ClosetMaid Decorative Open Back 4-Cube Storage Organizer, White

This is a dream. Went together in 15 minutes 1 person. Super sturdy. Does not look cheap. Thick pieces. No wobble. Exact measurements.

Incredible piece of furniture! Extremely easy to assemble and very sturdy. I put it together in less than twenty minutes. At a price under eighty dollars, this organizer has the look, durability and functionality of a very expensive cabinet that would cost perhaps a couple of hundred dollars. We have it housing more than 300 long play record albums with room for more! A terrific find.

easy to assemble, good size, perfect to put inside closet to organize my things.. same quality as any I have ever seen.

This cube organizer has been a game changer for our home. It holds the standard 13x13 baskets perfectly, giving me a clean and polished look while hiding all the little odds and ends. I’ve used it in both the bedroom and living room, and it blends seamlessly with different décor styles. Assembly wasn’t complicated, and once it’s set up, it feels very sturdy. Each cubby is roomy enough for books, décor, electronics, or even bulkier items. I’ve had cheaper cube shelves before, and they always seemed wobbly—this one feels like it will hold up well over time. If you love the basket + cube system for both looks and function, this organizer is definitely worth it. Highly recommend!

purchased two of these units, and just finished assembling the first of them. To begin with, shipping was much faster than expected--despite an estimated delivery date of tomorrow (January 25), the package arrived two days ago, just ahead of the winter storm that you're all sick of hearing about. Packaging was...confusing. Both boxes were wedged diagonally into a much larger shipping box which could probably have held a medium-sized refrigerator, with nothing more than some brown paper tossed in to prevent shifting. However, the inner boxes did hold up pretty well, and at least on the one I've put together everything came through undamaged. Assembly was fairly easy, although the diagrams provided leave quite a bit to be desired. If you are completely lost in assembling anything more complex than a sandwich, you'll want to find someone else to do it for you...but if you can puzzle out some of the less-than-precise instructions, you'll be fine. The assembly instructions indicate that glue (not included) must be used to hold some of the wooden dowels in place, but I opted to skip that step and see no loss in sturdiness as a result. You will need to have a philips head screwdriver and a small hammer available. As far as construction goes, I did find one dowel hole which had been drilled far too deep, but this was "fixed" by stuffing a piece of plastic into the hole. Again, the instructions are not the most detailed I've ever seen, so you'll want to be careful in ensuring that all of the finished sides are facing the same direction before screwing anything in (particularly if you do use glue). However, once you have everything lined up properly the screws go in easily and the finished product looks as nice as can be expected in the price range, and it is quite sturdy. Additional wall-mounting brackets are provided for those who plan to stack units. The cubby holes on the second level are pretty small, which will limit their usefulness. Large enough for a few books or compact discs, but you're not going to get much more in there. With the backing nailed in place it's also unlikely you'll be able to use them for shoes, unless you wear a particularly small size. The spaces on the bottom are much wider, however, and the backing strip does not cover these. The firmness of the build allows for larger items to be stored on top as well; I currently have a laundry hamper sitting on the top shelf, with no bowing apparent. Overall, worth the $35-40 price point, but not something you can use in place of a dresser or bookshelf and certainly not an item to be passed down for generations. I'll update as necessary over time. Update 3/21/17: More than a year later, nothing has changed. Unit one is still supporting a heavy laundry hamper and showing no signs of wear, while my old CPU has found a place atop the second unit which is also holding up beautifully. At this point I can comfortably say that only things holding this item back from a 5-star review are the poor assembly instructions included and the small storage areas inside the units. Other than those two items, a very well-engineered product which is quite fairly priced.

This cube shelving is great - and easy to put together! We have them for extra storage using the recommended cube inserts - looks neat and holds a lot. Couldn't be happier with the look and functionality.

This shelving unit contained five pieces to assemble. FOUR of the five were defective or flawed. There are three shelf pieces, see first photo and notice the trim sides are not the same length. Two of the shelves had the trim attached to the wrong side which meant the guide holes were also on the wrong sides. In my third picture you can see how mismatched the size of the shelf is compared to the piece it’s supposed to screw into. In addition to two defective unusable shelves, there were also guide holes missing from all three shelves. Each shelf should have four guide holes but each only had two. Since the shelves were defective it didn’t matter because we were unable to assemble it, but I need to mention all of the flaws. And the final flaw was on one of the end pieces, there was a corner where the black finished surfaces don’t meet squarely and the raw unfinished surface is visible. Four out of five pieces were manufactured incorrectly, that’s 80%!! If you’re considering this unit do yourself a huge favor and go buy ikea kallax instead

Great cubes, good quality and easy to put together.

Low quality

Super easy assembly. Feels solid and looks good. For the price this was perfect for our needs.

As described. Quick to assemble. Edges easily scratch though.

Absolutely worth it. The size is more than generous, and it’s quite sturdy and strong.

Everything arrived in good condition, was very easy to assemble, and feels very sturdy and strong. Would definitely order again if we need a second unit. Only complaint is the price seems a bit expensive for such a simple and plain cube shelving unit.
