Suncast Shed Accessory Kit With Corner Shelf, Loft, Bracket with Hooks

Suncast Shed Accessory Kit With Corner Shelf, Loft, Bracket with HooksIts two corner shelves, a loft shelf, and three hooks... just what it says. Makes it really nice to store outdoor cushions in the loft shelf (what else you would use it for is beyond me because not much else would fit other then four cushions, I dont know how they fit a cooler in the picure it must be minisucle because mine wouldnt fit). The plastic L corner shelves are nice but plastic and not really sturdy. They hold my three year olds toys nice but anything beyond a couple of gallons of bubbles and some outdoor nonsense would have a problem, I see twenty pounds at most on these shelves. The bracket and hooks are really nice and heavy duty, too bad the wall of the shed cant support the weight these hooks are rated at. I was originally going to use the bracket with two of the hooks to hand a bike against the wall, forget it. The wall would warp terribly in under a month if it was even able to support it at all. The hooks would hold maybe an extension cord, a shovel, or broom really nice but not much else.

Its a couple of plastic shelves, a wire loft shelf, and three hooks. If I paid fifty bucks Id say its great but for a hundred bucks its kinda ridiculous and obvious that they get away charging it because its your only resource for shelving if you get a suncast shed.

Its the same price everywhere, I bought it at Amazon because the shipping was free and they ship it pretty quick. So if you are gonna invest a hundred bucks on plastic and wire this is the best place to do it. I have no complaints with Amazon as everyone is asking the same price for this stuff, I really just think for what it is it really should be a cheaper.

Love this shed. It is the perfect size. We have it on our deck next to the house. We got the loft for chair cushions and the chairs slide in real nice. I have buckets and misc. stuff in there. Have plenty of room. Easy installation if you read instructions.

Its a great product, but read the manufactures' site about what works for your shed and doesn't.

When I ordered this 'package' it said it couldn't be used for three sheds, but when I went back to the manufactures' site, those 3 and MINE (for the loft storage)! I am going to use the loft storage elsewhere as I haven't been able to figure out how to ask the order to be split into three items so I could return the one.

I purchase this specifically for my Suncast Resign shed as recommended. It does not work in my shed, returning it.

Arbora Teak Wood Outdoor Serving Cart

Arbora Teak Wood Outdoor Serving CartMy wife was estatic to get this tea cart for Christmas. She has been wanting one for years and years. It fits in the alloted space in our dining room and blends in, colorwise, with the varnished oak furniture in the living room where it will be deployed. Construction is solid and heavy and it should serve well for a lifetime. The purchase on Amazon was easy and the delivery was fast with arrival occuring well before Christmas.

Soup Can Rack in Chrome from Organize It All

Organize It All Can RackI freely confess, I'm another one who thought at first glance that this item was overpriced. At one time in the misty past, I had something similar in the white plastic coated wire you see nowadays as shelving, only much flimsier. That product lasted all of a month or so before collapsing completely. Talk about not worth the price you paid!

The Chrome Pantry Can Goods Rack is one of the better purchases I've made in the last year. I tried a few other solutions before buying this one because I was concerned about the price. Inexpensive lazy susans and tiered can shelves didn't what I needed: Organize a few cans of each type together, where I could see what I had at a glance. Many of the competitors are poorly made, and like my old white wire version, they fall apart easily, spilling cans everywhere. Some are poorly sized, like the tiered "can shelving" I bought that couldn't actually hold cans! And some just aren't suited to anything smaller than a 6 person family, like alternatives I've seen recommended here on Amazon, where you're intended to have 10 or more of any one kind of canned food. That's just too much for this two person household to store.

This pantry organizer is a perfect storage device if you a.) Like quality built products; b.) Keep around 5 of any given canned item on hand at a time; and c.) don't want to be limited by the size of the cans you prefer. This unit can hold a tremendous amount without bending in the least, and it doesn't matter what type of cans you have. There's space for them all! The "wire" is heavy gauge, and the chrome hasn't chipped or flaked in 3 months of regular use.

The only disadvantage would be overall size. To make a unit like this as sturdy as possible, you sacrifice the flexibility of making the width of the whole device adjustable, as it is on some lesser products. If you have small shelves, either by width, height, or depth, you'll want to measure carefully to ensure you have enough room for this rack.

But if you have enough room, I can't say enough good things about it. This really helped alleviate a lot of irritation I had with my pantry. I only wish I could find other organizational products that worked this well for every part of my house.

Really nice sturdy product. Great for storing cans. But make certain you have room in your pantry for it. When people say its HUGE they mean it.

Its 18" wide, 12" deep and 10" tall. Not everyone has that much space in their cupboard.

If you are tired of buying canned food you already have, but couldn't find in your pantry until you bought more, or if you have trouble fitting your canned goods on your shelves, this product is a must! It is very sturdy, and has separators, so you can make it work with multiple sizes of cans. If you have space, I would get two for a family of three or more. This item holds a lot of weight in a small space, so make sure you put it on a sturdy shelf. I have a wired shelf pantry, and the unit rests just fine on it's own front and back horizontal metal bars, instead of the feet, as shown in the picture.

It is sturdy, easy to put together and the cans roll well. Works good for my house because I buy a few of each type at a time...not a dozen....so I really didnt need a rotater.

I'm giving it 4 stars because it only comes with 6 dividers so the picture is a bit misleading. I ended up using three dividers on the bottom shelf which included small tomato paste cans and short pineapple cans. That meant only one divider on the top shelf. Not really a problem though because I'm ordering another one ;-)

The dimensions stated in the listing are NOT the correct product dimensions. We ordered three of these and cannot use any of them because they are not the size we thought they were. Sending them back. The ones I got were 17.75" wide, 12.75" tall, and 14.75" deep. Too bad, because they seem like a decent product that we could use if they were the right size.

Winsome Wood Drop-Leaf Kitchen Cart

Winsome Wood Drop-Leaf Kitchen CartI bought this kitchen cart because the two drop leaves come down when not in use, but completely opens up to a usable extra counter space when needed. One or two people can lift up one or both of the drop leaves and eat off the newly created 'table top' if you have bar stool height chairs to sit on. The wheels are very heavy duty and easy to roll around where needed. It was easy enough to put together, but at times it helps to have another person hold up a piece or use another piece of furniture to help hold up an end while trying to screw certain pieces together. You have to pay attention that all pieces stay square as you proceed to screw the whole thing together. I didn't have to adjust or cut anything to make it fit. The top was not oiled well, so I bought tung oil and re-applied to the entire top. The manufacturer suggests you oil every once in awhile to keep water from warping the wood. It took the oil well and I got all the missed areas. The drawer is a nice size and can hold utensils and boxed plastic storage bags. The cabinet area is spacious and can fit pots and pans, canned or boxed goods, etc..

This butcher block is nothing short of wonderful. It is both beautiful and functional; the outside leaves are a cinch to pull up, and designed well so that they stay up, stay completely steady, and are able to hold considerable weight. The drawer and small cabinet beneath have been extremely useful, as is the open space between the top and the cabinets. The hardware is surprisingly nice, and the little towel rack on the back is handy. It looks much more expensive than it is. Now, for the down-side. Yes, assembly is both confusing, frustrating, and difficult. It comes with a couple of pages that must be deciphered, but, if taken slowly, and patiently, can be figured out. It absolutely takes two people to assemble it, and even then it can feel like acrobatics at a few points. There was a time or two my fiancé and I truly believed that it was not going to fit together. Still, despite the 45 minutes or so of figuring the pictures out and a few circus moves, it was all more than worth it. (If I would have thought of it at the time, I would have put easy to follow directions online, and it may not be too late.) Once again, though, I will say that the short time of frustration was nothing against the pleasure and usefulness this product has provided. The legs and top are made of solid wood, and as I mentioned, the handles are a classy, elegant brushed metal. One word of caution as to assembly: when you hammer in the wheels, don't let the exhilaratiosteal of finally rounding that last assemblage curve steal your focus. Stay mindful, because only two of the wheels lock, and you will want them placed diagonally to one another if you want to lock the cart in place. (In other words, learn from our mistake.) This is a good buy, and has been both a life saver and an esthetic improvement for our kitchen. I recommend it highly!

Despite the very critical reviews I purchased this product because of the excellent design. I ordered from Amazon and immediately checked the parts against the part list. ...It was like winning the lottery; all the parts were included.

This should be advertised as a "green product". No trees died to create this cart. Recycled wood was cleaned and expertly jointed (mated). So, grain and color may vary a bit but there's real craftsmanship in the process.

Assembly took my wife and I just over an hour. I did check the fit of each part before fastening. I did have to trim one set of dowel pegs as they were too long to permit a tight fit. I am so pleased that every screw hole lined up perfectly. No problem with assembly. .... At one point I wound string between a pair of legs as a temporary clamp which can easily be done by anyone lacking an additional set of hands to hold things in place.

The cart looks great. For an additional $800 you could have a cart made from new wood, but that's not necessary. The price (from Amazon with free shipping) is right. I am thinking of ordering a second cart for camp.

Cart recieved damaged was left on my porch in a box that fell apart. Someone noted the damages on the side of the box, but delivered it anyway.

Did not get help from vendor, manufacturer or shipping company.

Parts were cracked and there was no assembly instructions in the package again recieved no help from vendor or manufacturer. There are no instructions online either.

Nice cart with quality wood, casters, etc. Looks like it will hold up to heavy duty use. I purchased it to put a small charcoal grill on top. One problem, it did not ship with instructions nor are there online instructions.

Organize It All Ebonize 4-Tier Shelf in Espresso

Organize It All Ebonize 4-Tier Shelf in EspressoI ordered this shelf for my bathroom to store towels on. I live in Germany and lets just say houses here don't have much storage at all. I wanted something that wasn't an eye sore but still did the trick. This shelf did just that! It was super easy to assemble and only took a few min. It has a sleek look that goes with any home décor. I will be ordering more for the kitchen and second bath. Great product and great price. It also made it from the states all the way to Germany in half the time expected.

Whitmor 6060-3510 Chrome Supreme 50 Pair Shoe Rack

Whitmor 6060-3510 Chrome Supreme 50 Pair Shoe RackWhen it came time to replace my small 20-shoe organizer, I needed something sturdy. Specifically, I hated organizers where the horizontal bars were simply plugged into the vertical on either side because as the rack fills up with shoes, the weight causes the horizantal bars to sag and come off on either end sending all your shoes down into a pile!

This chrome shoe tower by Whitmore was the answer! Everything is metallic and you securely screw down the horizontal bars on either side to the vertical bars. At the bottom, it has wheels to help you move around. An added bonus is that the horizontal bars where your shoes rest, have a somewhat rough surface to increase friction, thus, your shoes stay in place!

I love it. Not a single complaint. Oh yeah, and it holds a ton of shoes too!

This rack was very easy to put together, and with a electric screwdriver it was quick. It's very sturdy and the casters (which you don't have to use) make it just glide over the floor. When you want to park it simply apply the caster's brakes. It really does hold 50 pairs of shoes. I was able to easily get 5 pairs on each of the 10 shelves. Also, this exact same rack sells at another store for $20.00 more. I'm so glad I checked on Amazon before buying it there, and it arrived much quicker than quoted in the shipping terms. Its so nice to get a high quality product and not feel cheated. Recommendation: BUY IT!

Im so happy I got this stand. Its so much better then the plastic 50 pair shoe rack that I had before which fell apart after 3 months. This needed no extra tape, is easy to put up, and I can put heavy shoes and boots on it. And I love the wheels!

The spacing between racks is too small. A lot of my shoes are basketball sneakers with mid and high cuts. These don't fit well and end up interfering with the rack above them. I uploaded a picture that shows this. Shoes of this type either need to be placed on the top rack or you can skip racks, which reduces the overall storage capacity. For low cut shoes however, the rack works well. The quality seems good and assembly was simple and quick. I just wish there was more space between racks.

It does hold lots of shoes and it is sturdy. (Especially if comparing to the ones with the plastic sides that deform and drop all the shoes). My only complaint was that when it arrived it had to of the welds broken on the support pieces for the rods. These broken welds were at 2 different supports.

I'm unsure if this is due to poor manufacture or shipping damage as it was packed in a box that was 4 times to tall for this product and wasn't properly padded to fill up the extra space.

I'm not going to return the product. I'll just rough up the surface where the broken welds occurred and use some JB weld. While it won't look as good as knew it will function and probably be stronger at those 2 points than the original welds.

It's kind of nice to be able to wheel this rack out of the way if you need too. It also holds lots of shoes. I wasn't expecting it to deal as well as it did with all the work boots I put on it too.

So, it would have gotten 4 stars but had to deduct a star for me having to do a repair on a new item.
