Review on Peel 2 Drawer CPU Stand Black by Roberto Bates

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Missing instructions, wrong illustrations, missing screws and the unforgivable. Adhesive labels on the wrong panels

This is probably the worst example of incompetent quality management, incorrectly illustrated diagrams, missing parts, incorrect labels and poor quality pressed wood you will ever see. If an engineer takes 5 hours (3 attempts) to build such a simple project, then I think he gets 1 star. First off, if someone who packs these parts puts adhesive labels on the wrong sheets, you're in for a nightmare. especially if you stick on the go. If in the beginning you're trying to decide what's the front and what's the back of panel E and you don't take a ruler and measure from the front edge to the hole (middle) and get it back, then you're screwed from that point on. Since the illustrations are drawn from the wrong angle, one can only guess based on the images. No written instructions, of course. The guides in step 2 are not straight as shown, but are curved upwards. 2 holes weren't drilled for dowels and 6 holes in the bottom of the drawers weren't pre-drilled and other places where they were the wood was too soft for the screws. When assembling boxes, it's important to remember that the picture of the box doesn't mean it's upside down. After taking everything apart again the second time, I found that someone had put the wrong labels on the panel (and more than 2). but on the surface they seem correct. It wasn't and what a miserable time it was putting everything together correctly and I ended up drilling additional screw holes to make it a little stiff.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
