HyLoft 80842-10 Ceiling Storage Kit

HyLoft 80842-10 Ceiling Storage KitI bought 4 of these (2 sets) to store my obnoxiously large stock of scrap trim lumber.

Pros

Very sturdy design. Will easily support any amount of lumber I shove up there. Not as much wiggle, side to side\front to back as I've seen in similar products.

value Good price for as stout as these are.

Cons

The only place I would ding this product is the install guide. It tells you to attach the end pieces to the joists first and then assemble by connecting the remaining four pieces. Unless you are very precise with your meansurements, you'll be out or square (requiring you to twist the final assembly to join the pieces) and while the width is adjustable, the holes are 1" apart meaning you'll likely have to bend the unit a little to align the holes. Instead, I recommend attaching one end leaving the lag screws loose (about 1" protruding from the joist), assemble the unit, put the other end up to the joist, mark the holes, pre-drill and screw in.

I needed a storage solution for spare lumber that was leaning against the walls in my garage. This was it. I purchased two pair and plan to order a third. They're easy to install, very sturdy and the adjustable height and width make them a fit for almost any space. Thanks HyLoft! You've done it again.

Several pieces arrived with small amounts of rust. Easy enough to hang and put together. I don't think I'd buy it again.

This product is just what I need to suspend my three-piece kayak in my gargage for winter storage. I ordered four sets of them. The first one took a little to put together and installed on my gargage ceiling, but after that it is easy. I most difficult part in the installation is locating the joist and aligning the brackets correctly.

The product wasn't as sturdy as I had expected, all pieces went together ok, but when fully assembled it didn't feel very solid. I wouldn't put 200 lbs as advertised on it?

AtticMaxx Shelving System - Set of 8 Attic Truss Storage Shelves

AtticMaxx Shelving System - Set of 8 Attic Truss Storage ShelvesI didn't need any more Rubbermaid boxes cluttering my attic floor ~ I needed somewhere to securely stack them, and AtticMaxx is IT! Not only did I buy (and easily install) a set in my home, I sent a set to my in laws in the South, who do not have a basement.

Maximizes unused space efficiently. Wish I would've thought of it!

Easy to install. Very practical and light weight. Managed to only use 4 shelves so far. So 4 more to install, hmmm what else can I put up there?

41273 Wood Boat Shelf Set Of 3- Purposeful Stylish Nautical Deco

41273 Wood Boat Shelf Set Of 3- Purposeful Stylish Nautical DecoI ordered these for my grandson's ocean themed bedroom and they fit the decor perfectly. They hold his trinkets, books and favorite stuffed toys nicely and were easy to mount safely on the walls. Unfortunately they were not well packaged. The smaller boats nested in the larger one easily but there was absolutely no padding around the large boat and it was damaged in shipping.Fortunately the damage was a relatively easy fix with a little wood glue and clamps but check them well when you receive them if you are not interested in doing repairs on your own.

Read the reviews before purchasing and the product was as described. Very cute, but two of the pieces arrived broken. They are still useable, but it's a bit disappointing.

18 Pocket Panel Bins

Safco Model 18 Pocket Panel Bins, BlackMy son has lots of small toys (marbles, action figures, cards). They would fall through the holes of the baskets on his storage unit, so he stacked them on the floor or on his dresser. I ordered this set of panel bins and he could not be happier. His small toys have never been so neat. I was worried that they would stick out too far on his wall, but they don't.

Venture Horizon Media Storage Tower-Tall Single

Venture Horizon Media Storage Tower-Tall SingleI bought this media tower from Stacks and Stacks, for about 140 shipped. Definitely one of the more affordable designs to hold a fairly large media collection.

The look of the product is great, as long as you fill it full of DVDs. Leaving this tower empty will expose the cheap-looking backing to any guests. I have read from other reviews on other sites that the shelves bowed under the weight of DVDs, but during assembly, I noticed an optional step to prevent bowing, and it works fine. The shelves are very thin, but for holding up DVDs, I've had no problems so far. Overall the tower is not as sturdy as I'd hoped, but for the purpose of holding DVDs, it's fine. The tower takes up very little room and hugs the wall; it is very compact and to the point.

One small problem though is the side edging strips: they overhang and block the very last DVD on each side, I might just end up putting empty cases on each end to make sure I don't "lose" any of my DVDs.

So, to sum it up:

Pros:

-Fairly affordable for the storage capacity

-Sleek, tall, wall-hugging design takes up very little excess space

-Comes with straps to attach to wall (If you're in an "earthquake zone" as the instructions suggest)

-The black model looks nice, fits almost any decor (not sure how the oak or other finishes would look)

Cons:

-Overall not as sturdy as many would like, though this is not much of a problem if the instructions are followed and shelves are "locked in"

-Side overhangs block off about an inch of shelf space

I bought this unit because it fit the space I had perfectly and held my entire collection. Unfortunately when I assembled the unit and set it up the shelves could not hold the weight if the CDs and noticeably sag, even with two clips holding the shelves from the back. The construction is mostly a vinyl picture over low quality particle board (lots of furniture is constructed of particle board but I have never run across a unit where the pieces bend so easily before assembly, about the lowest quality I've seen) To add insult to injury the holes drilled in the unit for the for placing shelves don't match all the way up the unit and the top shelf isn't level. The top and bottom board seem to be real veneer and are thick enough to hold their shape and are about the only parts that appear to be of reasonably quality. The rest of the kit is junk. They must have photographed the tower laying down on it is back because this shelves can't even hold their own weight.

This product was a little difficult to put together, but it looks nice and doesn't take up a lot of room. The major flaw is that the shelves are two thin and do not support the DVDs very well. I do not suggest putting box sets on the shelves because they make them bend.

I have lots of DVD, CD & some VHS tapes. I needed a tall storage unit (space efficient). I ordered a cherry one. Got the shipment is about one week. Here what I found in the package for what I paid $170. The bottom, top & sides are 1/2 inch MDF all the rest of the items are wood pulp ( really cheap). I was really surprized when I found the shelves, they are 1/4 inch wood pulp boards. Really flimsy. When I loaded them with DVDs they bowed heavily. Really disappointed. It took me about an hour to put it together. I am really handy so it was not much of a challenge, but if you are not handy you mileage may vary. Be careful when you put the paper thin backboard on to the center back support. Make sure the right sides installed as marked (Blue & Red). If you messed this up then the supporting holes for the shelves will not align and the shelves will be not be levelled. I have to set a level before I screwed them in. Be careful the supporting board is made of wood pulp so once you screwed the screws you are done. It really sucks. Overall , it is an extremely cheap product and it even does not do what it is designed for, i.e. support the DVD on its shelves. I searched the web and look for solid wood items, for about $100.00 more you should be able to find a much better product. It is not recommended.

The product is, as it was described. However, the quality of the product falls far short of my expectations. I was trying to match my 2 existing IKEA shelves as my DVD collection has grown and I needed a 3rd shelf. IKEA no longer carries the model I wanted so I had to look elsewhere--thus this purchase. It will suffice, but the value is about 1/3 of the actual price I paid. To make it more of an insult, they claim the list price was $242 and were selling it for $169. My IKEA shelves were $89 each--same size but considerably better quality. I will be keeping the shelf, because it does hold my excess DVD's. If I were to have seen it in person, I would not have bought it. It did assemble very easily, as had been described and it was well packaged--thus my "2" rating. The quality was the difference between a "2" and a "5".

Do yourself a favor--visit an IKEA store or search them out online.

Furinno 99634EX/BK 3-Tier Multipurpose Storage Display Rack/Shelf

Furinno 99634EX/BK 3-Tier Multipurpose Storage Display Rack/ShelfSome of the connectors from the plastic poles that hold the shelves together snapped off, so I wrote to Furinno to get replacements. Their website offers customer service for questions and missing pieces and provides an email address, so I hoped they would just sell us some extra poles. They did answer promptly, but here is their reply, verbatim. Draw your own conclusions.

"Thank you for interested in our item. We are sorry to let you know that we do not have extra parts for selling. All of our items come as is, prepack in box already."

I ordered this item on 4-12-13 and Del. on 4-19 today open the box and one board was bent with a mark at the bend. Edges are on all boards are not finished And I Ordered Black and it is Brown with Black Legs. It is the worst thing I ever ordered. It is not worth my time to send it back so I placed it in a room that I was not going to use and order another one from someone else. Not this brand. But still from Amazon

After a few on and off with the company They did send me replace parts. So for customer service Thank You.

I was hopeful that this product was a darker version of some modular pieces I picked up a few years ago. I was sadly disappointed. The shelves were extremely thin and weak. The packaging on the product was poor and a corner was slightly damaged on arrival.

I ended up paying $30 more for real wood shelves from Windsome Wood. I would have really like the flexibility in setup that these provide.

Hope this helps!

I ordered this to use as a bookshelf and tv stand in my bedroom, and I was very disappointed when I received it. Part of it was my own fault I didn't read the "materials" section closely to find that the legs are actually plastic tubing. It makes the shelf look extremely cheap. However, it was also poorly packaged for shipping. There was to styrofoam or padding of any kind, and the shelves were scratched, dinged up, and dented. I will not be purchasing anything else from this company.

Winsome Wood Leo Shelf / Storage, Book, 2-Tier Wide

Winsome Wood Leo Shelf / Storage, Book, 2-Tier WideI just bought both the large (3 shelf) as well as this one. They just look grand in my living room. They are very easy to assemble and require no tools other than the small wrench which is included. Of course, now I have to rearrange my living room. Both items add a lot of class to my space and I am very glad that I bought both items. The baskets are sturdy with good handles on them and they can hold a good deal of stuff. The wood is high quality and has been finished very well. All in all, a very good value.

The shelving unit was very easy to put together and is really nice and stable. I thought it was going to be a bit bigger but that was my bad for not measuring. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase.

OK, so I admit that I probably should've read the fine print more clearly, but this DOES NOT come with the baskets as pictured. I am PO'd! This item is available through other vendors on amazon and they all sell it WITH the baskets so it is very confusing. There is another vendor selling the shelf and baskets for $75. Now if I want the baskets, I have to pay an ADDITIONAL 80 bucks to what I've already spent. Don't buy it from this vendor...you'll get more for your money elsewhere

Alera SW503624BL Industrial Wire Shelving Starter Kit, 4 Shelves, 36w x 24d x 72h, Black

Alera SW503624BL Industrial Wire Shelving Starter Kit, 4 Shelves, 36w x 24d x 72h, BlackThese shelves are the perfect depth for full-size tower computer servers. They are the same welded steel rod shelves as you see anywhere else, but these are 24" deep. The black color is much more stylish than the typical silver. With black server cases, the visual effect is quite pleasing.

The black finish is really tough and scratch-resistant, it's not cheap spray-paint. They are well packaged with plastic spacers so the shelves don't bang against each other in transit.

These shelves will easily handle an extended-size tower case like a CoolerMaster HAF 932. The open construction means plenty of airflow and no heat buildup. If you have been frustrated with the shallower shelves, these are the ones you are looking for. With free delivery to your doorstep the price is unbeatable.

Another nice feature of these shelves is that you can fine-tune the height with a hacksaw. It's pretty easy to cut the posts, just push the plastic caps onto the ends and it looks great.

Something to think about: get your big heavy server machine up off the floor and up at workbench height. Then you can move your server from the rack to your workbench, and back, with no lifting.

Really, these shelves look so good, you should go out of your way to complement them, and arrange all those cables in an orderly manner. The steel rod construction gives you plenty of places to attach cable ties, so you can dress everything up nice and neat.

Ordered from Amazon's partner Databazar. Shipped on next business day. Came in quickly and in good shape. Free shipping on a 50# box! Ordered the caster kit separately. Poor instructions on the caster assembly. You have to completely remove the feet that come on the shelving to add the casters. As another review states you need a sturdy dowell to put inside the leg to pop the foot out before putting the caster on. I did not use the "bumpers" above the feet as I wanted to put the shelf flush to the wall. Once on, the casters are fantastic 5 inch wheels that roll very smoothly. The shelves are huge and very sturdy. I will be able to roll 3 of these shelves out into the driveway and clean the garage in minutes.

I am very satisfied with the purchase.

Almost hard to believe the 'made in china' sticker on unit. Product came well packaged with additional securements to prevent product damage. Product is well designed and set-up was fast. Kit comes with 4 shelves, 4 vertical bars and includes parts for 1 or 2 shelving unit assembly options (1 unit with 4 shelves or 2 units with 2 shelves each). Also includes fasteners and anchors for mounting top of unit to wall if desired. Included leg/floor levelers, too. Parts are higher quality than normal out of china, no cheap fasteners or plastic parts. All steel construction with paint and not the stinky vinyl typically seen. Also very sturdy, could use this thing as a ladder.

The shelves themselves seem fine, but putting the casters on is problematic. You have to remove the existing adjustable feet, and the only way to do this is to insert a strong dowel inside the unit and bang the feet out. If, like me, you don't have exactly the right sized dowel to hand, you will need a trip to the hardware store before you can assemble the shelves a real pain. Then you have to find a way to hold the legs steady while you bang out the feet without scratching the paint off. Altogether not well thought out. A suggestion for Alera either don't put the adjustable feet in before shipment, so that caster users can assemble easily, or put a dowel in the box.

I am extremely pleased with this shelf unit. I was a little leery about ordering these since the price was about half what I could find similar wire shelves for locally and through other web sites, but the load rating was good, so I decided to give them a try. I'm glad I did. these shelves work just as well as shelves I've used in the past costing 2 to 3 times as much. I also like the fact that these shelves can be used as one tall set or two short units by utilizing the assortment of parts that they ship with. The shelves also arrived much faster than Amazon predicted. I would definitely purchase these again.

Sauder HomePlus Deep Storage Cabinet, Dakota Oak 411572

Sauder HomePlus Deep Storage Cabinet, Dakota Oak 411572I recently purchased the HomePlus Jumbo Storage Cabinet to use in my office conference room. It arrived quickly directly from the manufacturer. I spent about an hour reading through the direction prior to attempting to put the cabinet together. Since I am petite woman, I called on the help of my sister-in-law. Since I had read reviews of this taking anywhere from 4 to 12 hours (gasp!) We set a stop watch to see how long it would take. Two women, between the ages of 28 and 35, put the cabinet together in 2 hours flat.

The directions are well written and there are pictures to go along with each direction. It seems like they wrote the directions as they were assembling a cabinet because it offered a lot of suggestions to making this an easy process and it was! Only once did we get frustrated! The feet at the bottom are rather large, and my screwdriver was rather short so I had to run out and get a longer screw driver.

After assembling, I started adding things throughout the conference room to the cabinet.

The only reason I am not giving this cabinet 5 stars is because I wish the small door didn't have the shelves. I would have liked to have more space in the interior of the cabinet. I can't take off too many points for this though, because I knew that feature was included when I bought the unit.

Overall, I think this unit is fairly large, with ample storage, easy to put together, at a fair price.

The storage doesnt look anything like in the picture and not as jumbo as it claims to be either. The unit took close to 10-12 hrs for two of us to assemble. The parts were cheap and the edges chipped off while I was trying to assemble. the holes to put the door hinges were off and not at the right places which lead to the doors not sitting well and overlaying on each other. I called the Sauder company for help and the person tried to guide me over phone to fix the issue and giving me the same instructions that I had already tried and attempted.I asked if they were going to send a person to fix the doors but the rep said I'd have to call a contractor and get this fixed.

The storage in the door is such a bad idea with the shelves being so narrow and any item you put on it tends to fall off. And besides it eats into the space of the main shelf. I'd rather would have had a much wider shelving in the unit than on the door.

All in all, not worth the price and the effort that it took to assemble the piece.

I am very satisfied with this cabinet. The only complaint I have is that my CDs do not fit well in the small shelves in the door. I have to angle them a little so they clear the lip on the edge. The instructions were very clear and easy to follow. I assembled it by myself in about 4 hours. It was packaged exceptionally well and arrived without any blemishes. It is heavy and very sturdy. The hardest part of the assembly was getting the doors on straight. Luckily the hinges that are included have the ability to adjust in any direction. Everything fit together perfectly, and it looks very nice in my home office.

Want Sauder HomePlus Deep Storage Cabinet, Dakota Oak 411572 Discount?

We bought this cabinet to use a a pantry when we moved into a house that had a small kitchen. So far we are happy with it, but some things were a little annoying.

Pros:

-The smaller door offers storage with adjustable shelves which makes for more space.

-The color of the cabinet is very pretty.

-The amount of storage is pretty good, and I like that I can adjust the shelves to fit taller items.

Cons:

-It is a big pain in the rear to put together. There are a lot of parts and it took my husband and I a few hours to put together. The instructions are not that great. There are a few parts that you need to drill holes yourself, which I didn't like. If you drill too far, you can't put the screw in. I feel like if you don't line the parts up exactly when you are drilling the holes, it effects how square the piece turns out, so you could end up with doors that are out of alignment.

-The doors do not adjust much, so ours has doors that are a little lopsided. If it doesn't align correctly, the smaller door doesn't stay shut.

-There is no hardware to affix the cabinet to the wall. I think this is very important, especially if you have little kids that open the doors to get a snack.

All in all, I'd say it's ok. Not bad, but not much better quality than IKEA.
