Review on OPHIR Wooden Paint Rack Stand - Efficient Pigment Ink Bottle and Paints Tool Storage Solution with Cabinet Holder Organizer for 58 Bottles of Paints by Summer Hendricks

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent paint storage

Remodeling the painting space after a few years, I needed additional shelving to keep my massive paint collection organized for projects, yet still accessible. From a shelving manufacturer I've had for years I saw this one and it met my needs and had extra storage to boot! Unlike my 10 year old paint stands, this one is made out of thin plywood and not MDF. The assembly was what I would call standard, a little tight here, a little loose there, and as others have said there were no instructions, but it was pretty obvious to me how it all came together. I glued it together for added structural integrity during assembly, like my existing racks, but I've seen it work well just using the included o-rings when you really need something that can be taken apart. I will say that with some glue it is very durable, just like my old frame which was made from a much thicker material. The two things I didn't notice was that some of the pieces were slightly warped, making the alignment of the reeds and slots a game of skill. And the other was a Revain shipping carton (they put a flat pack rack in a 5x carton with a small piece of paper roll for stuffing, causing the shrink wrap to tear and parts falling out of the shipping carton) but I cannot accept the manufacturer's responsibility for this. Just like my old frame, made of much thicker material. The two things I didn't notice was that some parts were slightly warped, making aligning the ledges and slots a game of skill.
