KOUSILarge Cube Storage - 14"x18" Depth Cube (8 Cubes) Cube Organizer Cube Storage Shelves Cubby Organizing Closet Storage Organizer Cabinet Shelving Bookshelf Toy Organizer, White

Assembly NIGHTMARE. This is really poorly designed! I think it took about 2 hours total to make sure everything was fully in place (or as close as possible). It's MUCH more difficult than it should be to press the frames completely into the connectors. Especially when you have to press several into place at the same time, from all sides/dimensions. And the little wooden mallet is useless. I had trouble even whacking it hard with a big metal hammer. It was incredibly frustrating to have to hit/press/hammer so hard to TRY to get a stubborn one into place, only to have others pop out of place. It was never-ending. The way it's designed, there's too often no good place or method to get leverage and hold onto the other end of a piece you're trying to connect. And this was with TWO people - I don't even want to imagine putting this together by myself. I honestly almost slammed my hammer through one of the panels out of frustration.Whew. Ultimately I'm glad I didn't destroy it. Though I definitely have concerns about its stability, it offers a lot of space for a good price. It's lightweight, and the shelves hold a lot. It's great that it's 18" deep, which is maybe the main reason I bought it. Most cubes/systems are 11" deep, and maybe a few 14" instead. But I'm using this (basically as a dresser) in my closet which is about 22" deep, so it's the perfect size and best use of the space! The top is JUST below the rod for hanging clothes - as perfect a fit as possible. It looks decent - cheap materials but doesn't matter much since it's out of sight in my closet.It's worth repeating that I have concerns about its stability. I tried so hard to click every connector/frame fully into place, but that's nearly impossible. Some of the frame rods were easily bent just trying to force them into place. Again, this is clearly pretty poor design that makes it borderline shoddy. I can't imagine that anyone could get it perfectly connected and straight/flush. And the doors don't sit perfectly right - some are slightly off. Not always a big deal, except when you try to open just one but it catches another door above or below it. A few days ago this happened and the unexpected extra door opened directly into my eye. I was NOT happy. Fingers crossed that it will hold up well enough and not fall apart, though I won't be shocked if it doesn't hold up.In summary - bad design that makes assembly an incredibly frustrating nightmare of impossibility and imperfection. REALLY bad for perfectionists. But ample storage space, a good price/value, and MAYBE will stand up over time. We'll see about that. If it doesn't, I may come back here and edit my review.

First, it is flimsy although the description suggests it is strong and rigid. Second, it comes with this useless mallet thing for assembly - through it away and use an actual mallet - you'll hurt yourself when the head flies off. Third, the connector plastic pieces are weird - there is no orientation for them that actually gets them out of the way, and you need to plan in advance how to place and position them. If you screw up, and you will, the assembled unit won't sit right. It's also very easy to leave out pieces and tough to get them back together later. The connectors alone don't really do the job - when you're done you need to attach these tiny little clips that keeps it all together. That brings me to the heading comment - this is pitched as a good storage unit for kids. Those plastic clips are a serious choking hazard for young kids - please be extremely careful. Also, if you don't assure that each and every connector is fully engaged, it will tip, tilt or fall apart. The instructions aren't completely terrible, but they aren't nearly as helpful as they should be. Finally, there's no way it can hold as much weight as they suggest... and you need to be very aware of the center of gravity when you load the bins.That all said, I actually figured it would be a little flimsy given the price and the photos, and for me it was a reasonable purchase that I am OK with, but I do feel that the descriptions are misleading and you need to really read between the lines before purchasing.

When I purchased the product I was so happy how fast and quick it was to put together. It looks very nice and they even supply you with hanging rack so that you can hang your clothes on one side and create shelf storage on the other. They supply you with all of the tools needed to help build and assemble this unit. The downside is that the unit is not sturdy at all. When I first assembled the unit I had one side hanging up clothes and the other side was just shelf space. Later that night the whole unit collapsed. I figured it only collapsed because I had too many clothes hanging in the unit and I probably had too many things in the shelf space. To be clear on the hanging side I only had three sweaters and a jacket hanging up. And on the shelf side I only had two boxes filled with shirts and underwear. The second time assembling the unit I chose to take out the entire hanging up section and just make the unit completely shelf space. A few days later one side of the unit completely collapsed but this time I make sure that I had way less stuff packed inside the unit so that it wouldn’t fall another time but it did. I rebuilt it this time and make sure that I put way less stuff inside now practically making the unit just for show. I constantly find myself having to fix loose shelves constantly seeing shelves and doors popping out of places constantly seeing the little white things that they give you to hold the shelves into place are always falling out and pieces of the unit coming down along with it. Recently two shelves have fell out of place out of nowhere and the entire thing collapsed again, I am tired of having to constantly reassemble and fix this product so I am returning it. This product is a good buy if you have no problem reassembling the unit at least twice a week.

Most of the pictures show this being used as furniture, but it doesn't have the stability or finish for that. Should've figured, for the price! It's a nice-looking organizer for your closet, not a cheap piece of furniture for your living room. The panels are thin plastic stretched taut over a wire frame and glued down. On the white one, the panels are slightly translucent, so you can see the glued edge and at least the outline of whatever's inside.I bought this because I wanted some closed pantry/kitchen storage and it didn't work for that, but I also needed a closet organizer so I kept it for that purpose. The modular construction is a nice feature and is why I was able to repurpose it, I have a couple of small cubby stacks and a few spare parts but that's OK.
