Customer Reviews
Great shelf, going back to buy a second
I don't write many reviews but I was delighted by this shelf and it well exceeded my expectations.
You won't get it together in "only minutes" (alone, took just under an hour) but the final product is really nice and elegant for the price. Higher quality than expected, just don't expect the moon. It's sturdy. The fabric totes are cheap and cute and an easy way to express your style or personalize your shelf. The totes themselves are somewhat stiff fabric and also studier than expected.
Some reviews said screws in the finished product are left exposed but I think that has been corrected as my unit came with screw covers. I think the whole thing finishes quite nicely. A little tap of the hammer gets the cover even with the wood. Also there were no holes left exposed from optional dollies, there were matching dolly-hole stoppers included. I had no issues with drill holes absent, all of mine were present.
My very basic little electric screwdriver did the job just fine, but it says you can use a regular screwdriver if you don't have a drill.
I absolutely recommend this product to someone looking for storage or organization on a budget, I found the lowest price at my Target store, and the bins were cheap too.

Easy to assemble and looks nice--skip the backing!
I put two of these together in less than an hour with nothing more than a Phillips screwdriver. They look great and are sturdy. The backing pieces are less attractive (basically, folded cardboard), but I wasn't planning to use them anyway. I recommend that you save a lot of time and trouble--and get a more handsome shelf--by omitting the backing. We're using these as a bookshelf and drawer-storage unit in my daughter's room, and she is thrilled with the way they look. The fabric drawers (available in many colors) look terrific, fit like a glove, and hold a ton of stuff!

An okay item, if you get it on sale...
We bought this over the weekend, from Target actually, not this seller. It was on sale for $[...]. After spending about 45 minutes trying to figure out their assembly diagrams(they only provide drawings, not written instructions)I gave up, threw the instructions away and decided to go it alone. Once I did that, assembly was MUCH easier. The illustrations they provide do not accurately indicate which board to use for which piece. They don't even have the boards marked 'A' or 'B' as some other brands do, so as to give you a little bit of help. They need some quality control on the instructions front, but once I got the product put together, I am happy with it for a 7 year old girls room. The quality is typical of what you usually find for RTA furniture.
There are probably products out there by other manufacturer's that have just as good quality, but are easier to put together. But, if you can get it on sale and have some patience...go for it!

Do not buy!
This product sells for 49.99 in the Target stores. All of the colors that you can get for this shelf system is now 49.99. That includes the cherry, espresso, green, white, and all other colors!!!

Great Unit!
I recently purchased this unit for our playroom/den. It is perfect for holding and organizing small toys! It is true that the backings did not line up exactly but they were easy enough to adjust.
