You're buying the world's cheapest wire shelving, which is no doubt made from surplus pesticide by prison laborers in China. That said, these shelves are actually quite thoughtfully designed. In particular, the joiner blocks are nice and snug, and each slot has multiple detents for assembly. That's actually very helpful. The strength comes from the lattice structure. Individual panes are somewhat flexible. In fact, they are exactly as flexible as is optimal for assembly. After going through the assembly process, I'd make the following points: 1) All joiner blocks have one nice, plain, circular face. The face should face forward on the front joiners and backward on the rear joiners. No other orientation is needed, anywhere. It's tempting to make subassemblies and then put those together, but be sure you know exactly how subassemblies will fit into the larger structure. I think it's actually easier to do the whole thing at once. 2) I initially started by making sure every pane was fully inserted into its slot as I went. But this turns out to be counterproductive since it limits your flexibility to add adjoining panels and correct problems. Assemble the entire thing loosely, then snug it up. 3) Go in layers. The starting point for each layer is a fully-assembled mini-shelf. For each new layer, insert the back and vertical panes ONLY in the joiner blocks that are already there. The joiner blocks are strong enough to keep them roughly in place as you work. Then add joiner blocks along the REAR, free corners of those newly-added panels. Finally, add new top (flat) panels, then put in the front joiner blocks. This sequence keeps you from having to readjust and disassemble too much. 4) Back panels connect to the subsidiary slots in the joiner blocks, not one of the four main slots. Back panel = secondary slot. Everything else = main slots. Always. 5) Once everything is together, exert pressure along every horizontal, vertical, and front-to-back axis to fully seat all the panels. Go as wide as your arms will allow - it's helpful to tighten multiple joints at once. I'm not sure exactly why; it just seems to work better. After an initial tightening, repeat the whole procedure with more force. You'll feel multiple panels snapping into the fully-inserted position at once. 6) Inspect every joiner block to make sure that every panel connecting to it is fully inserted.

Super easy to put together. The mallet that it comes with is not the greatest but it worked well for its purpose. I saw one review say the plastic bits were a nightmare to put on but I didn’t have any trouble at all and the small mallet helped lock them into place when I needed it. For only $35 this is a great deal. The appearance isn’t too bad especially when I will only be using this for my 7 & 8 year olds clothes! I left the top row middle open as they like to set their clothes out in the morning. Very customizable which I love. Black color is nice and the material is thin but seems strong enough for my purpose with it.

Extremely customizable cubes. At first it seems like they may be a bit hard to put together. I find if I start from the bottom as opposed to the side of a cube and pay attention to the direction of the coupler/connectors, its easy peasy. I am blind totally and do it all by feel. I have made turntable types of storage and bought casters so I can spin it around based upon what sort of activity I am working on. I have built standard even cubes straight up and over and I have build a variety of other types of storage including hampers with dividers that are two cubes deep and the opening is aimed upward rather than outward to the side. three wide so I have a two foot tall, triple bin for color sorting storage hamper for laundry and I also placed casters on that so I can roll it over to the washer and dryer. The casters need to be installed on something solid so I used a small piece of plywood and voila…perfect. I adore these….sincerely. They have salvaged what was let of a disorganized life with a man. Lol :-) I love him, too but…now I can find my stuff when I need it instead of some other random objects now squatting in places where my stuff had previously lived…my stuff now on the lamb and just poof, gone. Lol nobody touches all the cubbies I have around. Ever. I have bought three sets of these so far and a fourth from a different brand as well which I don’t like as much as I like these. I bought the black ones both times. I am about to buy more again. :-) also, if you need to take them apart they are not tat difficult but once I have them the way I like them, I add some glue on the connectors so they stay or if I try to move them with stuff in them, they will, at times, separate and well… that is no fun at all. :-) they are also great in cabinets to increase storage there as mine have some really tall ones with one shelf and unless my cereal and crackers are in boxes that are four feet tall, then its a giant waste of space. Not now. I have cubbies in them now. :-) I also have used zip ties to place an unused panel in front of the opening on cubbies where I have private things I d on’t want being eyed by anyone and use rare earth magnets as closures. Ya have to use something aside from the connectors for a door as when the panels are connected to a coupler/connector, they aren’t able to move like a door swings. If you get yourselves some casters and some zip ties and magnets…the sky is the limit :-) I also use the sides that are just a panel where that can be seen and I paint on them. I use chrome metallic pens or paint and add designs like hearts or stars or flowers or hand prints or whatever i feel like adding. Sometimes I write cool little things on them. “Like “By Thine, Own Hand, Create” goes with a lot of my hand prints. Its fun! On the back of the black ones, chrome paint really stands out.:-) I am working on finding a way to have them hanging but think its not gonna work out. I will have to install a small shelf and then secure the cubbies to that on them bottom so they are sitting on a shelf and anchored to the wall. I just love these. Its totally revolutionized my footwear habits as well. Color codes, organized and never a missing left or right one… I wish I could make a giant lid and I would have a something like a giant pill box of about 4 to 6 cubbies like little toy boxes all connected and with a giant lid and have things of a variety of types in them on my hobby table. Not sure of how well they may work out in the shower to organize so there aren’t random items and bottles of random stuff in there that I have no idea what it all is.not sure about that tho. Have to feasibility test and see if they rust if they stay wet for long since the inner frames are metal f some sort. They do not all have to be attached to the same Built shelves or whatever. I have two here and two there and a few manifestations of cube cubbies strewn about. ;-) I may also buy a set to create a couple of room dividers. Who said I have to use them all as cubbies? I can use the panels and all the connectors to build a moveable wall/room or area divider with a couple panels as feet at the bottomm so it does not fall OR I can put a couple of 90 degree angles in said wall and voila, that will also stand up. :-) these are just so cool. I may get a couple of colors and mix them all up so a set of a few cibbies may be two diff colors. :-)

This organizer was a nightmare to put together! Nice organizer, and pretty strong considering it is made out of plastic, but putting 56 connectors on and putting the shelves in the connectors was painful and very time consuming. You have to get the shelves just right and door ends have to go in the connectors every time! My hands are bruised from putting the connectors on that have to “click” to make sure they are secure. They send you a weak little wooden mallet that does nothing. Can’t say that I would purchase this again. I bought it for my puzzles, which seems to be holding up well so far. Pretty sturdy, just horrible to put together.

Great buy for any kind of storage options. I am using it for my child's toys. There are so many cubicles and holds a lot of toys. The cubes are sturdy and firm and holds heavy objects and is stable. It was easy to install and take off. There are so many ways you can arrange these cubes to fit your specific area. Great for limited areas. Worth the money.

I was looking for a simple yarn storage solution for my mountain of yarn. I wanted something on the cheaper side, but sturdy and looks decent enough to be in a high traffic area. This checked all the boxes for me. The unit is sturdy enough that even when filled with all of my yarn I was able to move it without it collapsing. It was easy to put together and the material seems like it won't damage easily. The only negative thing about these is the material seems to attract dust and hair easily. I got the black color which seems to show that dust more than another color probably would. I also wish that the rack on the side matched the color of the unit. Overall I'm very happy and will be ordering more to add on to what I already have.

So much frustration last night hours spent trying to do six across and it’s still not secure. I really liked the first sets I bought (except the incomplete one I have to return). I showed my preteen a review photo with blue and pink combined in diagonal pattern. She wanted to do that. That one is 6 cubes across and five high. Assembly was almost impossible because in order to really lock all the pieces together you have to be able to spread your arms across the entire structure and squeeze together each row. And push down on the top. I’m 5’6” for reference. The sets I made that were three across and five high are sturdy enough so far but I HAVEN’T hardly put anything on them other than a few clothes or papers on a few cubes yet. Four across and four high ok too I think but I haven’t tried to move that one yet. I can move the three across without damaging it. The six across is a MESS. Make sure you don’t miss a slot in assembly because if you have to go back and correct then the ENTIRE structure is coming apart. But mainly it was just IMPOSSIBLE to snap it all together. My 56 inch tall kid worked with me to assemble then watched her work keep coming apart because she can’t apply the necessary force on one end to partner with me to squeeze the structure in place after it’s all done, but I’m skeptical another adult would have helped because one adult with a LONG arm span needs to be able to reach across and simultaneously squeeze both ends to ensure it’s snapped tight. My kid was using the mallet too to make sure her pieces were in place and I was checking as we went. BUT then here’s the real nightmare, when I tried to move it a few feet across the room. I wanted to tip it over like I did other sets so I could squeeze the structure in place and check for loose points. It kept falling apart. Finally got it against a wall, but it looks wonky and I’m wondering what will happen when we fill it with items. I got it for a child’s collections like Pokemon, Lego and Squishmellow (I initially got other units for my room to organize clothing, but I think records would look nice in it). I hope it doesn’t topple it over on my nine year old or collapse after we use it. Also one panel came torn, but I’m not returning over that. I will return the one very incomplete set. It might be ok but if you’re planning to move it a lot or reconfigure I don’t recommend because it’s too fragile unless you’re creating a small structure. I’ve been moving the three across I made fine in my own room (with nothing on it yet), but if I had to move on stairs or through a hall would worry any bump might pop the connectors out.

(My room is a bit messy right now haha) I ordered this for yarn storage, and it has exceeded expectations! It’s super easy to assemble and you don’t even really need the provided instructions, but they’re helpful anyway! The cubes are actually slightly larger than I expected, but that works perfectly for me. The stability is great as well, you can see how much I have in it in my picture! The frame of each of the squares is metal/aluminum, and the actual square itself is more of a thin vinyl than a hard plastic, but that doesn’t take away from the sturdiness or quality. Overall 9.5/10 would recommend!

Super práctico! Se monta muy fácil y puedes hacer los bloques como quieras. No se puede poner mucho peso en cada balda pero para figuras y demás cosas como lo tengo yo va genial!

je recommande, déjà la 3 ème

I Love how this goes together, (fairly easy) looks awesome and fits quite a bit. Can change the design. Put it in my son’s room for dvd’s and toys. It’s Worth it.

Top product heel handig en snel te monteren. Zo blij met mn aankoop.
