Better Homes and Gardens 8-Cube Organizer - White

I was hesitant about getting this - it wasn't the exact size I wanted (what ever is?) but similar items from 'lines' cost about $800. that's the first big 'plus' for this piece. The second is that it came earlier than expected and was undamaged - though the packaging was so secure Imneeded a new box cutter to open it. (I'm over 70, so moving the packed box and then pulling out tightly packed pieces wasn't so easy (the box weighs over 70# - haha! Matched my age.) Once i got the pieces out and laid out, I read the directions, which (like most put-togethers) were occasionally vague, but far better than most. If you're older and putting this together by yourself, if can be a bit of a balancing act while you line up pegs and holes - that said, it was the easiest assembly I've ever had. The storage unit looks great - not at all inexpensive - and when I've got it done properly.will actually be quite handsome. It is also sturdy (I'm using it on it's side, in my living room, to hold books, LPs, and small statues). I'd buy it again in a flash. My next wish is that this group make a 20" high bench storage, same length(height)...hope they are listening!

We LOVE the difference these cubes made! These cube shelves were easy to put together and made the room look so much more streamlined. We also purchased all matching "Simplify Large Woven Strap Totes" that fit perfectly into each of the cubes so now there's a uniform look to what was once very cluttered. The room still holds everything we need but it's all "out-of-sight"! Much more appealing. Thank you! Prefect solution for a multi-use room. We even put our books in the totes to keep it all uniform.

Was a little daunting at first since the box was so heavy I could barely move it- had to open it in the garage and make several trips into the house with the pieces. But it’s easy for one person to assemble and is nice and sturdy. I’m using it in a walk in closet and am pleased with how it looks. I got the storage bins on Amazon too- they are 13 x 13, made by EZOWare and as you can see, they fit perfectly. When I bought this I figured it would be fine for a closet but it’s good quality and I’m sure could look nice in any room in your home.

We have two of these bookshelves, ordered one a couple of years ago for my daughter when she was 12 and she was able to assemble it herself. We got the second one today for my younger daughter and it was a serious battle. One of the cam locks snapped inside the hole. I had to dig it out with a screwdriver, and then drill a larger hole to fit one of the many standard-sized cam locks my husband had in his tools. It doesn't look pretty, but gosh darn it, I got it to work and I'm so proud of myself for not letting this damn bookshelf get the best of me. I would have just contacted the seller for the extra part, but given how long shipping took on this thing, I didn't want to have a half-build bookshelf in my living room and books all over my daughter's room for another 2 weeks. I guess given the sturdiness and cost of this, it's worth the gamble on assembly, especially if you're a handy person and can improvise on the fly.

It can always be a bit of gamble buying furniture items like these with problems like broken and damaged parts. Overall I'm really happy with it though! It's not too hard to put together and looks clean, contemporary, and sturdy once assembled. Some of the edges did wear off a little taking away from its clean look but you have to look closely to really notice it. I just made sure to put the "bad" edge against wall to hide it better. Mine looks as good as the assembled photos of others who put theirs up.

Do not get this product if sturdiness or at least average quality matters to you. This product assembles easily—but so does stacking legos in a single column. This product follows that sort of pattern, so I’d imagine there is a decent opportunity to break this product while putting it together. Its pieces tilt and shift while fitting the plastic screws in the fiberboard pre-drilled holes. Be aware of that if you decide not to trust this review. This product is flimsy. The paint is powdery and will smear on your floor, walls, or any products you’d like to store in it. If this product was designed to be virtually impossible to return, then this product was designed exceptionally well. It’s hard to get out of its box, impossible to get back into its box, and not worth taking apart once it’s together. In the attached photos, you can view that the alignment is off and that the paint is already chipping immediately after build completion. Sorry for the negative review! Just want the community to be happy even if I’m not—with this product.

Beautiful piece. Very well made. Easy to assemble by myself. Fits great in my closet in my bathroom. Provide a lot of space that I need. Fast shipping. Very pleased.

I just moved into a loft and didn't want to spend a fortune on furniture. This hit the spot! With some pretty cubes it will be nice. 55 inch Sony sits on top with plenty of room for Xbox and wii.
