ECR4Kids ELR-0419 Birch 5-Section School Classroom Storage Cabinet with Casters, Commercial or Personal Storage, Kids’ Storage Organizer Shelf, Friendly Design, Certified and Safe, 24” High, Natural

Algunas de las piezas venían mal terminadas, tuve que lijarlas para darles el terminado adecuado y no astillarme o que mi niña se astillara. Por todo lo demás está genial, tamaño, color (qué ojalá tuvieran más colores disponibles), muy fácil de armar y espacio interior.

This is a great storage cabinet. The wheels are a plus - I wasn't sure if I would like them, but I put them on and I am happy to have them. The instructions were pictures only - but easy to follow and the boards were labeled (something you don't always find.) I probably could have done it myself, but my husband helped and it went a lot faster. Using a drill stripped one of the screw heads- but we were able to work around that-just make sure if you use a drill, you go slow. The quality is great - the front and sides have a smooth rolled edge - not sure if I am wording that correctly. It was easy to put together - and they give you one extra of each screw, etc. Which was good - because I got one of them confused...user error - not their fault. I have bought three different brands of storage for our playroom, and I am happiest with the finish and quality of this one. It was a bit more expensive than the others - but overall worth it. It is quite sturdy as well. Looks like it will last. If I could change anything, I would not have the brand name at the bottom on the front. I almost didn't buy it because of that. It does hold larger books - just not really tall ones. The next size up which is six inches taller would most likely fit almost all books. It is not very tall - so the perfect size for toddlers to be able to reach what is on top without having to climb. I have a grand that is a climber - so this is really important to me.

I LOVE these shelves. I love that the 24" comes exactly to the height of the window sills in my 1908 house. I love that they are made of solid, laminated birch and that the laminations are so beautifully done, they look like art, not plywood. I love that the shelves have low casters, hidden under a bottom skirt, so that even when full they move smoothly and easily when Christmas comes and we want to put the tree in front of a window. I love that they hold a lot, that the light finish is durable & lasting, that you would never in a million years suspect these of being classroom furniture, yet they cost far less than a comparable "proper" living room bookshelf would cost. The only extra work they take is the removal of the wood-burned logo in the center of the bottom skirt. I don't like logo wear anywhere, and especially not on my furniture, so before assembly, I simply take a little time to lightly hand-sand the area until the wood-burned design is gone. Adds maybe 10-15 work to the total, but they go together so easily, even the extra work doesn't make assembly a big deal. There are two of these in my living room, now, and I have other areas in the house where I'd like to replace cheaper and/or chunkier shelves, or totally different pieces of furniture, with more of these. They're just so pretty, and so practical, why wouldn't I?

Very nice piece of furniture. It was fairly easy to assemble (the quarter turn screws were annoying but that’s not the furniture’s fault), sturdy, and attractive. Two pieces had slightly chipped laminate but it’s not obvious as the pieces are not outward-facing. I love that it’s plywood and not particle board. A little pricey, but it’s a good bookshelf.

I have no complaints except the instructions aren't the clearest. These shelves are solid, were easy for me to put together alone (once divider orientation was figured out), and are great in the nursery. They hold lots of items, especially with organizer baskets, and aren't a big risk of tipping due to the shorter height of 24" and a base depth of 13". They also seem to hold up so far to my kiddo banging his toys all over them. I chose not to use the casters, as my kid would just skate the shelves around the room if I did. The instructions are lacking. If you want pictures that demonstrate proper orientation, you will not get it. Step 1, the top divider goes onto the side with only 1 set of holes and the screws go into the bottom side where there are 3 sets of holes (two sets with plastic inserts). The slots in the wood need to all face to the back to hold the back panels, so watch your orientation with that as well. This is not clearly indicated in the pictures. It's easy to figure out if you have had to build a lot of pack flat furniture, but it may lose some people who haven't. Do not over tighten the pins that go in the plastic inserts, this can cause them to angle oddly, and then that can pull the plastic out when you go to put the pins in the dividers. It didn't happen with these for me, but it's happened with similar designs in the past, and I have seen review pictures where it looked like that had happened on these shelves. Over all, I have 3 of these and love them so far. If I needed more storage space, I wouldn't hesitate getting more. These beat those easily scratchable melamine laminate units, and easily chipable particle board units, any day of the week.
