12 Bottle X Cube-Stack Wine Rack (Light Finish)

[...] when putting together, there were holes missing for hardware and one board fit into one side but not the other. Not the best craftmanship. I would NOT recommend this product.

WOODEN PEGS WERE TOO LARGE FOR THE HOLES,ONLY FEW OF THEM WERE MACHINED TO FIT CORRECTLY

I ordered two and returned one when the first was so difficult to assemble. The screw holes did not line up accurately. I ended up not being able to put the back on the first one and just gave up entirely on the second one.

Good value for the price. Easier to assemble if you overdrill the holes a bit deeper. Sturdy. I would rate the finish as acceptable.

We are not happy with the look of our new cube stack unit. Holes that were to have been predrilled were not and when we got the unit assembled, the back panel hangs over the side about 1/8th of an inch and it looks funny. We will place in an area where no one can see it...like our wine cellar!

I ordered this piece along with the wine glass rack, two 12-bottle stacking cubes and serving tray. So far the stacking cubes are on backorder. When the whole set arrives, I will arrange them as storage/display in my kitchen eat-in area. From a distance the pieces I have look fine and do the job. Assembly/closer inspection revealed less than stellar workmanship - uneven staining, rough spots in the wood, pre-drilled holes missing or not lined up correctly, (requiring swapping parts from one piece to another to decrease problems with stability) or drilling missing holes and re-drilling mis-aligned holes. I feel for the quality the pieces were rather expensive.

I use these on my back bar, and they work well and are solid. the sides of the cross bars are not finished so you see the edge of the plywood, and if you get multiples the finish is not consistent.

Again overall good product, I will certain purchase more as needed.

Same upside as the 12-bottle cube stack (see that review). Biggest downside is that not only does the back not fit squarely with the frame, but the X does not fit squarely within the frame (i.e., it is not flush with the front/sides of the frame). If I had it to do over again, I'd sub out the X-cubes for the cube stacks (though the mix & match look of some Xs and some cubes does look better).

I really like the functionality of these racks. They can be stacked and fit nicely into tight places. They are a bit difficult to assemble. Even after soaping the screws it was not easy to screw the screws into place. After assembling 3 I had a blister on my hand!

[...]had ours delivered to us to go with the Cube-Stack Wine Racks. We were extremely disappointed with the X-Cube because the color of the wood was completely different than the Cube-Stack that they were to be used with. I would hate to think what the combo item would have looked like with the X-Cube, Cube Stack, and Glass Rack. Total miss matches which we are considering putting the X-Cube in our cellar rather than our dining room where we have the Cube-Stack Wine Racks; which look wonderful and work very well and are a very solid construction.
