Customer Review: Great Product, Great Price
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great closet organizer for the price, it fits perfectly in my daughter's closet. My husband put the organizer together, it took less time than I imagined and it's very sturdy. I also love how you can rearrange the shelves and the clothes racks. Customer Review: Couldn't be easier to install
Summary: 4 Stars
I doubled my closet space in less then 2.5 hours. The Closet kit was easy to install and I am thinking of ordering two more for my sons closets. I ordered this on a Friday afternoon and with free shipping I recieved the Closet kit Saturday morning. I was shocked to find it on my door step the next day. I would recommend the product to anybody who needs to organize their closet and not spend a bunch of money to do it.Customer Review: Wrong items shipped!
Summary: 1 Stars
I waited well over a week to get my closets, I ordered 3 sets of the titanium 3-6 foot closet systems. I received 3 white sets, not a huge deal but now I'll have to keep them for fear that I'll have to wait another 10 days to get the wrong item again. Meanwhile my closets have been spread out across the house.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: Great!!!

I loved the final product. Watch the video installation prior to starting. Really made a difference in my closet. Will be buying 2 more.
