SONGMICS Cube Storage Organizer, Set of 12 Plastic Cubes, Book Shelf, Closet Organizers and Storage, Room Organization, Bedroom Living Room, 12.2 x 36.6 x 48.4 Inches, Black ULPC34BK

I bought these as an alternative to a room divider so I didn't assemble them into cubes. I decided on my own configuration. I did 7x7 with some supports on sides and middle. Much less expensive than room dividers and these can either be painted or left semi opaque to keep natural light while providing some separation.They assembled easily. Embrace the click and use the provided mallet. Gaps increase with mistakes and make it harder to put together. Do one layer at a time, moving horizontally.The packaging was streamline and not too heavy.These ha e improved with time. I have ones from decades ago and they never stop being useful. They are easy to haul and put back together.

The shelf unit itself is quite sturdy. When I connected everything, I heard a click and knew that's when the pieces were into their correct spots. Everything fits snugly and there nothing is loose or gaping. I don't have heavy things on it so I can't comment on each cubes durability in itself but overall I think it's a good value for your money if you want to store toys, clothes, shoes, on it.My package came with a few extra connectors, but the exact number of panels that was specified. I managed to build 17/18-ish cubes with the top row missing backs. If you want to build a design that's different from what was recommended (the 4x4 or the 5-4-3-2-1), I recommend you draw out the designs beforehand and count out how many panels and connectors you need before physically attempting to build it. It's a bit difficult to take the connectors apart and you'll get frustrated in the end once you realize you don't have all the pieces you need to build your desired shape. Note that with each unique configuration, the number of panels differ because you might lose out on a shared panel, thus might think you're missing a piece when you really aren't. They stated the pack comes with 56 pieces and that's what I got. (I do wish it came with 57 because I was able to figure out a few more designs with 57 panels).There is a bit of an odor but it doenst necessarily smell bad. It doesn't bother me that much but I did wipe it down with some disinfectant wipes and sprayed some perfume on it. The smell still lingers, but again, it doesn't smell bad so it doesn't bother me that much, but I do wish it was odorless.

Overall, I am very happy with the cubbies. It is perfect for closet organization and seems sturdy. However, this is extremely difficult to put together. The plastic connectors do not go on easily, it takes a lot of strength and finagling, even with the included mallet, to get them to snap on to the dividers. I couldn’t do it all in one sitting, it was frustrating and physically taxing. Way more difficult than a regular flat pack furniture assembly. I personally wish I just bought a cheap wooden cubby shelf. BUT, and this is a big but, there are some things that give this system the edge if you are willing to deal with the assembly:1. The customization options are endless. You can choose exactly how to configure the cubbies, you are not locked in to a square.2. It is very lightweight, would be great for a dorm room. I can pick it up with one hand, or you could break it down and pack it in a small box. Moving would be super easy.3. Depending on how you configure this, you can break it into multiple shelving units, so great value for money.4. You can seamlessly expand it by buying additional sets.

Purchased as yarn storage and it’s exactly what I was looking for! Relatively easy to put together although it did take some time. But it’s more than sturdy enough for what I needed. Would buy again and may eventually get another set so I can add to the existing structure

I bought the brown design and was hoping the design was not too much, but it's perfect. I have brown and black decor and it goes well with it. The quality is pretty good, stands on carpet nicely without wobble, but I only have 2 levels x 4 cubes in each level. The size is perfect, the 11" cube is great for storing things. This works well for our big family with little room to put things as in Florida we did not have basements. The hammer it comes with is great, one usually gets this light weight wood hammer, I am keeping this one for future use.

Separated for two shoe spaces as the room couldn’t handle a 16 storage shoe 👠 space but definitely easy to assemble and Very sturdy!! Right price and again easy assembly

The media could not be loaded. This product is extremely easy to put together, I love the look, and I love that it is super lightweight and reconfigurable. I also love that the connector pieces that hold the panels together because they work very well. BUT I find it to be overpriced for what it is; it is super thin sheets of plastic. If you want something that can actually hold books and anything that is over a pound or two but still like the “wood” look I recommend doing what I did and getting a metal wire shelving unit and mix the pieces together. I put the same amount of books, which weren’t that heavy, onto the plastic and it sagged almost an inch, meanwhile the metal shelf doesn’t not have that same problem. I wish that they made shelves that had the plastic wrapped around the metal. (In the photo of the completed product fully set up in my room, the pig Lego set and my boots are on the plastic shelves, the rest of the books are on the metal shelving.)

Love the product, strong, easy to assemble.
