" ...  Love our new CD storage cabinet! ... We moved and needed a storage cabinet to store all of our CD's into it as we had drawers in a built-in cabinet in our previous home.  ...  "

" ...  very good quality structure, the only problem I have with the stand is it does not as much space for DVD as it said so, if you need more room order the double media stand.  ...  "

" ...  I purchased the metal lazy susan recommended and that was the hardest part of the whole assembly. ... All you need is a phillips head screwdriver, a hammer and if installing the metal lazy susan, a tape measure (to make sure your spinner is centered), a pencil (to mark drill holes), some screws (8 small wood screws) and a drill. ... The tower does come with a hole on the bottom to attach the plastic spinner so centering the new metal spinner is pretty quick and easy since you already have a center reference. ... It seems sturdy, and doesn't rock or tilt.  ...  "
