Salamander Archetype Two Shelf Rack (Black)

Salamander Archetype Two Shelf RackI had always had a Salamander Archetype 5.0 in my main home theater unit for over a decade, but as my theater grew in components and scope, I needed to add additional rack housing to meet my growing needs and demands. This 2.0 shelf meets my requirements, not only in expansion, but also in aesthetics as well. Now, instead of having many components stacked on top of each other atop a 5.0 Archetype...I know have better uniformity and exclusivity for each of the components in my rack. Even the expanded look of the rack lends itself nicely not only in my theater...but my home as well. This is money well-spent and worth it!!!! And even my movies and television programs play back very well as a result. Great product. a very, very great product. Thanks!!!! :)

John Louis Home Curved 12 inch Angle Bracket Kit for Standard and Premier Closet

12 Inch Angled Wood Shelf Brackets Red MahoganyThese angled shelf brackets are solid. The only con is the mounting hardware that's comes with the brackets are the wrong type. Use 1/8 screws with toggle bolts and the brackets won't budge and pull out from the wall. These are not made for real heavy objects however I have a printer on the shelf I made (between 10 and 12 Lbs) and even with the vibration from the printer printing the brackets hold tight, carry the weight,and look great!

I would have given it 5 stars but the price is high for only two brackets.. Color matched well with the rest of the set

The brackets were the right ones but the color was a bit off from the original kit that was oreder. They are uaed in the bottom of the closet so the color really does not matter. Overall I am very satisfied with the products purchased from Organize-IT

TRINITY EcoStorageTM 6-Tier NSF 48"x18"x72" Wire Shelving Rack w/wheels - Chrome

TRINITY EcoStorageTM 6-Tier NSF 48'x18'x72' Wire Shelving Rack w/wheels - ChromeOrdered these, this brand (TRINITY) from COSTCO.COM, sent them back. These are NOT the same gauge as the HEAVY DUTY shelf units. Even though they call these Heavy Duty, beware, good only for light to medium weights, (under 150#) The picture shows a reinforced center on the shelves....THERE IS NONE. These are strictly a medium duty shelf. The shelf units sold in the COSTCO Warehouse are obviously heavier duty and the gauge of the wire is larger. These will not support 300 lbs as stated without sagging. I wouldn't recommend for garage storage, heavy items. General assembly is all the same on this type of units, but there is a big difference in shelf strength.

Update 10-12-10.....A year plus has gone by....obviously they have changed their product according to the recent reviews....my review was accurate at the time it was written....things change, but after my experience, I want to see what I'm getting. And the person from Trinity that said Costco never sold "Trinity" products, I suggest you do your homework before you make a statement that is not truthful, I just, at this writing checked Costco website, there are 7 Trinity products available from Costco.com....and at a cheaper price too!!!!

I put this rack together a few nights ago and I *love* it! I don't know how much, in terms of weight, I've put on it but each of the shelves is full of many different things from kitchen appliances to books to games, and so on and so forth. I have no doubt that these shelves would be able to hold upwards of 500 pounds on each! The rack was not only really easy to assemble, but adjusting the shelf height, even after I'd set the entire thing up, was also really easy! It was a breeze to move the interlocking mechanisms that secure the shelves in place.

Much like C. Lin, I, too, am uncertain that the first reviewer bought the same shelf. He states that there is no reinforced center on the shelves but mine definitely has them. I would definitely get more of these should the need arise!!

I chose this product because it was reasonably priced. I am so glad I purchase it. It was extremely easy to assemble. The design is wonderful. I am using it to store food in my pantry. It holds everything easily. I have quite a bit of weight on the shelves as I am storing home-canned goods. The shelves are adjustable. I am using the wheels but there are also optional stationary legs. The wheels work great. I would highly recommend this unit for anyone.

While researching for racks for my garage, I found these and due to the price, I decided to buy these despite one of the reviews being negative.

Shipping was fast, building was simple, and I found that there was a reinforced center and Ive been able to put my weights on there with no sagging.

Great product, great price, no problems.

Want TRINITY EcoStorageTM 6-Tier NSF 48"x18"x72" Wire Shelving Rack w/wheels - Chrome Discount?

I bought 4 of these, (2 for starters, then 2 more a week later) One out of the 4 arrived with a bent shelf, no fault of the manufacturer, it had been manhandled on delivery. I straightened it myself, not wanting to wait since it was a holiday weekend and I wanted to use them.

Setup was easy. Since they are chrome I waxed them first to make sure the finish was clean and so they would stay polished without fingerprints. Installation was very easy, the uprights have double rings regularly spaced that can be used for counting where to put the plastic shelf locks to make sure you have them all at the same height without having to readjust them.

Build quality is good, I put the casters on mine, to make it easy to move for cleaning. The height was great, I've got storage to the ceiling, no dead space. I've had my shelves about 3 weeks and so far, they are great. I happened to catch a sale and got a 25% discount, so whats not to like?

I'll likely buy more for the basement as well. Comes with a wrench, not really needed, since the threads will thread together by hand. One spare plastic shelf mount, in case you break one, and though I bought the style with casters, they included leveling pads in case I didn't want to use the wheels.

I quite like them, they add a clean look to the rooms, and will outlive me I'm certain.

Stanley Hardware 7-by-8-Inch Modern Shelf Bracket, Satin Nickel #250597

Stanley Hardware 7-by-8-Inch Modern Shelf Bracket, Satin Nickel #250597I am totally in LOVE with these shelf brackets...they provide just the look I was going for in my art studio. I wanted something with an Art Deco feel to it and these brackets fit the bill perfectly. Not only are they the absolute best design, the craftsmanship is well above what I have found locally. They are very sturdy, the brush nickel finish adds a touch of elegance and they come ready-to-install. If you are looking for simply amazing shelf brackets at a reasonable price, look no further.

I purchased six of these for the installation of three 36" shelves over a toilet when I remodeled my bathroom.

These brackets are made of heavy gauge metal, welded, and are extremely strong. The finish looks very good. The satin nickel is a little darker than the brushed chrome that I used for some other items, but blends well.

These look especially good with the dark mahogany stain on the shelves.

Shelf Hangers - 24" Wide X 16" Tall

Shelf Hangers - 24' Wide X 16' TallI got lucky by randomly checking alternative suppliers/listings for this common item. Basically half the price of the other sellers by eliminating the packaging (bought two sets for price of 1 elsewhere). Received hangers quickly, and was surprised to NOT find the mounting eye bolts (lag screws). Checked the description more carefully, and it clearly says "screws not included"...my bad. But a trivial thing to buy still a huge savings. Thanks for a great deal.

I liked these so much I ordered more...very quick and easy solution for shelving! Very easy to put up and holds a lot!

Needed to hang a stereo (63lbs), media player and Xbox360 in the basement and these fit the bill perfectly. Keeps everything off floor and out of the reach of the little ones. Just added eyebolts and two 2x2' shelves and had it all set up in a double hanging configuration in less than 15 minutes. I did eventually go back lace retainers on the bottom of the shelves to keep them from sliding and felt lined the back of the shelf so I could push it flushly against wall to keep it swinging when changing game discs.

Akro-Mils 39175 Plastic Storage and Distribution Container Tote with Hinged Lid, 24-Inch L by 19.5-

Akro-Mils 39175 Plastic Storage and Distribution Container Tote with Hinged Lid, 24-Inch L by 19.5-Inch W by 12.5-Inch H, GreySturdy, and well buiilt, I plan to use it to store my son's dirt bike gear and boots. It is big and sturdy and fits the purpose.

These are the best moving containers as they are nearly indestructible, water proof, won't pop open, and they won't succumb to mold and high humidity. They are expensive compared to a cardboard box, but they are so much better. Invest in a set, they'll last you a lifetime, and you can pass them on to your heirs. No kidding.

Winsome Wood Leo Wood 4 Tier Shelf with 5 Rattan Baskets - 1 large; 4 small in Espresso Finish

Winsome Wood Leo Wood 4 Tier Shelf with 5 Rattan Baskets - 1 large; 4 small in Espresso FinishThis was my first winsome wood purchase... and am very pleased. The shelf unit was VERY easy to assemble...took about 30min and was sturdy. I am using this as a TV stand on the very top shelf...and loaded up books on the bottom two shelves...with rattan baskets on the shelf just under the TV. I used the remaining baskets with another winsome wood shelf unit that I bought from amazon.

The color of the expresso is very dark brown, but looks elegant with the rattan baskets which have a cedar/cherry type weave to them. I have cherry wood in my bedroom and this was a great way to bring in the dark brown expresso wood without clashing since the baskets had a cherry weave in them.

The baskets are sturdy and seem to be strong enough to hold everything from jeans to random lighter items.

The wood itself was not as smooth/sanded as I personally would have liked... so after the expresso staining by the manufacturer it had the duller appearance in the places that the wood was rough. This was easy to adapt to by turning the wood piece over to hide it. For the price it was worth every penny... I prefer solid wood over particle board any day of the week!

My first beef is with shipping. I waited 2 weeks past the listed "estimated delivery date" to receive it. It's sturdy and overall I think I'll like it once I finally get it assembled...which leads me to to my second beef. The unit has pre drilled holes which worked just fine until I tried to attach the top board. They didn't pre drill the holes on the top large enough, the screw head wouldn't fit. At this point the rest of the cabinet was already assembled so my husband couldn't make the holes bigger without damaging it. We bought some screws with a smaller head but that didn't work because the screw went way to far into the hole and almost poped through the top. This is very irritating. I have to try a different screw which means another trip to the store. If you order, double check that all of the screws fit into the pre drilled holes before you start to assemble.

I bought this for my foyer because of its elegant design and the fact that the depth is just 11.5 inches. It's hard to find units that narrow. I use it for hats, scarfs and gloves. It was easy to assemble and looks like the picture. There were two issues that stopped me from giving it five stars. One of the drill holes was missing, which would have been a real problem if my friend did not have a drill. Also, while the wood and the baskets seem very sturdy, parts of the wood are scuffed with a few rough patches. However, because the unit arrived in three boxes, I wasn't about to send it back. Overall it's a nice piece to have in the entryway.

Well looks AREN'T everything, but they are a big part of why you pick certain furniture. This piece is very basic and easy to assemble and comes with the tools you need if you don't already own an allen® wrench set. Personally, I used an Allen® socket on a ratchet to speed up the process of assembly.

The wood is pine, but it's stained fairly well and it looks decent. I think it has one application of poly on it as it looks like it's pretty thin. The fact is is this is NOT an expensive piece of furniture. It serves its purpose well and looks decent while doing it.

Assembly time (with a 2 year old "helping") is around 30 minutes, take off 15 for anyone not having to walk around and look for all the screws and boards. lol

Baskets are thin rattan style baskets that look to be fairly sturdy. They're weaved over a steel wire structure.

I've added pictures of a board. It's the top board and the picture shows the underside which is only visible if you're on the floor looking up.

ClosetMaid 893 9-Cube Laminate Organizer

ClosetMaid 893700 9-Cube Laminate Organizer, EspressoI have only had this product for a few days, but so far I could not be happier. I bought it on Amazon for $49.99 with free shipping to try to help organize my daughters toy. It arrived in about 36 hours! It was very easy to put together and the cherry color matches my cherry table (which is in the same room) perfectly! I purchased 4 natural closetmaid fabric drawers from Target and placed them in the four corners leaving the other shelves open for bigger toys. Target sells 2 packs of the drawers for $12.99, which was the best price I could find. I highly recommend this product.

I actually purchased this item in-store, at Target. If you've ever purchased "do-it-yourself" particle board furniture, expect similar quality; however, I was surprised at the finish, as it seems a little more durable, has a very slight texture and a polished shine to it. Not the matte look that is so typical and scratches easily.

Putting the unit together was a breeze and I highly recommend purchasing some additional pieces to create your own organizing system. The second piece I've bought is Item 78817, Closetmaid Cubicals Stack or Hang 2 Cube Organizer, which I'm going to hang above it or lay it on top to create a tiered look.

The fabric bins that fit into each cube are as of September 2010 $6.99/ea or $12.99/two pack; I just wish they had an orange color...but they do have a lot of colors to choose, so I went aall natural with cream; khaki and taupe.

Summing it up. Five stars for sturdy feel, optional wall attachment clip to keep it from falling on small children, better than most do-it-yourself furniture finishes, ease of installation and the all important price point.

Buy ClosetMaid 893 9-Cube Laminate Organizer Now

I got this cube thingy for my 2 year old son's toys. The finish was nice and matched his bed, and the cube boxes worked well too. Its very sturdy an doesn't wobble at all, like some particle board things do.

The only issues I had with it was that none of the boards were drilled through to allow the pegs through, but it was easy to fix, and the backs were very ugly. My solution to that was to buy some colorful scrapbook paper and cover them. It made the shelf really fun for my son because there are different colors and patterns inside each cube.

Over all, I really like this product and intend to buy another one for my self to hold purses and hats and such

The organizer looks great once assembled and is exactly as pictured. However, the panels are a lot more flimsy than they appear in the pictures and can't hold much weight. I wanted to stack up two of these together against the wall, but that didn't work because the frame wouldn't hold together. On one of the units, the wood cracked from the bottom when i was assembling it, this was without any pressure at all. I'll be keeping these for now, but I'm sure there are more sturdy alternatives available.

Want ClosetMaid 893 9-Cube Laminate Organizer Discount?

I absolutely LOVE this item! I first bought it in white for my 3 year old son's room, liked it so much that I bought 2 more for my living room. (in the espresso finish) They look great in the living room, and when you pair it up with the natural color canvas baskets it works GREAT to hide my son's toys he leaves in the living room! I use one for his toys, and the other one for my cookbooks/nicknacks. My mom came to visit and now wants one, she's ordering one as soon as she gets home!

One thing to warn you however, the pieces were NOT labeled, but it was still really easy to put together. I think it took MAYBE 10 minutes total. Very sturdy once it's assembled, I don't know why others gave it a bad review for a "cheap feel". For the price, it EXCEEDED my expectations! It's well worth the price I paid, if not more! I'll end up buying at least two more by the end of the year...=)

Maple 29" High Two Shelf Bookcase

Prepac Oak 2-shelf BookcaseIt looks nice and matches my oak floors well (I got the oak, but it is the same book case other than the 1 micron thick veneer). I got the book cases (four of them) because it fits into the space in my office and it looked, from the photos, okay, especially for the money. Given that I didn't pay shipping or taxes, I figured I'd go for it.

This is what the company selling the product does NOT tell you. If they did, they would sell far less product. I know I wouldn't have ordered this book case. 1. The back of the book case is not laminate wood (as advertised) nor is it a board. It is cardboard with a sheet of oak looking paper on it. It is both cheap and false advertising. 2. The clips to hold the shelf in place are made of plastic. They need to be changed to brass so that the shelf does not collapse from the weight of the books. That's an additional expense, albeit minor, but it also means a trip to Home Depot or your local hardware store.

At least now you can make an informed decision. Zero stars for the fallacious advertising, cheap backing, and plastic clips, and three stars for the book case. I am keeping the book cases only because the size is correct for my purposes. We'll see how long it lasts. Fair value for this book case would be about $50. Check Staples, Ikea, Office Depot, etc., before even thinking of buying this book case.

Instructions were adequate. Backing is a piece of cardboard to nail on, but not the worst I've ever seen. I've purchased hokey and cheap before, and this is a little better than that. All in all, a nice little piece of furniture that's appropriate to the amount I spent on it.

Elegant Home Fashions Stratford Collection Framed Mirror with Shelf, White

Elegant Home Fashions Stratford Collection Framed Mirror with Shelf, WhiteLike reviewer Triana, I bought this mirror for use in a very small bathroom. In some ways, it is quite nice. The frame is solidly assembled and all the joints are tight. The finish is generally good, though certainly not of fine-furniture quality. There is some evidence of uneven finish sanding, for example, and the sheen on the paint is uneven in places. I'm not sure the finish will tolerate bumps without chipping.

The mirror, itself, is made of very thin glass. Of greater significance, the item that I received had the mirror mounted a little high in the frame so that the cut edge was clearly visible at the bottom. A bit of disassembly and adjustment fixed that problem. I saw no evidence that it had slipped during shipping; I suspect it was just hastily assembled. The packaging was substantial.

In short, this is an inexpensive mirror that offers reasonably good value for money. If you view your own furnishings with a very critical eye or worry that others may do so, you may not find the build quality acceptable. For most of us, a week after it goes up we won't even notice the little defects.

I am so in love with the frame for this mirror, but the mirror is so badly warped that it makes you dizzy! A previous reviewer had the same problem. I just bought a new home, and checked the mirror for damage when it arrived, but I didn't actually hang the mirror until later when I noticed the distortion problem and it was too late to return. I'm hoping I can just get the mirror piece replaced at a glass shop because the rest of it is actually solidly built and similar to that 'high end store' mirror, but much less expensive. Great in a small half bath, definitely not big enough for a full bathroom.

Cappuccino Book Shelf / Case

Cappuccino Book Shelf / CaseNice product. Price is good but the shipping then makes it a bit pricy for a book shelf. A bit hard to put together because the sides aren't labeled and I had them facing the wrong way so I had to take it all apart. In theory it isn't hard to put together, but knowing which way those sides face to begin with (before I tried to put in the back rails) would have saved me an hour of time. TIP: The sides with the MOST holes face inward. One HUGE draw back is that the shelves aren't adjustable and aren't very tall so taller books/items won't fit on the shelves.
