ASSEMBLERS BEWARE !!!!!!! (Tryana, Coastal Maine, 2008-01-26)

Wonderful functional design but first you have to get it put together...... This company seriously needs a good technical writer. The instructions are so poorly written that they don't even tell you the correct tools to use. If possible, either you or one of your helpers should have experience with DIY assembly furniture. If you don't, just remember this: you are not working with real wood. It is sawdust or wood chips mixed with glue covered by wood-grain printed laminate plastic and paper ("manufactured wood products"). You get only one chance at installing fasteners/pieces. Mess that up and all that's left is scrap. Don't even think about gluing it. WARNING #1: Read all instructions through. SEVERAL OF THE ILLUSTRATIONS SHOW THE COMPONENTS BEING ASSEMBLED IN AN UPSIDE-DOWN POSITION WITHOUT CLEARLY MARKING IT AS SUCH. THIS MAKES IT EASY TO MAKE MAJOR ERRORS - ATTACHING PIECES INSIDE OUT, UPSIDE-DOWN, ETC.. Use a red pencil to clearly mark such pieces on the instruction sheet. WARNING #2: INSTRUCTIONS DO NOT SHOW PROPER TOOLS NEEDED. A #3 SCREWDRIVER AND RUBBER MALLET are needed, not the regular hammer and slotted screwdriver shown. Use a red pencil to mark all screw-in fasteners and friction-fit plastic dowels. Be especially careful with the rear pieces that attach the cubbyhole unit to the wall. Though the flanges bear the full weight of the unit plus all the stuff you will eventually pile on and into it, they consist of unreinforced chipboard, some very cheesy stuff indeed, so handle it with care, especially when first hanging the unit. Enlist the help of at least one, preferably two, helpers. It doesn't have to be the project from down below if you take your time and pay attention to what you're doing. Heed all of this devil's advocate advice and you'll have something well worth the effort. Enjoy.

Looks great but beware... (LICQNY, Queens, NY, 2008-03-14)

I love the look of this piece, but wasn't crazy about putting it together. I think I'm pretty handy, and it wasn't that it was difficult to assemble, but it was the way it attaches to the wall. You assemble the entire unit and then there are two slotted boards left over - one attaches to the unit and one to the wall. They then essentially lock into one another to secure the piece on the wall. This doesn't leave me feeling that I could put a lot of coats on the hooks or anything with any sort of weight in the shelves. Basically - it's a nice unit for a few coats and maybe winter wear (gloves, hats, scarves), but not much else.

Excellent product! (MaryanneA, Boston, MA, 2008-05-04)

I purchased this for our entryway to replace our old coat rack. We put it together relatively easily, and it looks great hanging up. We didn't buy the matching bench, since we already had one. I especially like the cubbies, which are really roomy. We store all our gloves, hats, keys, etc in the cubbies. We've got lots of weight on it (several heavy winter jackets, several bags, umbrellas, etc) and it's holding up very well. We've had it for a little over a month now, and we haven't had a single problem. The color is just a flat black, which should fit in nicely pretty much anywhere.

sonoma cubby shelf (K789, Peekskill ,Westchester Co, NY, 2008-03-21)

had intended to return this as it wasn't the color I wanted (my mistake) but it is a lovely looking piece so decided to use it anyway. It had limited instructions but I have had experience with this type of instructions and figured it out after a while. It is quite heavy which surprised me. It has not been mounted yet so cannot give you any more info.

not for super heavy things (literaryacorn, Northeast Kingdom, VT, 2008-04-21)

I assembled and hung this shelf alone -- was not terribly difficult. I am concerned about the mounting strip -- is the shelf going to give way and fall off the wall in the middle of the night? Hasn't happened yet after a month of hanging tight... Overall very happy with shelf and matching bench - perfect size for my mudroom.
