I purchased this closet organizer just a few weeks ago, and I install it myself, it took abbout 2 Hrs, I love it, don't need to buy an expensive wood organizer.Customer Review: The name says it all
Summary: 5 Stars
Indeed, this system lets you configure your closet the way you need it to be. Need double hanging space? No problem! Single hanging space? Ditto! and if it's shelving you need, that's included too! It was easy to install and I liked it so much I bought a second set, plus extra vertical pices. I would highly recommend this, for either a single closet, double closet or for an "Almost walk-in" closet like mine (roughly A six foot square space). Would work for both adults and children's closets.Customer Review: Totally Impressed!

Some notes for those who want to buy this:
#1) DO IT! You'll love it.
#2) Getting started with the very first piece takes the longest. Then it's a total breeze from there!
#3) At the VERY BEGINNING, make sure you are making marks for where you will be screwing into studs, and making different-looking marks where you'll be using a wall anchor - you will only need these marks for the top bar that goes all the way across, and only as high as you want the unit to go (meaning the placement of the top shelf or bar).
#4) Directions didn't tell you this (and for some people it's probably obvious), but use a 3/8" bit to drill the holes where you need to use wall anchors, and a 1/8" bit to drill where you'll be able to screw right into the stud. (That's 3 steps for every place you'll be attaching the first bar: mark the wall, make a "starter hole," install the anchor/screw.) I may be an idiot for not knowing that to start, but had someone told me that in the beginning, I could've chopped off a half hour of assembly time! (Now I know for future things as well. :)
#5) You will need 4 leftover screws after you install the top bar - these are for the hanging bars, so be sure to set them aside at the beginning, and use the rest to secure the top bar.
#6) They give you specific measurements on the distance between the hanging bars: make sure you start at the far left and far right like the directions say (6" from the wall), but you can space the middle 2 bars wherever works for you.... just note that you may have to cut the top bar cover to fit (which is a nice touch to make it look neat).
It only took a TOTAL (from unpacking the box to starting to put stuff away) of an hour and a half to finish!!! And that's by myself, a 5'3" female who is totally awkward when it comes to putting stuff together!
With the end result of this thing, I LOVE IT. My closet fits so much more and is SO very organized - especially for a SMALL space (my closet is only 5'w x 6'h x 2'deep) - and has to fit everything from clothes and shoes to luggage and books. I was in such desperate need, I even paid for overnight shipping. :( But I will definitely buy another one when I have another closet that needs to be organized!
The instructions could be a bit clearer, especially for someone without much (if any) experience hanging stuff. I had to call my dad to have him help me understand the directions. Another small complaint: they aren't entirely specific on how many screws you need where. You have to do the counting as you read through the instructions in advance. So I included that in this to hopefully help the next person out. Whatever small frustration I had with the directions TOTALLY PAYS OFF with the end result.
Also, I shopped around for an organizer for a while, and for the price (especially!) and what you get, the value of this is AWESOME. Enjoy your newly nice and neat closet! :)
Customer Review: Very nice quality
Summary: 5 Stars
This unit was very easy to assemble, looks so much better than that rubber-coated closet organizer that we replaced with this one, and holds up much better. VERY simple to adjust shelving. Very happy with purchase.
