Tools and Hardware Reviews of Storage Solutions 15-Pair Shoe Cubby, White Frost
Customer Review: 15-Pair Shoe Cubby
Summary: 4 Stars
It surprised me, but this cubby is very sturdy. It does take some time to get together but it is worth it. After my hands started to hurt from pushing on the connectors, I came up with a good idea. I didn't have a small rubber mallat hammer, so I used a screwdriver with a dense rubber grip to tap the connectors all the way in. This worked great, but don't hit them too hard. Just tap them in until you see the slots are all the way to the hilt. It did take a couple of weeks for delivery, but it was worth it.Customer Review: Alternate method of putting it together

I had a heck of a time trying to put this thing together with the clips that were provided. The contents in the box showed that someone else did too. Half of the items were thrown in loose and the others had the ties holding them together. I decided to try using some plastic ties instead of the clips and it went together with no other problems. I don't have to worry about it falling apart every time it's moved. I suggest trying this method if the clips don't work for you.Customer Review: An excellent choice
Summary: 5 Stars
I typically don't write product reviews, however in this case I have to make an exception, mostly to respond to all of the negative reviews this item unduly received. I nearly did not purchase the organizer after reading the reviews, then figured, at $30 who cares if I hate it, so granted, my expectations weren't high and I was pleasantly surprised. The main reason I purchased the item is that it is really the only choice out there if you want something resistant to outdoor elements. Obviously the similar models made of particle board would not have worked.
I was mindful of what others had said about actual size of the cubbies, and I'm not quite sure what people are talking about as I had a very easy time fitting two mens U.S. size 10 tennis shoes in one box with absolutely no problem. I also loved the ability to configure for a variety of space constraints- I have an odd outdoor nook and was able to maximize its space perfectly by constructing the organizer into a sort of U-shape. Overall, I would say it definitely has one of the largest cubby capacities of any organizer out there, and it's ability to withstand elements make it the obvious choice for outdoor storage of shoes, garden tools, seeds, and what have you.
It wasn't difficult from a structural perspective to assemble, however it did take a bit of time, which I would say was more than worth it in the long run. With that I'll end my tirade- imagine, getting so passionate about something as simple as an organizer! Hope this helps those of you teetering on the brink of indecision...
Customer Review: Annoying to put together
Summary: 1 Stars
I found this product difficult and time consuming to put together. After spending 15 minutes attempting to fit the pieces together, I got frustrated and decided to return it. - Jennifer BarrettCustomer Review: Awful and then some...

I can't believe that someone could design a product this poorly. I'll try to use a rubber mallet like some other posters have done because this is a nightmare to put together. As others have said...the pieces don't snap together easily. You have to use a lot of force. I'm afraid it will fall apart once it is put together. Very disappointing.
