Marbrasse Upgraded Wooden Pencil Holder, Pen Organizer for Desk, Easy Assembly, Art Supply Organizer, Desktop Stationary (Cherry)

Hello everyone , I loved it. I thought it would be difficult to assemble, but it was very easy. They even sent me the screwdriver. The cell phone holder is very cute , excellent. Thanks

I can't say enough bad things about this piece of crap. A child's craft kit is better quality than this and it makes Ikea products look like haute couture.Arrived flat packed in 38 pieces. All those holes and slots are not just where pieces fit together but where you are supposed to screw pieces together. The MDF "boards" which are barely thicker than a piece of cards stock paper, and thinner than cardboard, are supposed to be assembled using the included screws which are thicker than said "boards." That means it's nearly impossible to insert the screws straight into the slots so they split the boards and end up poking out in all directions. Not only that, it is *designed* to have the entire length of the screws exposed! The pen slots are also not even half the depth of a standard ball point pen so they will probably tip over on a regular basis.Took me, a mechanically inclined individual who has rebuilt motors and DIY renovated my entire house, 35 minutes to assemble this disaster. I'm only not returning it because I need something that fits these specific dimensions so I'll use it until I find a replacement or it explodes like a pen-filled pinata, whichever comes first.Wish I could give negative stars.If you don't heed my warning and do purchase this nightmare, make sure you have a real screwdriver and don't rely on the included 3 inch screwdriver that's actually too small for these screws.

This was smaller than I thought it would be. And the instructions are very small print and pictures, so have a magnifying glass handy.Otherwise, it's nice. The wood grain color is pleasant. It feels sturdy, eve if it's a bit small. It arrived on time and in perfect condition.

The shelf is okay and does what I needed but the assembly was quite interesting. None of the pieces had anything identifying them so it was difficult. Also, make sure they are not turned around or anything because it does make a difference. The screws are also interesting. I will attach a photo.

Excelent

I read the reviews and I took all those that said to use glue for this to heart.summary:If you're not handy/crafty this isn't for you. It turned out to be a fun model but only because I like fixing stuff.> aesthetics - poor. This is a functional small storage doo-dad. Not so beautiful. Arrived with some chipped surfaces and the instructions apologize for it and say it still works ok ("huh?")> have glue ready and a clean well-lit place to assemble.> have a strong magnifier to read the instructions. some parts on the diagram cannot be distinguished without noting a single pixel difference.> have tools ready to fix holes.> I had fun assembling and fixing this up, but only because of my nerdy/crafty side. It will frustrate a lot of people.I anticipated that it would go together loosely, and the directions were difficult to follow.I approached it with the attitude that I've been warned, and this was to simply be a fixit/fun model.Right at the first couple of steps (the drawer) there were some essential holes missing in two pieces.At this point I was dismayed but decided that I could return it now before messing with it, or slog through and fix it as I see fit.I chose to slog through. By going forward with drilling the necessary holes I'd forego any return thoughts.Only the drawer needed that much drastic action and it actually worked out ok. Picture included.Note that the screws are a strange configuration to me - the threads are totally visible in the regular assemply. They just hold the pieces in a groove cut in the wood.Overall the assembly was a fun challenge but only from the handy/fixit/crafty/model-builder in me. I felt like when I was a kid assembling a plastic model (actually a good thing)I'd like to see if I can further exted the design to some kind of steam-punk look to hide the screws?Absolutely functional as a desk organizer. Bonus was a couple of extra pieces that apparently look like a rabbit when assembled it is a phone holder.

This is the most ridiculous product I think I have ever bought on Amazon .. it is pictured holding all kinds of things, which I seriously doubt. To be honest though, I wouldn’t know because I didnt put it together.. It literally comes in a million little pieces, NONE of them are marked in any way at all.. I can’t believe it could possibly come in pieces so small.. no marks even for where the screws would even be! Good luck putting it together.. be prepared to age ! It is very flimsy wood. And it would probably not hold the screws anyway..Even though it is not exactly expensive it is not worth a dime, so don’t bother! I kind of wish they would have told me to keep it and not return it because I think I would have returned it anyway, one piece at a time.. if I lived that long!!!

It was so easy to put together the instructions on how to put it together was easy as wellI love it will buy it again
