WATSONS BLOCK - Tall Sleek 360 CD / 160 DVD Media Storage Tower Shelves - White

Easy to read instructions.Very sturdy and well made.Plenty of shelf plugs included.Ended up buying 3 of these as they're great.

I like this as it is the tallest CD-Tower I could find, so it provides much room and with the small footprint, I noticed that I even can fit another one in. At first, when I saw the packet content, I feared it would not look very elegant, but now - filled with CDs - it is acually O.K. The initial disappointment was based on the fact that the side-walls come as two pieces. It says that in the description, fair enough, but the way these two pieces are put together seems a bit flimsy and it was hard to get it totally straigth and aligned. So it looked a bit like something a kid would create in a do-it-yourself class. However, again; filled with CD, it looks fine and is very, very handy with so much room and flexible shelfs. Word of caution: Based on the tall size, you need a lot of floor space to put it together, and I would recommend to find a pal to help you with this one (I have put together three-door wardrobes by myself, but this one is a bit tricky based on size and joinery of upper-lower half; it would be easy to break it while lifting it from the floor to an upright position). Last piece of advice: As I said, the joining of the upper and lower part and also the bottom and top board seem a bit flimsy (IKEA has a better joinery-system by now), and so I bought some extra metal joining pieces to give it more stability.

A slightly frustrating thing. As others have commented, they helpfully label each piece with a letter to make it easier to assemble, but you MUST make sure that the centre verticals are the right way up otherwise the shelf holes won't align correctly. Give yourself plenty of space and it goes together easily enough.I must admit I hadn't realised that the verticals weren't a single length (although to be fair the photos do show the join if you look very carefully). The unit is assembled using screws which are then covered by white stickers once complete - to be fair they don't show up too much, but it feels a bit of a clunky solution. Dare I say a certain Swedish company might have found a more elegant solution to hiding the fixings?My main bugbear is with the individual shelves. First off, the peg holes are not placed all the way up, but in blocks of 4 with a wider gap between each block, so you are limited to the shelf positions. The flange on the pegs catches on the rebates on the shelves, so the shelf can't fit snugly against the side wall. And finally, the shelves themselves are narrower than the gaps into which they fit - so particularly with the white version, the gaps are obvious (see photo). I guess these will be masked once the unit is full, but it all feels a little poorly thought out.Finally, you can get 15 standard CDs on one shelf, making the stated capacity of 360 correct, but there's not much space to then access a CD to get it out width wise - and because of the way the majority of the shelves have to fit, there is only about 5mm above each CD - so no chance of getting a finger in to pull it out from the top.In summary, it does the job, but sadly not as good as I'd hoped. If I'd been able to try it out before buying, I don't think I would have bought it - however, it happened to be the correct width for the space I had, so beggars can't be choosers. Perhaps it is better for DVDs or a mixed range of stuff.

Nice looking piece of furniture when assembled. We used ours for storing DVDs. Instructions for assembling unit were quite easy to follow and parts were labelled so everything went together well. It does take 2 people to assemble it. Good service from supplier, ordered it on Wednesday and received it on Friday.

It's only fit for firewood.The product has stickers over the front face that when peeled off leaves the glue behind. Not good.The chipboard is that cheap that when you insert the screws, the chipboard splits.The company are currently refusing to refund the £110 cost of product even though they have refunded the full cost of postage proving they have received the product.I can't urge you enough - do not buy this product and do not use this company.They didn't like my first review because I told the truth so I've toned down my language...

Easy enough to put together (unlike the previous one I ordered which had holes drilled in the wrong places...) and works well for media storage.However the quality just isn't there. I have two of these, both have damage from the factory. Some of which has been painted over, presumably by a work experience kid at said factory with a brush and paint pot. Other bits of damage are impossible to hide, as per the photos.So they do the job, but at around £100 each they're way to expensive for what they are. £50 would be the upper limit for the quality you're getting. If you want something pristine, look elsewhere.

Nice looking and well made CD rack.There are some flimsy inferior ones for sale on Amazon, but would recommend this one.

The product arrived quickly. The transaction went smoothly. I had no need to contact the seller.I had read the reviews and knew there was a need to double check which way the sides were attached. I didn't assemble it though and my husband did the same thing many items did.It feels like some spaces would be too shallow for CDs if I used all the shelves so for now I placed them on top of some fitted shelves (see photos) in case I decide to reconfigure at a later date.There are shelves that are a bit wobbly due to the depths of the grooves being uneven and there is a slight gaping in some parts.I did look at other units but it would require getting 2/4 and this seemed the most sensible option.This was the size I wanted. The colour I wanted. It does the job I wanted. I'm happy.
