Promising review: "I’m using this cabinet in my living room, and it looks amazing. The fluted design gives it a stylish, modern-retro fee,l and the oak finish is really warm. It feels sturdy and well-made, not flimsy at all. The drawers are smooth, and there’s plenty of storage for decor and everyday items. Easy to assemble and totally elevated my space." —Yana Promising review: "These are pretty sturdy and a good size to keep photos or letters in, which is what I use them for. Nice pattern, lovely blue color with flowers." —Dog Mom Dani Get them from Amazon for $46.50 (available in 13 styles). Promising review: "Perfect height for our chair. Blends nicely with our furniture. Three shelves hold all our odds and ends in a handy location." —anonymous Get it from World Market for $129.99 (available in two colors). Promising review: "I love this piece of furniture. It went together easily enough. It's bigger than I expected and truly so cute. Worth the price, no complaints." —Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $84.99+ (available in five colors and five door variations). Promising review: "I am using this as a music bar with my new record player, albums, 45s, and everything else that I need. The Mid-Century Modern design is eye-catching. Repurposed for music, so I didn't install the wineglass holder. When putting together, instructions are good, but make sure you focus on which sides of each piece are front or back. Lots of pieces, so it will take a bit of time to put together. Very well made." —Jan Jan Get it from Amazon for $149.99+ (available in two colors). Promising review: "This mirrored storage cabinet is very sturdy, and the door closes securely. My contractor had an easy time of installing it, so it is recessed into the wall, but it can be hung without having to do so. I have brushed chrome fixtures in my bathroom, so I spray-painted the trim silver and added some glitter (which I love). It looks beautiful, and has decent storage capacity." —Kindle Customer Get it from Amazon for $175.99+ (available in four types). Get it from Anthropologie for $998 (available in six prints; also available as a bookcase). Promising review: "Such a beautiful piece. I get comments on it all the time. Perfect for the dining room to hold board games for the family!" —Teresa, Deerfield, NH Get it from Wayfair for $179.99 (available in three finishes).

Each comes with an adhesive made to hold up to 40 lbs. Promising review: "These were super easy to hang, and they hold a lot more weight than I was expecting! Definitely happy with this purchase." —TAHSIAH Get the five-pack from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in seven finishes). Promising review: "I purchased the storage combination of three units in all black. It looks even better in person. Yes, it is three separate units assembled side by side, but it reads as one large piece. The bookcase is a cinch to assemble for anyone with a bit of Ikea experience. The storage units with glass doors are more complicated. I had our resident expert put them together. The patterned bottom to the drawers was a fun and unexpected design touch. The knobs are especially nice and the adjustable/leveling legs are exactly what I needed in this old Victorian. Pegs holding shelves are not visible, great design touch!" —Anonymous Get it from Ikea for $1,227 (available in five colors). Promising review: "Cute and functional! Very sturdy too. I'm able to put my blankets in there." —Jeice Get it from Amazon for $36.09+ (available in seven colors/styles). Promising review: "Great shelf for the price! Pretty easy to put together!
