped into 3 different slots at the top of the organizer in order to shorten the length a few inches if the organzer is to long. Now if even at the lowest slot the organizer is still to long, or if you just want to limit the organizer to 2 shelves instead of its normal 3 shelves, you can snap up the bottom shelf leaving you with a 2 shelf version. It also has a slot on the top shelf where it looks like you can slip a note pad or wallet for safe keeping and a strip of elastic banding has been attached where you can slip spare pencils, pens, or even a folded up note. Finally, the Organizer is 9 inches wide which still leaves room for a coat and/or empty backpack to be slipped into the locker beside it. And that's just off the top of my head. To sum up, it's great and we'll worth the money. I intend on buying them for each of my other 4 children when they reach middle school. They are even so well made, I can see them lasting through highschool to college where it could be hung in a closet. Trust me it's worth it!

My daughter needed to organize her half-locker so she could quickly grab books between classes. This organizer was perfect! It's sturdy, adjustable, and because it has three "shelves," it holds a multitude of books and her coat easily.

My daughter loves this shelf unit. The lockers at her school are the thin ones with the book section above. Hers was on the top and she couldn't see into it or reach it. She has installed the hanging shelves and it is working out beautifully. Now I don't have to listen to the complaining about not being able to see/get to her books. It is a little pricey, but worth it.

I bought this product to try and help my daughter organise her books. Unfortunately the locker was deeper than the organiser and all the books kept falling through the back. The hooks for holding it up worked very well and it's very sturdy but your locker can't be deeper than the organisers dimensions.

My son is in his first middle school year and has been using the locker organizer hanging shelves for about two months. They have made a considerable difference for him in terms of easier and faster retrieval of his stuff when he is in a hurry the school breaks between classes are just three minutes long. Additionally, I suspect that the day-to-day practice of good space and time management of his locker will translate into better time and space management in other areas of his life; for example, his work at home.

On the technical side, the shelves are both very simple and very robust since they do not wear off at all and are easily adjustable length-wise (to two or three shelves). They accomodate all sorts of books and school tools. Therefore, they could probably be used until (and even beyond) highschool graduation of one's child, in a shorter or a taller locker. The one thing they will not be able to accomodate easily is a winter coat that hangs on the side wall or the back wall of the locker the space left is insufficient. If the shelves are used (after adjustment) in their shorter version (i.e. two shelves), one could squeeze a backpack at the bottom of the locker. My son's locker has an upper (drawer-like) subcompartment, on whose bottom plate are the shelves hanging, and this arrangement works fine. I do not know whether a different arrangement will work as well; for example, we have not tried fixing the shelves on hooks that hang on the side or back walls of the locker.

In summary, the hanging shelves would be an excellent choice for managing space and (consequently) time for someone (student or other) who is made to use a locker. They obviously cannot increase locker space but they can make life bearable for the user. The price, when I made the purchase at least, seemed rather high but I have forgotten about it already, given the utility and durability of the device, and knowing that it has saved my son a lot of grief at times when he is left to fend for himself.

Household Essentials Glidez 2-Tier Chrome Sliding Cabinet Organizer

Household Essentials Glidez 2-Tier Chrome Sliding Cabinet Organizer, 11 1/2-Inch WideHeavy guage chrome makes the unit quite sturdy. The removable corner posts makes installation in tight spaces quite easy. Easy installation with all necessary hardware provided and clear installation instructions. A cordless drill makes the installation a snap. Totally impressed and satisfied. Price beats anything that I found at the big box stores. Definitely considering purchasing more for other locations--used the two I purchased for bathroom sink cabinets.

Like product. Wish the bigger one was a bit narrower 14.5 means 14.5 that would not fit my 14.5 inch door opening.

These products are made VERY well. They are heavy gauge metal and very well constructed. They take about 15-20 minutes to install and will last a lifetime. I now have several of the Household Essential cabinet organizers and I could not be happier with them.

FURINNO FNCJ-33013 Pine Solid Wood 3-Tier Shelf

FURINNO FNCJ-33013 Pine Solid Wood 3-Tier ShelfFor the price this is a good quality product. It is very strong with the bars in the back to make it more rigid. I put two baskets loaded with bathroom toiletries on the shelves and there is no problem with the weight limit or bowing of the shelves. I thought it would come with no stain on it, but they put a protective coating to make it nice and smooth so I was happy about that as I thought I would have to stain it. The only mod I made was adding tall rubber "feet" to the bottom since it is living in the bathroom next to the shower I did not want water on the floor to destroy it. It did come with some padding on the bottom but not enough for a bathroom environment. The product came quickly and no damage.

Target Marketing Systems Montego Buffet

TMS Montego Buffet, EspressoI purchased this to do a coffee bar in my dining room (I saw it on Pinterest). I put a wire basket shelf with cup holders above it and it is really cute and handy to have everything together and off my kitchen counters. Buffet was very well made. Easy to put together with just a little reading and basic tool knowledge.

When this arrived, I took it out of the packaging and immediately noticed multiple chips and scrapes in the material. Luckily most of them were on the inside, however a few are on the front door. It's pretty cheap material and the color has a red tint to it...does not look "expresso" to me. I wouldn't recommend this if you are looking for a nice quality Buffet. It gets the job done if you are looking to spend less money.

Received the package just before 3pm this afternoon. After reading all of the reviews here, I first unpacked all the pieces and then reviewed the directions and checked the parts. Both the box and styrofoam are cheap and flimsy, so I was surprised to find that none of the pieces were damaged. All the wood parts are clearly labeled with their part letters. The screws and other various parts are packed together in just a few bags with numerous part-letter stickers on each bag, but as long as you can count and match the parts to the picture chart in the directions it's easy to figure out which parts are which. The directions themselves are more pictures than words, but again, easy to understand. I had this completely built in less than an hour! The only part that I even had to think twice on was the two strips that go across the bottom and middle of the front; they have cams & wood dowels closer to one edge than the other and it matters which edge is up. My only real complaint is the glue on the part-letter stickers they could use something easier to remove!!

Overall, from unpacking to finished product, I am very happy with this buffet!

I had hope for this decently-priced buffet as I was planning on using it for a bar cabinet, and hope continued as it arrived in a relatively-timely manner (given the shipping was free). Too bad I opened the box...

First of all, as soon as I opened the box tiny bits of styrofoam scattered my apartment. Apparently this stuff was supposed to be padding the pieces of my purchase, but I guess having to clean up confetti is expected, right? Now time to inspect the pieces inside the box: so far, no real problem. I get [what I thought was] 1/3 of the way done and realize that some of wood pieces, which are black, had scuff marks all over them (namely, the visible part of the top of the buffet). Deciding to further inspect, I see that every visible piece with any kind of detailing (namely, the doors) has the paint chipped off where the corners join. Lovely, just lovely. Add in 5+ hours of construction time thanks to instructions that make IKEA look like detailed geniuses and you have yourself a fantastic experience.

Never making this mistake again, and you shouldn't either. I could've got something better at a yard sale. /rant

I will start this review with you don't always 'get what you pay for'.....sometimes it's less.

We are professional cabinetmakers, have been for over 30 yrs. If I can include a picture I will, but suffice it to say we design and produce some of the most high-end cabinets and furniture still made in the USA. Sometimes, I just need something that will 'do the trick' for a space in my home, and don't want to have the expense of buying my own product. This was the case hereI just needed a printer stand with storage for a craft area. We have had quite a bit of experience with IKEA pieces and other self assemble pieces with kids going to college, etc. Not to mention (although I already did) we are PROFESSIONALS in this area. Sohere is the review:

The parts showed up in the box well packed and on time. Upon opening the box, I got a good dose of what I call the China stench, just such a chemical-laden bunch of fumes from the box. Hoping this is not what your air is like in China, but it wouldn't surprise me. It did dissipate rather quickly, and unlike a few other Made in China things I have purchased in the past few years, it wasn't something that had to air out on the patio or in the garage for a few days to keep it from killing you. Second impression: There are A LOT of parts. Not to worry, there are instructions and we are professionals :)

This is NOT a piece you could assemble on your own. I'm just sayin'.....this is a 2 person project. 2 people with the patience of Job.

You will need wood gluestandard Elmers type of glue would suffice as well. A #3 Phillips head screwdriver. We also ended up needing our cordless drill, small phillips tips, a clamp and a wrench.

What I found to be the biggest draw-back of this piece was that the machining was sloppy, making the assembly fittings either too snug or too loose, and the fact that the cam-lock assembly fittings were SO CHEAP and such a soft and low grade metal that if you twist it just a little too hard the fitting itself just starts to open up and will not hold the male counterpart to draw the pieces together. Also, where the holes are for the dowels the holes were loose, not so much round as slightly a 'wallered-out oval' so the dowels do not stay perpendicular to the piece they are inserted in. If you are not using some sort of wood glue to help hold them in place, they will fall out when you try to assemble the piece, and the cheapo cam-lock assembly fittings may or may not actually lock onto the male part to hold it together. In the end, the glued dowels are the only real chance you have that this piece will stay together at all.

It took 2 (sometimes 3) of us a full 2 1/2 hours to put this thing together, and at a few points we were really ready to just send it back. For instancethere is a piece that runs horizontally across the back that hold the thing together as well as connects the 2 back pieces together. I'm gonna tell ya right nowjust forget putting in the camlock bolts into this piece and just go with the dowels, b/c the camlock bolts do not line up correctly, and this is where you will need pliers or a wrench to jerk these pieces back out, b/c one you have screwed them in, you cannot reverse that process.

Alsoput the door hinges onto the face frame before you put it on the cabinet, b/c otherwise you have to try to stuff yourself into a little black space to screw them on, and if you are not a contortionist you may find this difficult.

The overall *quality* is about what I expect, however you will never move this piece from one home or apt to another, I would be shocked if it would survive a move. Is it an OK printer stand? Sure. It's going to do what I need it to do. Since they do not give you any indication on how big the bottom opening isit is 8 inches high and the doors are 19 1/4 inch high. I have some baskets that look pretty cute on the bottom area, and there is an adjustable shelf you can put in the section where the doors are.

I have not purchased anything else from this company, and do not plan to. If I did not have space restrictions for the space where I am using this for a printer stand, I probably would have picked something else. Or just given up and sent this back.

For the record, my son solved the "World's Most Difficult Puzzle" in less time. Seriously.

Good Luck!

Triple Media Tower, holds 960 CDs

Prepac Black Triple-Width Wall Media Storage RackI ordered this unit to store my DVD collection, which is currently just under 300 titles. It has definitely helped to keep my media organized.

I like that the height of the shelves can be adjusted to fit CDs, DVDs, or even clamshell VHS cases. If the shelves are set to the height of a standard DVD box, the unit will fit five rows of DVDs -there will be a sixth row that is about the right height for standard CD jewel cases. At this height, you will have leftover shelving and hardware (the shelves are held in place with metal dowels) that I assume would come in handy if the unit were used for CDs, as you could then accomodate more rows of shelves.

The unit isn't difficult to put together. My only issue with the piece is its cumbersome distribution of weight. It's quite top-heavy. I actually had to screw picture framing hardware to both my wall and the back of the unit and tether the unit to the wall with wire to get it to stand upright. Before I did so, it would not stand straight on my carpeted floor with anything on the shelves. For the price, it works well and looks fine, but if you aren't prepared to do some engineering to hold the thing upright, it probably isn't the best product to buy.

I am very happy with this media storage unit. It was very easy to assemble and I had no problems with it tipping as mentioned in other reviews, even though I did not use the wall anchor provided. It is located on carpet and I did not have to use shims either. It holds all of my DVDs with room for my library to grow. I have well over 300 titles already. Would recommend this product to anyone. Very much worth what I paid for it.

This product although its not made like some of the other expensive media cases was a great buy for the money. I was able to fill more than 500 dvds and I didn't need to secure the tower (to make sure that it didn't tilt).

I think this is a great product. Love how it looks in the living room and that the shelf heights can easily be changed I use it to store DVDs, VHS, Blue-Ray discs and CD's. We did anchor it to the wall using the included hardware because we have a young child at home, but with that done, the case seems sturdy enough and was a good addition to help us stay organized. Other products were much more expensive but this one was a decent value.

I received the storage rack from UPS in a timely manner. The packaging was excellent! There were no damages because of the well thought out packaging of the product. It has clear assembly instructions and was easy to assemble. If you want a storage unit that can hold all of your DVDs, then this is the wall unit to get.

Stainless Steel Wall Shelf - 6 Inches Deep: 24"L

Stainless Steel Wall Shelf - 6 Inches Deep: 24'LMy old stove had a flat top at the back where I kept my salt and pepper shakers, etc. The new one is curved so I wanted a shelf between the top of the stove and the stove hood. This worked out great. It was easy to install and it is easy to clean. It is not so large as to get in the way of cooking. It is drop shipped from the manufacturer, Infra Corporation of Waterford Michigan, so it takes a little longer to come. I looked at the 30 inch shelf but it was way more expensive -don't know why that is.

the shelf was dented when received! I was able to pound out the dent and its hardly visible but still was not happy that they would send me a used or damaged product when i did not purchase it used or damaged! Rich

Arrived today. In perfect condition. No soldering bubbles, clean and shiny all over. What is particular of this shelf is it's narrow 6 inch depth. It goes over the stove without interfering with the vent. I can have my favorite condiments handy.

very nicely designed and they look great. however, they are a very light gauge SS (noted in the description) so they will bend and dent easily. personally, I think this item is ridiculously overpriced. if i picked it up in a restaurant supply store, i would expect to pay less than half of what they cost here.

The shelf is very nice, but it didn't come with any hardware/screws. We're going to have to find hardware to mount it with before we can put it up.
