38.75" Double Tower Media Storage

Most importantly, this shelf is manufactured in the USA by Prepac. With that being said, the fitment and quality of the pieces and hardware of this shelf is much better than what I've experienced building similar shelves from overseas. There weren't any fitment issues with the pieces or location of the holes drilled. For the price, you're getting a great shelf even though it's particle board and "engineered" wood. The flatpack box it comes in is approximately 63 inches long, 7 inches wide and 7 inches thick and weighs about 60lbs, which is quite heavy. Easy to assemble as there aren't many unique parts for the brief instructions. As others have stated, use a little bit of wood glue on the pegs and mating surfaces to make the self more sturdy, not a lot is required, just a few drops. The shelves are configurable after the shelf is built very easily. Although the shelflets don't extend all the way to the backboard leaving a small 1/4 inch gap where small or thin items can fall through. Primarily meant for physical media in their cases. Configured for DVD's, you'll get 6 usable spaces per column with an extra smaller space as seen in the picture. For Blurays or Nintendo Switch game cases, you can get 7 or 8 spaces per column with an extra space. The shelf base is thicker than the shelves giving them stability and the unit comes with plastic feet that tack nail into the bottom base for hardwood floors. Handsome black finish that seems less prone to chipping verses other cheaper units i've assembled from overseas. It finally includes a zip-tie style wall anchor, important if you live in a household with small children or pets, for tip-over safety. As an assembly tip, the extra particle board piece you get in the box (which isn't used for the shelf itself) is actually used to stand the shelf face-down level as the top is slightly shorter than the longer base, helpful to have since the backboard is held in place with tack nails which are provided in the hardware kit.

Most of this type of furniture I find disappointing, but was pleasantly surprised with this unit. The build quality is top-notch compared to most laminate-wrapped particleboard furniture. As the price and style indicate, this isn't heirloom quality, but it is well made, goes together easily, and looks good. The price seems pretty reasonable. Assembly took a little under an hour by myself. The best bit of assembly advice is to drill pilot holes for nailing the backer boards on. The nails themselves are sort of cheap and bend easily, but there are lots of them. I also laid it down to attach the backer boards instead of standing it up as the instructions stated. Since kiddos aren't a concern here and it is sitting on tile, I did not attach the anchors. It seems quite stable without them, and I'll be adding more books to the bottom shelf. The unit I received did not have any of the issues some others have reported. No scratches, missing parts, etc. I think it looks good and I'm happy to have my CDs out again.

At this point, I've bought and assembled 4 Double Width, 1 Triple Width and 1 Quad Width Wall Storage Cabinets (each are separate product listings on Amazon), to fill half a room with media storage, and I've been satisfied with Prepac's product. Each of the cabinets arrived without anything but the most minor cosmetic damage. All of the proper parts, hardware and instructions have been included, and assembly has been relatively simple. A power drill has been helpful to get the longer base screws into all of the vertical panels, but I have used a manual screwdriver to get them in as well. The composite board these are made from is relatively dense, giving the cabinets some weight and durability. The included nail-on gliders on the bottom helped me get the cabinets in place without scratching the floor. The cabinets are strong enough to completely fill with CDs, DVDs and or blu-rays without any bowing, leaning, or other concerns with the build quality. They're strong and stable enough, as long as they're against the wall. NOTE: These are made to be at least placed against walls, if not fastened to walls. For stability, the bases protrude about 3 inches in front and almost 2 inches on each side, but not at all in the back, so if not at least placed against a wall, it can tip over backward pretty easily. I've arranged my room to place 2 of the cabinets back-to-back and that's been stable. As for the hardware included to fasten them to walls, people seem to complain about these, and prefer finding their own solution for that. I've been fine with setting them along my walls, and back-to-back. The most trouble I've had with assembly is properly lining up and nailing on the hard paperboard backings and fitting the metal shelf pegs into the interior holes, as some of them can be pretty tight. I've used light tapping with a mallet and learned not to push them in all the way if they're hard to get in there, and that's worked well for me if I need to remove them to adjust the shelves. My all-over satisfaction with all of the various Prepac cabinets has been generally high. They do the job well, but don't reach my highest ideal. I decided to go with these after reading reviews and considering the alternatives, this seemed like my best option without spending a lot more, having shelves custom-built, et cetera. One thing I'd have really appreciated with the double-width and triple-width cabinets is if they were taller by the height of 1 or 2 CD sized shelves. That would make the cabinets the best size for CD, DVD and blu-ray cases to be placed on shelves vertically, meaning 9-10 CD case shelves tall, 6-7 DVD case shelves tall, or 7-8 blu-ray case shelves tall. The way these are, if you space the shelves for the height of the cases, you can have 6 blu-ray-height shelves with room left over, or 5 DVD-height shelves with room left over for 1 shelf of CDs. If you're not storing CDs in there, you can have an extra shelf where you stack cases on their sides, but another 5 1/2 inches of height would have gone a long way. As these are, the height is only slightly over half the height of my walls, but they still offer a lot of storage. The quad-width cabinet is taller, meaning significantly more shelving for movies. Here are my notes on actual, real world storage capacity, using real disc cases, and ensuring they fit comfortably in the shelves without squeezing them in too tightly. For CDs, I used all standard single-width jewel cases for measurement. For DVDs, I used all standard-width DVD cases. For blu-rays, the cases range in width so often, and also often blu-rays are sold with slipcovers, in steelbooks, etc., I used the average single releases in my collection. If you're storing only the normal slim blue cases, you'll be able to fit more blu-rays on the shelves. Also, this reporting is based on storage similar to described above, without consideration for stacking cases in horizontally to use up the excess space, also without consideration for being able to place anything on top of the cabinets. 40 CDs per shelf: double width cabinet capacity (16 shelves) = 640 CDs; triple width cabinet capacity (24 shelves) = 960 CDs; quad width cabinet capacity (38 shelves) = 1,520 CDs 28 DVDs per shelf: double width cabinet capacity (10 shelves) = 280 DVDs; triple width cabinet capacity (15 shelves) = 420 DVDs; quad width cabinet capacity (26 shelves) = 728 DVDs 30 blu-rays wide per shelf: double width cabinet capacity (12 shelves) = 360 blu-rays; triple width cabinet capacity (18 shelves) = 540 blu-rays; quad width capacity (30 shelves) = 900 blu-rays I can recommend these cabinets to anyone who doesn't need anything too fancy. They do make my large collection look handsome, and they're good, stable shelves. They're pretty clearly composite board cabinets I bought and assembled, not pieces of hardwood furniture, but they're nice for what they are. They're available and affordable. After buying 6 cabinets of varying sizes and having no significant complaint about them, the Prepac cabinets get my stamp of approval.

I give five stars not because it's a premium piece of solid hardwood furniture - but because I think it's a great value for its price point, particularly at the discount that appeared on the day I committed the purchase. The overall quality is about as good as we see for these kinds of kits. If you've never assembled anything similar, you may face some frustrations but if you have, you're probably going the extra mile by using wood glue on the areas where edges meet, on the dowel pins, and most especially the backing. As the instructions advised, make sure you have at least the center shelves in place, stood up once first and make sure the assembled frame is level before you work on the backing. And I recommend you apply the backing with it face down, get your panels aligned so the edges all meet the middle of the sections you're going to nail to, and you must nail very carefully to the edges. Put your three backings down, and squeeze the assembly left to right to close gaps, use something heavy to weight down each side of your panels so they don't shift around, while you open one side of a Time carefully and apply thin layer of wood glue everywhere it contacts, but not so much it's going to bleed out of the edges. Drops would be fine. The particle board edges will absorb glue quickly so you have to work fast. I hustled laying down a glue layer first, quickly compressed it together and nailed corners, then nailed the midway points, finally making rounds until it's all secured. Using glue on final assembly carefully will make it structurally more solid, and the backing is important for structural stability. I ended up with a perfectly level assembly all said and done and I finally have a singular container for all my media.

These shelves are amazing. I put them together by myself in less than an hour--followed the instructions exactly and had no issues whatsoever. They were super sturdy even without the interior shelves in, and once fully put together, were even more solid. They were dirty, but I just wiped every piece with a wet rag as I unboxed them. There were no scratches or other defects. And they hold a TON. I was able to replace 2 other shelves with room to spare, and have about 400 dvds and blu rays with room for at least another 50 or so, plus a shorter shelf of boxed sets and other miscellany. The smell was strong, as others have mentioned, so that is the only downside. It's lessened after two days of airing out, but I'm still waiting for it to subside. Otherwise, I'd give these 10 stars if I could!

I have a very large collection of Blu-rays & DVD's. The sheer number this unit can hold, plus some of the reviews I've seen here and elsewhere, is what convinced me to buy it. After receiving it, I can definitely say this is a mixed bag of good & bad. First, the bad. The unit came shipped in two different boxes. One with the top, bottom, middle & side supports, plus the backing. In the other box were each of the shelves, instructions, and nails/screws/dowels, etc. NEITHER box was shipped with protection material between the pieces. Meaning, every piece had multiple scuff marks in multiple places. Whitish scuff marks on black coated wood? Not good. Most of the individual shelves had scuffs on BOTH sides of a shelf, as well. Very disappointed with this. The package with the screws, nails, dowels, etc., was one of the most incompetent things I've ever come across when doing projects like these. All of the parts came in a giant bag. Inside it, the metal plugs/dowels that you put into the supports to hold the individual shelves, came in multiple, sealed baggies. Cool. However, the rest of the parts were scattered, loosely in the larger bag. Meaning, I had to separate all the parts myself. All in all, not the biggest pain, unless you count the 4 or 5 times I stabbed myself with one of the several dozen small nails floating about in the bag while trying to get all of the parts out... I've put together quite a few of these DIY furniture pieces and I've never seen such a lack of pride or workmanship when putting parts & pieces together for shipment. For the money you pay, you should receive higher quality than this. On to the good. This piece does exactly what it's advertised. It holds a ton of movies and the unit is sturdy & solid. It's not cumbersome and looks impressive with all of my movies in it. Try to install it in the room you're going to ultimately keep it in. It's not all that difficult to move, unless you're by yourself, like I was. Still, it was easy to put together (took about an hour or so) and it's doing the job I need. In the end, I can't highly recommend this due to the abysmal packing & scuffed boards, especially for the price. If you're not too concerned about that, it's a good enough unit for what it is...

First of all this is particle board furniture and I'm reviewing it as such. I built two. If you want something nicer, wayfair has nicer and more expensive stuff. After I finished putting the two units together, they were sturdy and didn't wobble. A one star review I read said that they fell apart when they were carried up the stairs. I'm certain that if you pick them up by the top, they would come apart. The top is held on by a push in wooden dowel and one dowel that expands when you turn the cam. I had to carry my first one up the stairs and I was careful to pick it up by the walls and not the top or the bottom and I left the shelves out. I had no problem. I read another review that said the back was made out of carboard. The backs for mine appeared to be made out of something that I consider a step up from particle board. The instructions tell you to put the back on with the unit standing and some shelves in, probably to keep it square. I laid mine down face down and squared it up with a carpenter's square (you can buy one for probably 10-15 at home depot. A cheap one is fine). Until the backs are on you can wiggle the unit some to get it square and it's a lot less frustrating to locate and nail the back on with it laying down. If you don't have a square you probably need to put the back on it with the unit standing up and with shelves in it to get it square. A one star review criticized the unit for having a loose fit for the screws holding the bottom on thus causing the screws to strip. They are a loose fit to make them easier to screw in. I suspect if you use a power tool to put the screws in that they would strip in the particle board. Finally pay attention to how you orient the uprights before you start screwing them in. The one with holes on both sides goes in the middle. The two outside pieces are made left and right if you want the cam screw to face the inside where it won't be visible. The instructions don't tell you to watch out for this. When I finished my units had no wobble. I also like the fact that the base protrudes toward the front making it more likely, in my amateurish opinion, that it doesn't tip over. I didn't bother with the wall anchors and I liked not having to tear up my sheet rock. All the holes lined up and the shelf supports were either a push fit or a light tap fit. I'm no kind of handyman, yet the assembly was easy except for putting the back in. I probably spent 3-4 hours unpacking the stuff and putting 2 of them together. My major complaint is that the box was full of sawdust. My wife immediately had the vacuum out. The units had a strong wood smell which lasted for a day or two, which the wife hated. I thought it was ok. I thought the units looked nice when finished but I wouldn't consider them to be furniture. I never write reviews. I'm doing so in the case because I think some of the reviews were a little off base from my experience.

Strong, easy assembly, and holds all my movies. Was at a good price and the consolidated storage is great. Stable and quite heavy when full, but not before filled. There were no missing parts and stands stable up to the wall

I now have 2 of the triple and 1 of the double wall media storages. These are perfect to hold your movies / box sets. The image displayed is a little misleading though. I believe ours holds 5 rows of DVD / Blu Ray height media and 1 row of CD height media. But you can fit quite a few per row (really depends on the thickness of the box set or movie). Ours holds between 30 - 35 Blu Rays per row or 16-20 box sets (depending on the witch of the box set) per row. So a double media storage would hold: 300 - 350 Blu Rays or 160 - 200 box sets And a triple media storage would hold: 450 - 525 Blu Rays or 240 - 300 box sets This is solid but you will want it up next to a wall or anchored to the wall. Super easy to construct. I put all 3 together and each only took about 20 minutes. It took longer to decide where they were going than to actually put them together.

Un bon deal car acheté d'occasion pour cause de défauts cosmétiques alors qu'en fait c'est quasi imperceptible. Sinon je ne sais pas si je l'aurais acheté le plein prix. Pas compliqué à monter, juste un peu long. J'ai eu peur en clouant le fond de taper "à coté" et que ça se voit sur l'endroit car le fond est un peu plus petit que les rebords où il doit être cloué, faut vraiment y faire attention. J'ai eu du mal à bien insérer les barres latérales, à faire en sorte que les chevilles en plastique soient bien enfoncées dans les deux parties du meuble. A part ça, pas mal d'espace de stockage de CD et DVD. Je ne sais pas si c'est robuste, on verra avec le temps, mais ça a l'air assez solide, et également stable (je ne l'ai pas fixé au mur) une fois bien remplie. Le seul truc potentiellement gênant, ce sont les rebords sur les cotés et en hauts, qui cache un peu les CD/DVD, mais c'est vraiment mineur.

This shelf has been a godsend for organizing my vast movie collection. It is lightweight but very sturdy . Its dimensions are perfect as it is a perfect height but the exact narrowness for blu-ray cases etc . I have it along my hallway wall and plan to purchase an additional one for another room in my house . It was incredibly easy to put together which was a huge plus .

I am quite impressed with the design of this, I mean how it assembles was well thought out... only thing I really didn't like is those thin backing boards you have to try to nail on with millimetre precision. They need a better way to help align it without punching nails through the sides of it. Otherwise you should be quite impressed with the ease of assembling it. Now only issue is trying to match it with the media you have. I really hate how bluray cases are not all uniform so someone with OCD it drives me mad when everything doesn't perfectly fit in symmetrical harmony. Yes, I'm referring to steelbook cases and those odd shaped cardboard cases, season box sets and other things that make you want to beat someone with a club! Trying to decide on shelf height when one is too big and another too small, working out the math of bluray vs DVD vs cd vs video game optimization and uniformity, I can't take it... so I ordered one for each... ok, much better. Oh right, about the stand! It's really a great stand, I love it a lot and it looks great, feels sturdy and everything else, but the reference pic they use is what would drive me mad... if that doesn't bother you, then your in a win win situation, otherwise trying to find that perfect symmetry and shelf height where everything feels just right and one with the universe takes some time.

Very easy to install. Comes with lots of shelves (i didnt even use all of mine). Looks nice all set up. Holds alot of bluray movies or books. The shelf itself is not very deep, so its perfect for small spaces and doesnt stick out from the wall very much.
