:USE Ollipsis Console with Glass Shelf
Buy :USE Ollipsis Console with Glass Shelf Now
Love everything about this shelf--it's modern look really accents my bathroom. I'm no handy man here, so getting it even and level on the wall was somewhat of a challenge. Yes, the directions are helpful, it is simply my lack of an actual level or the patience to ask someone to help me install it is what made this difficult. A great item overall.Read Best Reviews of :USE Ollipsis Console with Glass Shelf Here
This is a very nice shelf which was extremely reasonable price wise. It is thick tempered glass and looks great!It's hard to believe that a glass shelf would originally cost so much and even at the discounted price it's still twice the cost of the exact same item when purchased from the manufacturer via Walmart online. Even though the shipping cost with Walmart adds just under $6 it's still a better deal than this.Friday, February 14, 2014
South Shore Furniture City Life Collection TV Stands
I had 2 concerns with this unit though.
1) My Harmony 880 Universal Remote (Buy one of these!!) wouldn't be able to penetrate the frosted glass.
2) Enclosing my components (most importantly the PS3 and receiver) behind doors would cause overheating.
I'm happy to report that none of my fears came true. The Harmony works through the frosted doors with ease.
I'm also happy to report that my components won't overheat. My last step in the building process was to attach the backing material to the unit. Before doing so I tried to wiggle the unit a little bit and it was rock solid. As a result I left the backing unit off so everything is open in the back.
If I was placing my TV on the stand then I probably would have installed the backing but since I don't have that weight I probably don't need the extra support.
I have nothing bad to say about this unit.

I just put this together by myself in about 2 hours. I know the guy that reviewed this before me says he did it in an hour but I'm the type that reads everything and checks every part. Either way, pretty simple construction yet once it's completed the stand is very sturdy. I even sat on it so it can withstand a rather heavy TV if needed to but I wouldn't suggest trying to put a larger CRT TV on it mostly cause of how deep they would be. The stand is moreso built for the new flat-panel TVs which mine will be supporting a 40" LCD HDTV. Oh, on a side note: those little round things you see at the bottom of the picture are just little plastic knobs, not rollers or metal feet. Just plastic. The silver supports on the top shelf where the TV sits are actual metal. Thought people might want to know that before ordering.Read Best Reviews of South Shore Furniture City Life Collection TV Stands Here
We purchased this stand on Amazon with a little trepidation, having had bad experiences with DIY assembly furniture in the past... especially items made in China. We were very very pleased however with this unit.The materials used are high quality MDF, and every pre-drilled hole and plug was in exactly the right position. (No off-center or missing holes like many previous items we have assembled). The unit is made in Quebec, Canada, and the company is clearly dedicated to quality! The assembly manual was thorough and understandable. Every illustration in the manual showed each piece precisely as it should be oriented, with every pre-drilled hole shown in the illustration. This is critically important, because it eliminates the potential for assembling any piece the wrong way and having to start over.
Each piece is clearly marked with a code that is referenced in the manual, and the company ships the unit with a few extra small items like plastic dowels... "just in case"!
Assembly was straightforward and timed at exactly one hour... including downing two cups of coffee during assembly!
The description on the Amazon site shows this base as limited to a 40" TV, but we found our 47" Vizio (85lbs) fit without issue and looks great on the stand. (The manual indicates a maximum weight on the top shelf at 185lbs.)
As others here have mentioned, the smoked glass on the cabinet doors does NOT inhibit infrared remote use. We have a DirecTV satellite box in the cabinet, and the remote works perfectly through the door. (See the user picture I have posted on this page with notes)
PRO's:
Beautiful stand made of High Quality materials
Every piece fits perfectly, and instructions are clear and complete
Infrared devices can be used for electronics kept inside the smoked glass doors
Easy Assembly in about an hour
Neutral's:
Plastic legs may become worn after repeated moving by sliding the base instead of lifting
CON's:
None really. This is a very well-made unit
NOTE: This review is for the PRODUCT and if I could, I'd give it SIX stars. It's really that good. HOWEVER, if I was also rating Amazon's handling of this item, I would drop it to THREE stars due to inaccurate shipping info:
I ordered the unit on 1 December with PRIME 2-day shipping (With the caveat that Amazon stated a 2-5 day processing time on the item's order page)
On 3 Dec, Amazon's Order Tracking indicated that the item had been shipped and that delivery was scheduled for 4 December
4th and 5th December passed without delivery, so I called FedEx to ask about the tracking number. They said they hadn't yet taken possession of the stand, only a pickup order.
I called South Shore's number in Canada to ask "what's up" and spoke to a VERY NICE lady who advised me that all their products get delayed by CUSTOMS at the border. Understandable BUT Amazon should clearly reflect this possible delay in shipping, and provide more accurate shipping data.
Stand finally arrived on 8th of December via FedEx. Not bad for the item, but caused some frustration due to Amazon's inaccurate tracking and delivery estimate.
In summary, this is a GREAT stand; easily assembled; functional and esthetically pleasing. And while Amazon dropped the ball a bit on shipping data, this unit is still HIGHLY recommended!!

This TV stand is great. It was really easy to put together even by myself over a couple of beers. It looks really good with glass doors and real metal not plastic door handles and shelf supports. Now all I need is a new TV to go with it.Sunday, February 9, 2014

We needed more "storage" in our cottage bathroom where space was at a premium. This cabinet caught our eye for its style and very reasonable price. It arrived quickly and was quite easy to assemble. We were so pleased that we immediately ordered a companion piece for another location.Want Ellsworth Single Door Floor Cabinet - Espresso/Brown Discount?
The price of the cabinet was good but the quality is alittle less than I'd hoped for. It seems to chip easily and I' ve had to touch it up with stain a couple of time already. I think it would be alittle better if the edges were rounded and not square,about the chipping.Wednesday, November 20, 2013
Winsome Wood CD/DVD Cabinet with Glass Doors, Antique Walnut
The assembly is not complicated, it uses bolts with cam locks.
PRO's: Finish, color, enclosed to keep dust out.
CON's: poor door hinge design; it's too small and spacing for DVD's is very restrictive.
The doors do not close evenly and make contact with the shelving.
DVD space is lost because of the top door magnets.
Summary: nice looks but lack of spacing between DVD/shelves and doors causes problems with proper clsosing. Everything is very tightly packed.I purchased this to sit next to my 52 inch LCD entertainment system. It looks very sharp. No complaints there. The design is very poor. The door won't shut all of the way because the hinge is not set in the correct place. When the doors are shut, there is a gap between them. The shelving arrangement is complicated because in the center of the back wall there is a support beam that doesn't allow the doors to shut if DVD's sit on that shelf. I have worked around it by repositioning the shelves but it is a pain.

I thought this cabinet was a great deal, what with the free shipping and all. Well, when I opened the box to put it together, the top was dented. Looks as though it was thrown at some point. I guess its a good thing its the part that faces the wall.You lose a whole shelf if you use the support beam. I wish I would have read that review throughly. Also you lose space on top because of the magnets that hold the doors together. Its pretty wobbly. I'm not sure if I'll even keep this cabinet. I have 2 small childen and the last thing I need is for it to fall on one of them. Yes, they include a drywall screw to screw the unit into the wall..but comeon.. make a sturdier piece of furniture!
If you don't have alot of cds/dvds to store and don't mind a shotty piece of furniture, then by all means ..ignore this review.

The best made piece of put together furniture I have ever purchased. Took longer to arraign the CD's and DVD's then it took to assemble. No missing or damaged parts. Shipping took less then 48 hours from PA to SC. This is a small unit which was what I needed, make sure the size fits your needs. The pictures on the net are deceiving. Other sites on the web have this same unit for over $150, I would have been dissappointed if I paid more then I did. The only negative problem is if you use middle back support brace you can't store any cd's or dvd's on that shelf, the doors won't close. Also if you are living in the dark ages like me, this is not a unit for VHS tapes, you will run out of room quickly. Other than that this is a good buy.Monday, September 23, 2013

I bought this to store spices on the inside door of a kitchen cabinet. It was easy to install (because my cabinet doors are so thin, we came up with a plan to get them on using a washer and a screw...long story but it worked). My new open space kitchen does not have space for spices near the cooking zone. I stacked these small wire racks one above the other on each side of the pantry right and left as the door is opened.Want Homz Laundry/Seymour Wht Wire Spice Rack 23010201.36 Organizers Storage Kitchen Discount?
