Prepac 4 Column Tall Cabinet Media, Quad Width Wall Storage, Black

Most of this type of furniture I find disappointing, but was pleasantly surprised with this unit. The build quality is top-notch compared to most laminate-wrapped particleboard furniture. As the price and style indicate, this isn't heirloom quality, but it is well made, goes together easily, and looks good. The price seems pretty reasonable. Assembly took a little under an hour by myself. The best bit of assembly advice is to drill pilot holes for nailing the backer boards on. The nails themselves are sort of cheap and bend easily, but there are lots of them. I also laid it down to attach the backer boards instead of standing it up as the instructions stated. Since kiddos aren't a concern here and it is sitting on tile, I did not attach the anchors. It seems quite stable without them, and I'll be adding more books to the bottom shelf. The unit I received did not have any of the issues some others have reported. No scratches, missing parts, etc. I think it looks good and I'm happy to have my CDs out again.

I really like this media tower. It’s not very tall and makes it easy to move around. Instructions were simple and I was able to assemble it by myself. For the price it’s sturdy and looks nice enough to display in a main living area. I am impressed with how many DVD/Blu Rays it was able to hold. If this one fills up I will definitely buy a 2nd.

At this point, I've bought and assembled 4 Double Width, 1 Triple Width and 1 Quad Width Wall Storage Cabinets (each are separate product listings on Amazon), to fill half a room with media storage, and I've been satisfied with Prepac's product. Each of the cabinets arrived without anything but the most minor cosmetic damage. All of the proper parts, hardware and instructions have been included, and assembly has been relatively simple. A power drill has been helpful to get the longer base screws into all of the vertical panels, but I have used a manual screwdriver to get them in as well. The composite board these are made from is relatively dense, giving the cabinets some weight and durability. The included nail-on gliders on the bottom helped me get the cabinets in place without scratching the floor. The cabinets are strong enough to completely fill with CDs, DVDs and or blu-rays without any bowing, leaning, or other concerns with the build quality. They're strong and stable enough, as long as they're against the wall. NOTE: These are made to be at least placed against walls, if not fastened to walls. For stability, the bases protrude about 3 inches in front and almost 2 inches on each side, but not at all in the back, so if not at least placed against a wall, it can tip over backward pretty easily. I've arranged my room to place 2 of the cabinets back-to-back and that's been stable. As for the hardware included to fasten them to walls, people seem to complain about these, and prefer finding their own solution for that. I've been fine with setting them along my walls, and back-to-back. The most trouble I've had with assembly is properly lining up and nailing on the hard paperboard backings and fitting the metal shelf pegs into the interior holes, as some of them can be pretty tight. I've used light tapping with a mallet and learned not to push them in all the way if they're hard to get in there, and that's worked well for me if I need to remove them to adjust the shelves. My all-over satisfaction with all of the various Prepac cabinets has been generally high. They do the job well, but don't reach my highest ideal. I decided to go with these after reading reviews and considering the alternatives, this seemed like my best option without spending a lot more, having shelves custom-built, et cetera. One thing I'd have really appreciated with the double-width and triple-width cabinets is if they were taller by the height of 1 or 2 CD sized shelves. That would make the cabinets the best size for CD, DVD and blu-ray cases to be placed on shelves vertically, meaning 9-10 CD case shelves tall, 6-7 DVD case shelves tall, or 7-8 blu-ray case shelves tall. The way these are, if you space the shelves for the height of the cases, you can have 6 blu-ray-height shelves with room left over, or 5 DVD-height shelves with room left over for 1 shelf of CDs. If you're not storing CDs in there, you can have an extra shelf where you stack cases on their sides, but another 5 1/2 inches of height would have gone a long way. As these are, the height is only slightly over half the height of my walls, but they still offer a lot of storage. The quad-width cabinet is taller, meaning significantly more shelving for movies. Here are my notes on actual, real world storage capacity, using real disc cases, and ensuring they fit comfortably in the shelves without squeezing them in too tightly. For CDs, I used all standard single-width jewel cases for measurement. For DVDs, I used all standard-width DVD cases. For blu-rays, the cases range in width so often, and also often blu-rays are sold with slipcovers, in steelbooks, etc., I used the average single releases in my collection. If you're storing only the normal slim blue cases, you'll be able to fit more blu-rays on the shelves. Also, this reporting is based on storage similar to described above, without consideration for stacking cases in horizontally to use up the excess space, also without consideration for being able to place anything on top of the cabinets. 40 CDs per shelf: double width cabinet capacity (16 shelves) = 640 CDs; triple width cabinet capacity (24 shelves) = 960 CDs; quad width cabinet capacity (38 shelves) = 1,520 CDs 28 DVDs per shelf: double width cabinet capacity (10 shelves) = 280 DVDs; triple width cabinet capacity (15 shelves) = 420 DVDs; quad width cabinet capacity (26 shelves) = 728 DVDs 30 blu-rays wide per shelf: double width cabinet capacity (12 shelves) = 360 blu-rays; triple width cabinet capacity (18 shelves) = 540 blu-rays; quad width capacity (30 shelves) = 900 blu-rays I can recommend these cabinets to anyone who doesn't need anything too fancy. They do make my large collection look handsome, and they're good, stable shelves. They're pretty clearly composite board cabinets I bought and assembled, not pieces of hardwood furniture, but they're nice for what they are. They're available and affordable. After buying 6 cabinets of varying sizes and having no significant complaint about them, the Prepac cabinets get my stamp of approval.

These shelves are amazing. I put them together by myself in less than an hour--followed the instructions exactly and had no issues whatsoever. They were super sturdy even without the interior shelves in, and once fully put together, were even more solid. They were dirty, but I just wiped every piece with a wet rag as I unboxed them. There were no scratches or other defects. And they hold a TON. I was able to replace 2 other shelves with room to spare, and have about 400 dvds and blu rays with room for at least another 50 or so, plus a shorter shelf of boxed sets and other miscellany. The smell was strong, as others have mentioned, so that is the only downside. It's lessened after two days of airing out, but I'm still waiting for it to subside. Otherwise, I'd give these 10 stars if I could!

This product was really easy tomput together. It us strong and hold lots if DVD's. I love that us swirl around too.

This is the second Prepac CD shelving unit I've purchased. They look great and are super sturdy. We've taken our CDs out of jewel cases and have put them into custom poly slip sleeves so, you can fit up to 3,000 CDs, and the unit can handle it easily. (900 regular jewel case CDs). Recommended.
