Montego 4 shelf Bookcase

Montego 4 shelf Bookcase, HIGH, WALNUTI bought this piece directly from Home Decorators website a couple of weeks ago. It was delivered on time and well packaged, but there the positives ended.

This bookcase was made in Thailand, and the quality is just atrocious. The pre-drilled holes rarely lined up, the finish was one of the worst I've seen (I will have to take it out to the garage, sand it down good and paint it), but to make matters even worse, one of the side pieces was cracked and glued back together...I found that out while trying to get the wooden plugs in to cover the screws.

So for $79, I got a bookcase that is going to need all kinds of work and is going to look awful until I can get to it. Frankly, I'm not sure if it's even worth the effort. Honestly, a similar bookcase that I bought for $50 bucks from Big Lots several years ago was a much better piece.

Considering what I got from Home Decorators, I won't be shopping there again.

(I see now why this product is rated so highly on the Home Decorator's website. I left a very negative review for it in early February, and it was never posted. After the company contacted me by phone, they offered a substantial credit for this item. I appreciated that, however, I ended up contacting them AGAIN a few weeks later because the credit was never made. Nearly 8 weeks after my initial complaint, the credit was finally made.)

I wanted an open back bookcase for a laptop ( hooked to external monitor and keyboard on desk) a fax maxhine and a scanner. A few decorative items added of course. This is perfect for my needs.

I assumed the fit and finish would be similar to the Winsome Wood (all wood ) products. It is there are a couple of rough spots where additional planing is needed. Not a big deal to me and much preferred over the pressboard, laminate, cardboard products with perfect finishes. Just my preference. If i had paid twice the price I would have expected a near-perfect finish.

Assembly was very easy. The side panels are pre-assembled. The holes are adequately and properly drilled. I've read many reviews complaining of misaligned holes on numerous products. The secret if you are attaching a shelf with 2 holes on one side, start both screws and alternate turning the screws until they're in. If you screw one in all the way the other hole may be misaligned as the holes allow enough leeway to move the shelf from side-to-side a millimeter or two.

The espresso finish looks nice but that's just a personal preference.

I bought 2 of these bookcases. The first was rather hard to assemble, but the 2nd one went faster because of experience. Paint quality varied on different pieces. Happily, they look great, and seem quite sturdy.

I ordered one of these bookshelves to "try it out". I had been looking at a very similar bookshelf in the Ballard Designs" catalogue, and then the exact same one in the "Home Decorators" catalogue. This one was not only a LOT cheaper, but I got free shipping, which saved me $30 over Home Decorators catalogue. It went together with no worry, the wood was not scratched or marred in any way because they packed it really well. I ended up ordering another tall, and two short bookcases of the same type, and I feel like I got a real bargain. The 4 of them are tucked into a little weird nook that I had in the TV room, and they are holding many books and knick-knacks that were sitting in boxes because I had no space for them. These are sturdy enough for my purposes, and they look lovely against a cream painted wall with dark wood floors. I almost never write reviews on the products I buy from Amazon, but I wanted to let other people know that, for the cheap price, these bookcases are anything but cheap. They are great

Five Tier Vertical Bamboo Shelf in Natural

Five Tier Vertical Bamboo Shelf in NaturalThis shelving is deceptively stable even though it appears rather whimpy. I use it in a bathroom to hold several pool towels and other outdoor necessities. It was EXTREMELY EASY to assemble. I think it took me about 10 minutes to unwrap and assemble it. The only comment that I have regarding it's appearance is that the bamboo being a natural material has some irregularities by nature. I found nothing that was unacceptable.

I'm overall very happy with these shelves. They went together easily, fit perfectly in the small space between a wall and the shower, and look nice.

With only a vanity cabinet and a small window ledge this was perfect for my need of extra storage space in the bathroom.

There was a problem with one corner of one shelf while putting it together. Either it was already cracked or, in my opinion, the screw hole was badly drilled not very deep. I wasn't using unusual force or anything. In fact, very little as I was rotating around the whole shelf putting in all the screws just a little bit at time.

Anyways, this screw didn't go in very far before it started splitting the corner of the shelf. The other 19 no problem. I haven't checked with them yet. I certainly don't want to send the whole thing back. It's actually fine without that screw, and if it comes down to it, I'll just get some wood filler. But hopefully I can talk them into send me just one shelf preferrably with all 4 holes drilled to depth.

Because of the price I was skeptical about putting this product next to the $800 bamboo vanity in my new bathroom remodel, but it looks great. It is solid, accomodates the colored storage boxes for supplies on three shelves,rolled towels on one, and a candle on top. Also, it fits my space well and I saved $400 on the one that matched the vanity.

This stand was delivered within a week and assembled easily. The natural wood look blends in anywhere. I added felt pads on the bottom legs to protect the laminate floor.

Lynk Professional 430021 Roll-Out Lid/Tray Organizer 7-by-21-by-9-Inches, Chrome

Lynk Professional 430021 Roll-Out Lid/Tray Organizer 7-by-21-by-9-Inches, ChromeVery happy to find this roll-out lid/tray organizer. It was a perfect solution to my deep, under the counter cabinets where everything seems to get lost in the back.

Pros:

This unit was very easy to install and I am not the "do it yourself" type. Comes with clear and simple instructions. Instructions include words and visuals. All you need is a Philips screwdriver and a drill with a Phillips screwdriver bit. First you attach the pot lid holder loops to the top/sliding base. These are simple finger nuts that you tighten with the provided tool. Next you use the easy placement guide to find the correcting mounting placement for your base. This is a cardboard piece that folds over the lip of your shelf and assures that once mounted and put together, your cabinet drawers will close. You then use your drill with a Phillips screwdriver bit and attach it to the bottom of your shelf using the four provided wood screws. Finally you attach the top sliding part with 4 screw and a hand Phillips screwdriver. It is recommended that you don't use your power screwdriver or drill for this step. Don't worry. This is easy to do with a hand screwdriver. My 8 year old even helped. That's it. You are done! Took me about 30 minutes to install and that included emptying out the cabinet first.

Nice, heavy duty ball baring slides. Movement is smooth and easy, even with it fully loaded with my cast iron pot lids.

Whole thing is well made and heavy duty. Nice looking chrome. Put together it is solid and sturdy. Very glad I purchased this instead of a cheaper wire one. This will not bend or brake with my heavy cast iron pot lids.

Curved handle at the front of the rack makes it easy to pull out and push back into your cabinet.

Cons:

Yes, it does not extend fully like other models. It extends out about 3/4 of the way. Still works for my us, but this might be a deal breaker to some.

If you have a repositionable/removable shelf and you want to mount this unit to it, you will need to buy an L bracket or two and attach the shelf to the back wall/cabinet. Again an easy fix, but if you don't do this little extra step, when you pull out the organizer the weight shifts on your shelf and the back of the shelf comes up, tilting the whole shelf forward.

This unit claims it hold up to 18 lids. I guess it is possible if they are smaller lids, fully loaded mine is able to hold 3 large lids, 4 medium lids, and 2 small lids, for a total of 9 lids. All of my lids have handles including about half having loop handles as opposed to knob handles.

Claims you should have 2 inches of clearance on each side of the tray when the rack is placed on the top. Because my lids have loop handle, I have several larger lids, and because of the inside mounting hardware of my cabinet doors, I found it was best to place it about 4 inches from the inside wall. The correct placement of your organizer will depend what you are going to store on it and the mounting hardware of your cabinet doors.

I always dreaded digging around for the right size pan/pot lid. Even with an inexpensive wire organizer, I hated trying to pull out my lid without upsetting the other lids. We recently added several good-quality pull out organizers (Lynx and Rev-a-Shelf) that have changed a semi-functional kitchen into a space and patience saver. This lid organizer glide rights out, and holds six big glass Calphalon lids without trouble. Although the Lynx organizers are more expensive, there is a substantial quality difference between them and the cheaper stuff. You'll recognize the difference the first time you use it.

Lynk Professional is one of the few products worthy of the description. It looks and feels like a piece of furniture; no wobbling, no sticking. I'm only somewhat handy, but this was easy to install with the clear, foolproof instructions (visuals and words), individually packaged pieces and tools, and included guide for placement. The only additional tool I needed was a cordless drill for the starter holes.

Important Note: You'll need 2" of clearance on both sides of the drawer. I have the space but didn't notice if it was in the description here.

These folks have done DIY right. I won't buy any other brand for this type of need. I purchased this and the under-sink drawer, which is equally terrific.

I used to keep all my lids on the kitchen counter...this roll-out organizer allowed me to store them out of sight and keep my kitchen neat. I have a fairly small kitchen so making the most out of every inch and good organization are key to keep it functional and looking good.

This is a very sturdy product, super easy to install and I absolutely love it!

Want Lynk Professional 430021 Roll-Out Lid/Tray Organizer 7-by-21-by-9-Inches, Chrome Discount?

I wanted to organize my kitchen cabinets. Make my life easier.

Installation was a breeze.

One weld away from perfection. I loaded all my pot lids; three in all. Tried to push lid organizer back into the cabinet and it would not budge. Being the patient character that I am I tried again. No way. After checking to see what was the matter I saw that one of the welds on the cross pieces had not held and was jamming the mechanism.

I got free shipping on this item (whatever that means) so I wasn't going to send it back so I fixed it myself. As long as no more welds break I will love this product for years to come.

22" Wal Corner Shelf

22' Wal Corner Shelf
  • Creative Connectors #6000172 22" Wal Corner Shelf
  • CREATIVE CONNECTORS CORP

After a little trouble installing the first of four of these shelves, it got better and they are great. They look great, are sturdy and is much, much better than another set of bookshelves. We had a small corner where we wanted to install and run all of our cable boxes, dvd player, etc. This worked great because there is a small cutout in the back of each shelf that makes this perfect for just that. We couldn't be happier with our purchase. We installed in brick, which was a bit trickier, and you have to measure carefully, but good to go!

great simple shelf. strong and large enough to hold my blu-ray and satellite box. very simple install. i had a concern during install, called the number, and a real person answered the phone and helped me out. i had my questions answered immediately, and then i had the shelf installed in 10 minutes. you can't go wrong with this shelf. i would recommend to anyone. you do not have to be a master with tools to install it; the directions walk you through the process step by step.

I would give it 5 stars if it's of better quality for the price I paid. It came with some nicks before I even installed anything. But I'm going to keep it because I don't want to go thru the hassle of returning and all. Also, the color was walnut, it looks beautifully polished and the nicks were less noticeable. Though I'm afraid to put heavy things on it (not sure if it can hold 100 lbs as promised).

Want 22" Wal Corner Shelf Discount?

I bought this shelf along with the 16" and 12" shelves for my son's nursery. This shelf is huge! I needed at least one of the shelves to fit a small stereo that measured about 14" end to end. I was pretty sure the 16" one would suffice but wanted a set of 3 so bought the 22" as well. The stereo fit fine on the 16" and the 22" one I am using for books and I love it! All of his books fit on it and there's even room left for a few stuffed animals. The color is a deep chocolately brown (what I would describe as "Espresso"). The shelves were just as easy to install as the description claims which surprised me!. Use a level and preferably a second set of hands and you'll be all set! They really do look like they are floating in the corner of the room. My only complaint is that just installing them caused a few knicks and scratches. nothing all that noticeable and if I had installed them with someone else I may have been able to avoid causing them but nonetheless, they are not solid hardwood so be careful! Overall, very pleased!

I installed this myself in less than 30 minutes. It would definitely be easier with two people, so you have someone to help hold up the shelf for drawing lines, and also fo sliding it into the brackets. I'm short, and because of the location of installation I had to lift it above shoulder level. It is very heavy and sturdy. You have to be careful not to tighten the screws too tight or the wood brackets will split. These could have been made of metal to be more stable in the long run. I just hope it stays secure. I only plan to use it for decorative items, nothing very heavy like a t.v. or stereo. I like the open space at the back of the shelf that enables you to slide a power cord through so you can keep a lamp or other electronic equipment on the shelf. Overall this is a great shelf. and it's a nice way to able to use the corner spaces in my rooms.

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.

John Louis Home Wire Basket, 24-Inch Wide by 12-Inch Depth

John Louis Home JLH-733 Wire Basket, 24-Inch Wide by 12-Inch Depth by 12-Inch HeightPurchased these to go with two JL closet organizers and JL deluxe towers of shelves for a master bedroom closet. Baskets include all needed hardware to install your choice of two ways, either hanging from an existing shelf, or mounted within a tower designed to hold 24" wide shelves.

Assembled and installed fairly easily. I got two wire baskets, and installed one each way (hanging off the bottom of the tower and one installed inside the tower unit in place of a hard to reach lower shelf). Function is wonderful and I think the whole unit is really attractive when completed.

It took us about a day and a half to install all the components we purchased, but we also had to do a good bit of modification to make the units fit an "L" shaped closet and fit into corners. Baskets by themselves installed in under 30 minutes. Well worth the several thousand dollar savings we achieved by doing it ourselves instead of using the finish carpenter's bid!

You could probably use these with other closet systems by modifying or using other mounting hardware. We did pull out a hacksaw and chop a bit off of two mounting brackets to achieve a better fit in a tight space.

These wire baskets are great if you purchase the canvas sack that goes along with them. They hold a ton of laundry and the glides work really well.

Buy John Louis Home Wire Basket, 24-Inch Wide by 12-Inch Depth Now

I have a John Louis closet system and tower in my closet, but still used a hamper that took up a good amount of floor space in the middle of the closet. I bought two of the 24x12x20 baskets with the intention of installing one at the bottow of the tower and one at the bottom of the shelves I installed with the system. Installing to the tower was very quick, took maybe 10 minutes to drill and hang the brackets for the basket and it slid right in. The shelves that came with the closet system were about 1 inch too short to install the 2nd basket so I ended up putting the 2nd basket above the 1st. They work great and glide smoothly, I recommend the canvas bags as well.

Winsome Terrace 3 Tier 37 in. Wide Storage Shelf

Winsome Terrace Storage Shelf 3-Tier Wide in Espresso, 37-InchI just needed bookshelf to organize books and paperwork. This one was nice because it was 30" tall so it sits level with my desk.

I ordered this table and was so excited to get it as it would work perfect for my space. I received it & opened the box and realized a piece was broken in 1/2. Sent it back through Amazon.com which was easy. Got a replacement 2 days later. Opened that box and again..... the same piece was broken in 1/2. Either they do not know how to package or they're stuff is crap!! I didn't have the patience to try for a 3RD TIME and find out.

This shoe rack has definitely come in handy for 20 pairs of my shoes. The only thing I don't like about it is that I have a lot of heels and they fall at times when I'm trying to remove one pair. It's not the most sturdy thing you'll ever have, but it does its job, overall.

It makes my room look so much tidier than when I used to line my shoes up against my wall. Holds about four pairs of shoes on each shelf, five if you have small shoes or stack one pair on top of each other. With sneakers, I can't see someone getting five pairs in across a shelf.

Newport 60" Low Profile TV Stand

Crosley Furniture Newport 60-Inch Low Profile TV Stand, BlackFurniture was packaged very well, but top front of stand still had chips from shipping. The entire thing isn't hardwood. The two main pieces and doors are hardwood, but the other pieces are partical board. Would have liked a little better quality for the price, but overall a good purchase an the stand looks great.

Excellent quality for the money. Instructions have three places where they do not tell you to use certain screws to

put the stand together. I would suggest you read through and look at the pictures and pull out the screws and check

over with the instructions including the pictures before putting this together. Back panels have to go in with the small

holes at the top of the stand. The beveled glass is a wonderful touch. If purchasing to put stereo equipment inside

please measure your equipment, with lines sticking out the back because we could not get ours to fit inside the side

doors on either side of the glass. But we're keeping the piece and very, very happy with the purchase. Cherry color

is right on target and it looks like an expensive piece of furniture. We shopped stores locally and they same item was

in the$600 to $700 range. And this looks and feels better than those.

I never saw a a product that was shipped to me triple boxed with plenty of foam to protect the contents. The TV stand looks great. The doors do fit a little tight, but will see what the winter brings. And just one word of caution, when putting the doors on be sure to get them into the correct holes on the first try. I got one stuck in another hole on the underside of the door frame and took a special dentist type tool to get it back out. Overall a great purchase.

Alexandria 60" Low Profile TV Stand

Crosley Furniture Alexandria 60-Inch Low Profile TV Stand, Classic CherryI really like the look of this tv stand, especially for the price. It shipped quickly and was well packaged. Assembly instructions were easy to follow and I had it put together in about 2 hours. The only disappointment is that after a couple of weeks with my 60" Panasonic Plasma TV sitting on it, I noticed the cabinet top starting to sag in the middle, probably at least a half inch lower than at the ends. I don't think there is enough vertical support in the middle or the cabinet top is not strong enough to hold a 95 pound tv with most of the weight centered on the stand.

This is not only a gorgeous TV stand, but is a beautiful piece of furniture for my living room. I ordered the 60" stand and with my 40" TV, it looks great. I was worried about putting it together myself, but I lucked out and was able to have someone else put it together for me. It was well packed and in perfect condition. It also had wonderful readable instructions. I would highly recommend this item to anyone looking for a beautiful, functionable piece of furniture.

This item was very well packed and all pieces were flawless. The instruction manual was easy to follow and written in large print. All the hardware was present. It is a very good looking piece and very functional. Be sure to measure all your equipment so that it fits into the cabinet. It is not very deep and some of the older pieces such as older DVD players may not fit. The assembly took about an hour and a half, not including the unpacking which takes at least 30 minutes due to the excellent packing job. The assembly went smoothly due to the well-written instruction manual. It will take another 15 minutes to hook up all your equipment, so you are looking at approximately a two hour job. It is well worth it when you see how nice this piece looks. It is really good looking and I would recommend this item to any one.

The unit arrived very well packagedin fact two boxesone huge one for the body of the TV stand and one small box for the ball feet... both well protected and no damage at all to the unit. The shipper arrived on the day I chose within the five hour window.

I was excited about this piece of furniture because the manufacturer claims "Solid hardwood and veneer construction". In fact, it is largely composition wood and veneers. The doors are solid but that appears to be the extent of it. Quite typical of most every other piece of "asembly required" furniture, it seems.

The color of the wood stain is uniform throughout and, with a light furniture polishing, it has a wonderful rich tone. The table top appears to be cherry-stained oak or ash.

Assembly was straight-forward and rather effortless. The directions were simple and clearly illustrated. This reviewer assembled the unit solo in just under two hours. All parts alligned up well and fit together perfectly.

Because wood glue was not used, as hoped, (the glue-able joints weren't solid wood), I am hoping the cams hold securely. (Just will remember not to attempt to lift it by the top!)

As a piece of furniture, though, it is well designed and very attractive, and the photos reflect its true appearance. It fits perfectly in the area we intended for it, It is attractive, functional and, hopefully the materials will last for as long as if made of solid wood.

Had it been actually solid wood through out, it would have been wonderful, but at the price it is offered, it is a good deal.
