Review on πŸ“š Versatile 2-Tier Wood Bookshelf Storage Shelf by IRIS USA: Efficient Small Spaces Bookcase in White by Jennifer Schmeisser

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Looks really nice in my hallway - read on if you didn't get the screws in the box.

I use it as a hallway shoe rack because I don't have a closet in the hallway and I think it looks very attractive for that purpose. I like to give 5 star ratings for products I really like, but I'm giving one star because there are no screws in the box. The manufacturer couldn't send me a single screw as it appears to be an imported product. I couldn't bring myself to figure out how to return such a large item in the mail. So I went to a hardware store with a bookshelf and figured out what screws to buy myself after consulting a very helpful member of staff - it took me two trips to the store but the screws that worked in the end were a size 10 ... 1.25 inch screws. I originally bought size 8 screws and they seemed to work, but the bookshelf was a little wobbly. So we went from size 8 to size 10 one screw at a time and it's pretty solid now. I'm writing this review in hopes that it can save someone else some of the trouble of not getting screws. Perhaps the manufacturer will take note of my feedback and point someone in the right direction! Or put screws in a box. But I know, I know mistakes happen. I forgive you, Herr Regalbauer, if you're out there somewhere. So tl; dr, assembling the shelf was a real thorn in my side because of the missing screws, but now that i have it in my hallway i have to say i really like it.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
