6 Cube Unit is Excellent

Would you recommend?Yes
This is an excellent unit that is very stable, and fits very well in a small area. The price is affordable, and I'm glad that I ordered it on line, because it's very heavy when in the carton. It was easy to put together (about 1 hour), and when completed, is very sturdy. I got 2 storage baskets, the shelf and the drawer, and the shelf was an easy addition. It looks very good, and does not take up a lot of room. It is perfect for storing cds, books, and some magazines. Each cube is 11.25 inches high, so not all magazines will fit. I recommend this product.

Best cube unit I've ever purchased.

I have a small living space & needed some good pieces for storage. The Real Simple brand never disappoints. This 6 cube unit is far nicer than two bookcase/storage units purchased elsewhere. It is both well constructed and a very nice looking addition to any room.

My product came without instructions can someone help. We knew it did not come with screws and we thought the instructions would tell us which screws to buy but the instructions were not in the box either. Does someone have them?

Pretty Good

Would you recommend?Yes
You get what you pay for. I like the color and overall look. It was very easy to put together. Although parts of it chipped when hammering in the back. Quality is OK. I wish the size was bigger. I have not put the accessories and drawers in yet, so I am not sure how it will hold up. It is good if you need small shelving unit to get organized.

This by far was the easiest and most well constructed piece of economy priced furniture I've ever dealt with. It went together easily and is very sturdy, not to mention is very attractive. I use this unit in my bathroom to store towels and I bought the big cube "drawers" to keep the styling tools and to store the toilet paper. It works wonderfully and is very attractive.

Not too bad for the price

I bought this for a family room where kid toys were taking over. It's perfect to hide behind our armoire and have most little things out of site. Unlike the other reviewer, I had no problem getting the little middle shelf in and having 2 of the smaller totes slide right in.
I give it 4 stars for the following reasons:
1. I had to buy 2 of them b/c the first one had a crack across it from where they had drilled the holes.
2. There are nicks and scratches, straight from the box (part of the you get what you pay for, not real wood furniture, none the less I knock off 1 star)
3. Easy to set up. I've done one before and with the help of my 4 yr old, it took about 20 min.

Pretty decent, good price, picture deceptive...

I'd like to rate this 3.5 stars: "better than average." This storage unit took me (alone) only 20-30 mins to put together. I bought several shelf-and-tray units to go with it and they are good to go right out of the box. BUT, according to the ad picture in the mailer, 3 tray-and-shelf units should fit in a single cube of the storage unit. However, NOT the top cube (even though shown in mailer ad pic) as the 4 cam bolts attaching the storage unit top prevents the drawer from sliding in. My suggestion: if you want 3 shelf-and-tray units in a top cube, do NOT use the cam bolts, but simply glue (not included) the storage unit top to the storage unit shelving. Quality was decent for a DIY unit, but 1 of the bolts for 1 foot was stripped.
