Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

If you are looking for inexpensive DVD, Blu-ray and/or CD storage, this is it! I bought two of these for my growing Blu-ray and existing DVD collection and have them on either side of a similarly colored desk in my home office. Pros: - Excellent pricing - Easy setup/assembly - 6 Adjustable shelves - 2 Fixed shelves - Compact (fits in a variety of places, either together or separate) Cons: - Shelves were designed for maximum use by CD cases, not Blu-ray or DVD (even less so for DVDs) - Excess particle board splintering inside locking cam-bolts(?) - Instability while putting together can lead to breakage (if you're not careful) With that, I can say that I am VERY pleased with these units. Despite some reviews stating that they fell apart or were shoddily crafted pieces of junk, I found them quite the opposite. Especially as they are laminated particle board. As such, here is how I made sure they were as solid as could be: - Clean out the cam bolt holes of all excess particle board splinters and mis-drilled pieces! (then blow it out with your breath or a can of compressed air to make sure no little pieces are in the holes) - This allows the cams to fit into their holes properly, assuring a good lock on the cam, when tightened) - Use glue! - Specifically in the dowel holes! - Elmer's glue or wood glue works perfectly. - Squirt a little bit into each hole that the dowels connect into. (You'll quickly learn how much is needed after the first two) Be sure to keep a moistened washcloth handy to wipe up any extra glue! - After putting the unit together, be sure to go back one last time and make sure the cam bolts are tight! - When putting on the backing, the best place to do so is on a set of stairs (at the top, of course) so that the "foot" portion that keeps these units stable is not holding the rest of the unit in the air, creating a break hazard!
