Charles Jacobs Vinyl Record LP Storage Box Unit - Oak - Large

I've been searching for a storage unit that could hold all of my LPs, and this three-unit storage cabinet is exactly what I needed. It's sturdy, well-made, and looks fantastic with my furniture. The assembly instructions were clear and very easy to follow, so putting it together was simple. I'm absolutely delighted with my purchase and wouldn't hesitate to buy from this seller again. I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality furniture. Thank you!

When I was previously into vinyl many years ago I stored my collection in Habitat cubes which now hold my power tools. I could have dragged a couple out of the shed for my new collection but wanted something smarter. This storage unit certainly fits the bill. Yes it is only two boxes on top of each other and it is flat packed furniture but it appears to be better quality than most of the cheap stuff available. The concrete effect wrap is very attractive and well applied. Instructions are basic pictograms and simple to follow but I still managed to assemble it back to front. Be aware that the panel with the two tiny screw holes should face backwards.Once assembled it is light enough to manoeuvre easily empty but bear in mind that it will weigh nearly 30kg when full up. Rufus says that it is suitable for adding casters to the bottom.It holds records in protective sleeves and even when only half full they stay upright where they need to be for safe storage.I think the price is very good for this item and it comes very well packed with little risk of damage in transit. No tools are included and you will need a Phillips screwdriver. It fits together easily using the familiar pin and tightener method favoured by most self assembly furniture manufacturers but I would have liked the holes for the wooden dowels to have been a little snugger even if it would necessitate a hammer. I found after turning it over and tightening it all up that several had fallen out onto the floor and I wasn't going to dissemble it to put them back in. Maybe consider using a drop of wood glue for those.

Easy to put together and very sturdy .

This record unit is made from a very strong and sturdy mdf - not laminated chip board (which you usually get at this very affordable price). The fixings are metal which are easy to install and very strong. When the unit is built - which takes about 20 - 30 mins - it is completely solid, sturdy and quite heavy. There is no way the shelves will ever buckle or bow under the weight of your records. The description says the unit will hold up to 330 albums. I suppose if all of the albums are in simple sleeves, this would be possible. I filled mine up with a mixture of albums in simple sleeves, gatefold sleeves, box sets, double albums etc and got in a total of 214 albums. However, I have packed them quite loosely (to avoid ring-wear).The slim-line design is very convenient for me. I wanted to place the unit between the wall and a desk. There wasn't a millimetre to spare, so I am very glad that the measurements of the unit were completely accurate!I would highly recommend this storage unit. It is of excellent quality and is surprisingly cheap for what you get.

Perfect size, very sturdy and easy to assemble.

Fantastic storage units for vinyl! Easy to put together once you get the knackered of it. Ended up buying three, very good price, nice and solid. 🙂👍

Excellent item, only took 20 mins to assemble and I'm not a professional flat-packer. Great quality and price, was also exactly as described including measurements. Even arrived earlier than expected which was a bonus. As you can see I've flipped it to horizontal rather than vertical to hold my Hi-Fi system too and I put felt pads on bottom for ease of moving it for cleaning.

Easy to assemble. Looks great
