ClosetMaid 9 Cube Laminated Wood Reversible Stackable Open Bookcase Display Shelf Storage Organizer for Home and Office Organization, White

Sturdy, Spacious, and Simple to Assemble This ClosetMaid 12-cube organizer turned out to be a solid choice for our storage needs. The unit is surprisingly sturdy once put together and can hold a good amount of weight without bowing. I like that it can be positioned vertically or horizontally depending on the space, which makes it versatile for both a living room or a closet. The white finish has a clean, simple look that blends well with different room styles. Assembly was straightforward with clear instructions; it took me about an hour working at a steady pace. All the pieces lined up properly, and I didn’t have any trouble with missing parts. Once set up, the cubes are roomy enough for bins, books, or even folded clothes, and it helps keep things looking tidy instead of cluttered. Something to keep in mind is that, while it’s sturdy, it’s still particleboard — so it’s best for lighter items or evenly distributed weight. I wouldn’t overload it with very heavy objects. Bottom line: A functional, attractive, and easy-to-assemble organizer that provides flexible storage at a reasonable price.

I gave this 5 stars for the ECONOMY of it, but feel I should clarify what this IS and IS NOT. THIS IS VERY BASIC ECONOMY LIGHTWEIGHT STORAGE AT A CHEAP PRICEPOINT. This is NOT the same as the Ikea Kallax or Walmart Better Homes and Gardens level of reinforced sturdiness for holding heavier weighted items like books, nor are the interior cube dimensions compatible with those brands of 13" or 12" fabric cubes. This IS: These shelves are ideal for lighter-weight storage such as baby/toddler clothes or kids toys--- or in our case, the kids wanted LEGO display shelves for their 10x10 base-plate scenes and quick storage of random toys like Hotwheels, etc. When purchasing fabric cubes be sure they are the 10" or 11" dimensions. I found that "Mainstays" collapsible fabric cubes at Walmart fit nicely in here, but even better score was when I found some 11" cubes at our Dollar Tree (bargain!). These ClosetMaid Cubeicals benefit from being anchored into a stud on the wall, rather than being used as stand-alone/free-standing shelves. The 9 cube = 3x3 could be tolerable/"okay" freestanding if you absolutely insist, but I also bought some 1x4 and those must be secured or they sway and wobble pretty noticeably. A few miscellaneous notes: The 5 "shelf backings" arrive with a permanent creased fold down the middle-for shipping, and are made of thin poster-board like material. If this crease bothers you, just buy posterboard and cut your own backs to tack in. Or if you want something thicker, I imagine "foamboard" from the school supply aisle works great if you score it with a box-cutter. When I tacked in the shelf backings, one of my shelves tore/split even though the tack went in straight and precisely where it should have. I chose to use wood glue to repair the piece rather than return the shelves. This was fast and easy to assemble, the instructions were clear. We've had the shelves for two days now, so I may update this later on to report on durability. Why I gave it 5 stars: The shelves fit our current purpose wonderfully, and I love that when I don't require heavy duty weight bearing shelves, there is a very economical option I can snatch up. Eventually I do want the heavy duty, larger 13" cube shelves from a major brand, but for now I appreciated paying less than forty bucks to have a 9 cube = 3x3 shelf, rather than eighty or one twenty bucks for 3x3 from the other brands. Later on, I will pay more to buy some that are textbook sturdy and can do more things. The photos: You will notice I originally had 12" cubes (white with blue petals), and realized I needed the 10 or 11" cubes (beige/gray). Also I did show one photo of my 4 cube storage here, even though this is my review for the 9 cube (3x3).

amazing big and very heavy, its particle board and cheaper, but for something thats not full real wood it doesnt feel like particle board its super sturdy and heavy. its simple to put together very deep for the price as well its like 1ft by 1ft on the bigger end. screws and alignment are excellent the guidlines make it so easy to put together

Shelf was easy to assemble, although a little flimsy one of the dowels pushed through as I was assembling it, overall it's a good shelf that will suit our needs just fine!

Sturdy and looks great! I'll be purchasing another one with two more slots and moving this one to another space!

I was looking for something to act as a second linen closet (towels and sheets). I ordered this and put it together last night. Pros: Once put together, it is not bad looking (if you are keeping it in a closet out of view, should be fine), and seems moderately sturdy. Also, the dowels actually fit when you had to put pieces together, so that was a big positive. Assembly time- about an hour and 10 min. by yourself. Negatives: 1. Instructions (are easy to follow but woefully incomplete- you will essentially figure it out at as you go along- for example- make sure you put all assembly screws in the side of each divider and on the top and bottom shelf in order to ensure a moderate level of stability and sturdinesss. The pack comes with 18 Assembly screws. If you haven't used all of them, you must make sure you do. The instructions won't tell you this, but you will figure it out as you go along. 2. The material is cheap particle or flake board. Significant cracking on one of the shelves (did not appear to affect durability, but out of the box, this is pretty unacceptable- essentially, it was a broken product, but because box is so heavy, returning it is just a giant pain in the neck- who feels like dealing with that). 3. Dowels- Several of the dowels (which are used to connect the the sides of cubicles to divider, and to the cubicle shelves themselves were in poor condition- several broke- You should have 14 short dowels and 6 long ones. About 15-20% of them were warped or broken, so I had to mess around with them to make them workable. On the other hand they actually fit the holes in the shelves, so that was good. 4. The supplies and screws and dowels, etc.. were put in the box in a ripped bag, and thus the screws, etc. had all fallen out by the time I opened the box, and I had to spend too much time finding everything (All screws, etc., were there though). This is really unacceptable. Conclusion- Cheaply made product with mediocre instructions, too many warped or broken assembly pieces, but fairly easy to put together (its intuitive for the most part), but seems to be moderately durable (if put together right) and okay looking when put together, and fits quite a bit a stuff, and is good limited space and depth. Given the price point, I would say it's probably worth it. But only moderately worth it. It really should not come with any cracked shelves, or product or broken assembly items. This is a huge turnoff. So I think its functional, but with several cons that detract from what otherwise be a killer product.

These shelving units have been so helpful in my organization books and toys they are easy to put together and they were delivered quickly I would recommend buying

Wonderful, easy to assemble, brilliant instructions, look good. I fixed them to the wall in case my grandson decided to climb but they are probably sturdy enough for normal use without that in normal circumstances. Wall fixing is included though for safety reasons.

I love this storage unit. I bought two of them and stacked them on top of each other. They are simple with clean lines and classic white. The cubes make for really versatile storage of different kinds of items and can add colourful drawers as well to brighten up the unit and match your decor etc. I put them together on my own so pretty simple to put up. Looked fairly modest when I put them up in size but they held loads of item. Put everything I wanted to put away in there and still had room for future storing. Very happy. Only thing I'd say is that the backings looked fairly flimsy like cardboard but since I never wanted to put them on that didn't bother me, just put it against a wall.

بصراحه سيئ جداً وجاني كنه مستعمل والخشب سيء بالمره

Excelente calidad! Aunque las vistas de fondo son de cartón, no le resta calidad al producto! Muy sencillo de instalar y excelente mueble para organizar juguetes, además me encanto que trae una pieza de seguridad anti caídas para niños.
