Review on Organize Your Desk With Marbrasse Upgraded Wooden Pencil Holder - Art Supply & Stationary Organizer Caddy (B16GZ-Cherry) by Adam Alvarez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not super sturdy, but does the job. Relatively easy to assemble.

I bought this to organize the pens I use for hand lettering. I was nervous this would be a nightmare to assemble but it probably took me 30-45 minutes when all was said and done. I will say getting a few of the screws in perfectly was a challenge and a couple of mine are in at a bit of an angle (the angled #6 pieces were particularly difficult), but I would say I got 90% of them in straight and I'm not concerned it will cause an issue. I agree with another reviewer who says to push this against a box or something with a right angle and it really helps get things in properly.This is not super sturdy though and I wouldn't try to put anything too heavy on this, because the way it's held together is basically through tabs into notches and screws into pre-shaped slots rather than actually holding wood pieces together, because the wood is too thin for that. It also isn't quite as large as I expected, but I could fit 8 Posca Pens in one slot and 18 Jelly Roll pens into another so it holds more than it appears it will. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase and it solved an organization problem perfectly!
