Way Basics Eco Modular Table and Storage Set Review

I purchased this table & cube set for my boys playroom. I love the fact that you don't need any tools to assemble it. Just peel & stick, and it only took 2 minutes to put together! It's also a true espresso color, which is what I wanted. Secondly, I put closetmaid fabric drawers inside the cubes and they're not only used for seating but for storage. I also love the fact that no tress were cut down to make this set. It's made out of recycled paper! The cubes are strong & sturdy along with the table. Love it, and my boys love it too.

Combining refreshingly bold simplicity with unique and versatile style, this table with four cube-style seats offers a multitude of functional furnishing options suited to any living space. The eco-friendly pieces feature recycled-paperboard construction that provides unmatched durability, weighing less than half the weight of traditional particleboard, pressed wood, or plywood furniture--without sacrificing any of the strength. The seats come with white backer boards and assemble easily with pre-applied, super-strong 3M-brand adhesive strips, which means no more battling an odd assortment of tools, hardware, and screws. Plus, when not serving as chairs, they can be stacked together to create customized storage options in a closet, playroom, or den. For further convenience, the table sets up in mere seconds; simply slide the baseboards together, place the tabletop into position, and enjoy an instantaneous space for game nights, crafting projects, homework, snack time, and more. Best of all, each water-resistant piece wipes quickly clean with a damp cloth, making the set a smart and durable choice for playrooms, kid's rooms, and classrooms. Available in a variety of bright, bold colors, the table measures 26 inches deep by 26 inches wide by 21 inches tall, and each cube measures 11-2/7 inches deep by 13-2/5 inches wide by 12-3/5 inches tall.

The first thing I noticed when unpacking the pieces of this item was that there are two drawer-fronts for the center drawer - One was red and one was black. Did not exactly go with the rest of the item. The instruction manual gave no contact information for requesting replacement items. Not a big deal - they can be painted. Still, very odd. Assembly was easy.

Way Basics Eco Modular Cubes Storage and Organization Review

Frankly, at first I had doubts. But, I needed a bookshelf for a low ceiling area for a media room and I decided to go for it. I am pleasantly surprised and satisfied. I am considering buying six more of the larger ones for another project I have.
In no particular order, here are my observations:
Concept - very unique use recycled materials. I'm no greenie, but still like the concept
Fit - Very good fit with careful positioning during assembly
Weight - surprisingly light
Strength - very strong once assembled for intended use
Color - just what I expected and wanted
Versatility - great. See posted picture for an interesting variation
Price Performance - Excellent value for price paid
Customer Service - Excellent. Asked Jimmy a question about back board [it IS reversible] and had reply in hours
Assembly - fun and fast. 15 minutes accurate as posted. OK, if you are a "detail" person maybe 30 minutes
Product Packaging - when I first saw outer box, oh, oh, but, each cube is carefully packed in its own box, no problem
Delivery - usual, great Amazon Prime performance
Important assembly suggestion - put one cube together WITHOUT peeling the 3M tape. Make sure the side panels all have tape showing on the back of the cube to attach the back board. Backboard is vital piece that gives stability and strength to the cube. Note that though there are small dowels used in assembly. There is small amount of movement allowed for precise edge alignment. So, when doing final assembly be careful to line up edges as close as possible for best fit. You will understand this once you put one together without the tape and move the boards to align. This important alignment step will contribute to the final look of the cubes. Obviously, it is very difficult/impossible to make corrections once the mighty 3M tape sticks to other surface.

I have been looking for a small bookcase that I can put my 15 nursing books in my closet at the bottom. I could not find anything that I had in my imagination. After multiple searches on amazon.com, I was so happy when I found the way basics cubes! They are perfect size, colors and so easy to assemble. They are very durable, strong and fun too! I bought 2, lined them together and they are excellent for my books. I plan to get 2 more. Love them.

Way Basics Tribeca Eco Modern 3-Shelf Bookcase with Adjustable Dividers, Black Wood Grain Review

It's pretty flimsy, you are literally sticky pasting the pieces together. I use it for DVDs. Initially I had cookbooks on it but the boards were sagging under the weight. If you are looking for something high quality/sturdy this is definitely not for you.

Way Basics Eco Storage Double Cube Plus Review

I first got one of these nifty little storage units for my room. Once my roommate saw it he just had to get one for himself (he's a big eco buff). So we have a Red and Orange duo standing right next to each other.
I couldn't believe how strong and durable the zBoards from Way Basics are! I have stored everything from my gym shoes, heavy textbooks, CD's, DVD's, even Vinyl. Assembly was a cinch; I didn't even need the instruction guide! Can you say that for Ikea furniture?
My initial concern was the 3M industrial strength double-sided tape. However the way the pieces are constructed, the zBoards are essentially supporting themselves with the horizontal zBoards resting on the vertical zBoards. The tape is super sticky and holds the boards together incredibly well. I guess if they use tape in airplanes, they can use it in furniture, genius!
The bottom line: it's eco, it's colorful, the price you can't beat and assembly was as easy as 1, 2, 3. Way Basics is Way cool!

The adhesive is very strong, so make sure you align correctly before you allow the boards to join. There's no fudging once they touch.
Note that the given dimensions, (11.34" deep, 13.4" wide and 12.6" tall), are the outside measurements. The horizontal boards are 5/8" thick, and the vertical boards are 7/8" thick, so the interior space is 11.34" deep, 11.65" wide and 11.35" tall. So if you're using this as a little bookcase, it's too short to accomodate standard ring binders. Get the Cube "Plus", which is 13.75" tall inside.
