Mainstays 9-Cube Storage Organizer Bookcase, Black

This unit is the most sturdy I have put together in many years. I have recently moved and have put together many, many items like this recently. It is really sturdy and looks great. It uses actual screws and nails. The directions were easy to understand and follow. This was a great purchase!

it was incredibly easy to put together. it would feel more sturdy if i connected it to the wall but honestly holds up fine since i dont pull on it. one of the cheaper storage unit options so feel the price is comparable though maybe slightly over priced (isnt everything though?)

Love Mainstays as a brand — affordable and always stylish, fits my aesthetic perfectly. This cube shelf is no exception. I love that you can customize with different colored bins to personalize it exactly how you want. Great value and looks great in the room.

I have bought cube storage over the years and this build is kinda a pain by yourself. make sure you have space. You only screw in the outside boards and the rest is held with pegs. For YouTubers, this would be up there with IKEA building-if you know what I mean. this board falls, pick it up the otherside falls. My kid tried to help but yeah... so beware BUT totally worth me freaking out. I've got 2. The kids TV is 43" and that's the biggest you can go with this. Also bought colored storage cubes for color pop.

Great organizer shelf and we love the Target branded cubby shelfs as it doesn’t have visible particle board showing on one side like others. It’s great for the price. You could always do a DIY project with it to create something in your home or office. It’s not a sturdy shelf but it does the job overall. It can easily scratch and get water damage but its a good shelf for the price, it could probably be a cheaper shelf but its works.

The shelf looks good enough, but was difficult to put together. And once it was finished, it wasn't sturdy at all. I'm afraid to put it in my granddaughter's room for books or toys. I'm afraid it will collapse on her. I bought two and am returning the one I did not put together yet. The moral of of the story is you get what you pay for. I paid $25 more for one from Ikea, but it has taken a beating and continues to stand! I'll go grab another from there.

plastic dowels too small for the project type. most cheap cabinets have a solid piece of cardboard to hold the back together, not this one... its a couple small pieces. screws immediately strip out the worst mdf board ive ever come across. currently adding wood glue, brackets, and a proper backing. bought on sale (shocking i know) some deals are too good to be true DO NOT BUY

I haven’t bought a cube shelf in years, but I was in need of one for my kid’s room and thus ordered from Walmart. However, upon assembling the unit, I was dismayed to find the plastic dowels provided were flimsy and insufficient. Following a fruitless search for suitable dowels, I planned to employ wood hot glue to reinforce the structure. Unfortunately, the assembly process was further compromised when the components malfunctioned, bending the plastic dowels and breaking the cheap particleboard. $45 on this unit and $20 on additional materials. I will proceed with returning the defective shelf tomorrow.

Despite the packaging attempts that were clearly used to try and prevent surface damage to the pieces- there were several pieces broken, scratched, or visually damaged. We have a few of these cubes from Walmart and this one was the only one like that- so maybe just a fluke.

Literally fell apart as soon as we put it together followed directions the dowels are plastic and the boards blew out zero stability do not recommend for any valuable items or use in bedroom especially don’t recommend for your classroom or children’s room this couldn’t hold a piece of paper let alone your valuables or artwork
