Hama CD Rack for 20 CDs | CD Storage for Hanging or Standing, Space-Saving, Small CD Stand, for the Office or Any Room | Black

My rack was a tad tricky to assemble but ultimately came together fairly easily - so let that pass! The end result is a sturdy, little rack for storing CDs. These can be wall hing or stacked vertically or side-by-side on a shelf to give you a pretty versatile storage place. I'm pleased with my one.

I like music - I dislike digital music which, except for the convenience and portability aspect, is usually inferior to CDs and vinyl (CDs being better than vinyl in all ways that matter except for nostalgia). As a result I have several hundred CDs, a large proportion of which are organised using these storage units.In total, I have 18 of these CD storage units, all black.Each unit holds 20 standard sized CD cases - anything other than standard sized jewel cases (or the more modern cardboard equivalent) is not going to fit; that means some larger packaged double albums, multiple CD collections; special editions, book-like CDs etc will have to be stored elsewhere.Units arrive flat-packed and boxed. There are no instructions but they are not difficult to assemble - each part is stamped left/right /front/top etc as appropriate. Whilst they are sturdy once assembled, be careful how you put them together - the parts need to be pushed quite firmly until they click in to place *but* if you are overly aggressive, the plastic locking-tags can break, especially if not aligned properly.On the external faces, each storage unit has protrusions and corresponding depressions so that they can be stacked together; they also have holes for wall mounting. My units are all stacked in a cupboard but if they were stacked high and free standing, I would advise using the screw-holes for stability.In use, they are strong enough for the purpose for which they were designed. Moving a unit whilst full is however not advisable; CDs are not held locked in place, the grooves simply help align the cases and they can move around.In short they do the job for which they were designed; the advantage of using these units is as a space multiplier; I can now get three times as many CDs on each shelf than I would if I did not use the units. They are not cheap; but they do cost less than new shelving and they can be arranged to suit the space to hand.Recommended.

This was bought for my mum to put her cds in on the kitchen counter so I wanted something fairly small and this fits the bill perfectly size wise. It was easy to put together but care is need as the plastic is quite thin and cheap. However when it is put together it is fairly sturdy and the cds go in fine

I bought one of these and converted it into a modular mini rack for tiny home PC servers. :DAlso good for a CD or two.

I have read many reviews on these, [having bought 8 when on sale]. Of these 8 only 3 units could be put together easily, the others THE CLIPS broke and the Units rendered worthless.It is without a doubt that these UNITS are incredibly difficult to put together. The clips on the side walls, needing to be pushed into the base and top unit, are SO tight they broke, OR the clip on the base/top bent making those components unesable. I used a mild lubricant [Pertoleum Jelly] to try and ease them in --completely useless.They are NOT robust, are NOT easily assembled. Very POOR Build Quality, A Very BAD and AWKWARD FIDDLEY Fit.My advise to anyone considering buying them: DO NOT. Look eslewhere

First the good points about these CD racks. One, they stack nicely on top of each other and are stable. Two if you have the big standard single plastic CD case they are fine.Now the bad. They are so fiddly to put together. Can’t believe four bits of plastic putting together didn’t fit easily but they are so tricky getting them aligned - it’s the last bit (in my case the tops) that was a real pain. Secondly if you have anything slightly wider than your standard CD case such as a cardboard one then they snag getting in and out.Overall then these racks are ok. I have had better in particular the Hama Nexus ones but these are expensive. For the price they are ok. They look fine when they are all built.

Been looking for small CD storage for a while to sit on a shelf. This unit is just the ticket! I bought 2, and now I've just ordered a third because they fit my space perfectly. Easy to order - even easier to assemble - just clip it together - No instructions needed! From unpacking the 2 boxes, to putting my CD's on the shelves was less than 5 minutes. When constructed they are quite sturdy. They sit on top of each other or side by side, and there are mounting holes to fix to a wall if you wish (provide own fixings for that). I'm very pleased - good value for money!

I should have sorted my CD's years ago. An imminent house move and I've at last done so. These shelves are sturdy; they do stack snugly, but you'd want to secure them to the wall or surface behind if stacking, and there are two screw holes in each to facilitate this. I bought the cream and I wish that I'd bought the black as these would probably be less 'in your face' than the cream. As you can see from my poor photo, they are quite chunky and far from unobtrusive. They were not easy to clip together: reassuring in that they're not going to collapse under the load of CD's but very stiff. There are no instructions and I'd assembled one (I bought 5) before I realised that there are marks on the top and right hand side pieces to identify same. So do look carefully for these prior to assembly. Even with this essential knowledge, they are very tricky to get together - or was it just me? Finally value for money: I bought these because they were about the cheapest per CD stored on Amazon and they have done the job for me. So win win on both counts. I'm just not convinced that nearly £9 a pop is a fair price.
