This rack is very easy to assemble. (If you have a good electric screwdriver, or drill with screwdriver bits.) You should be quite aware that it is cheap, unfinished wood, and it will NOT be a piece of furniture that you'll want to display to you wine buddies. Mine is under the stairs in my basement. It's easy to get to the wine, and pretty much out of the way.

There is one important point you should be aware of. The spaces for each bottle of wine are designed for you typical 750ml bottle, and are separated from the other bottles by small wooden spacers. They are not in what you'd consider separate compartments. I placed a bottle that was somewhat wider than normal in the rack, and when I removed it, it dragged the bottle underneath it out as well, which smashed on the floor.

If you use this rack with any odd shaped bottles, be very careful inserting them, and removing them. This rack will definitely not hold 1.5 liter bottles, or any of my Chamoagne bottles.

Very nice quality wine rack - wood is of good quality, straight, and should take paint, varnish, or stain well. Far nicer than the similarly styled and priced units found at World Market. Easy assembly if you have an electric screwdriver, just have a friend there to help you hold the pieces in place while you screw it together. I bought 2 of these, and will purchase more as my wine collection grows! Fits most regular 750 ml wine bottles, but not some champagnes or wide chardonnay style bottles. Remember, if you are going to store wine for long periods of time, it keeps best at 55 degrees fahrenheit, away from light or excess dryness.

A good solid starter rack. The only problem is it only fits straight bottles. If you are a Pinot Noir drinker this is not the rack for you. Easy to put together. Price is right.

This pine wood wine rack was cheap and, ultimately, you get what you pay for. It had to be assembled upon receipt, and once all the screws were drilled into place, the bottle slots were all slightly different sizes.

Though the slots are all supposed to be the same dimensions and accommodate the same size bottles of wine, you can't fit the same bottle in all the slots. And some are so tight that you have to force bottles in, and when you retrieve them the labels are ripped off.

If I had known in advance that it would be like this, I never would have bought this wine rack.

I do not recommend this item.

Ok Folks, this is pine, and they are inexpensive, so don't expect fine-sanded mahoganony...But, a good rack for the price, and I knew what I was getting. I purchased (8) total to fill out a wine-seller. I stained mine, which must be done before assembly. This is a lot of work given all the nooks and and crannies, about 45mins per rack. Do not plan to wipe off the stain, impossible - just leave it on and let it dry. I'm not planning on varnishing them - too much work and mess. They look good, but a couple other comments. I suggest countersinking the screw holes to improve the look, improve strength, and reduce risk of splitting. Buy a coutersink bit if you dont have one. Use a hand screwdriver to final-tighten all the course thread screws, as its very easy to blow through the pine and split the pieces with a drill. Althoough it may not be necessary I used a finish nailer to attach the top to all the vertical spars/pieces. Pretty sturdy once assembled.

This wine rack is excellent for those who would rather spend their money on wine and not storage! Inexpensive but sturdy and easy to set up. The only negative I've experienced to date is the rack will only take the narrower 750ml bottles. Those shaped like a champagne bottle won't fit, even though they are also 750ml's.

This is really a nice wine rack for the money. However, it is made out of pine and when I put it together, a corner piece split weaking the unit. All the corner pieces were predrilled to a degree except for the base which was not pre drilled. Had to make some basic adjustments so it would set properly.

It holds wine. Pretty simple. Easy to put together IF you have an electric screwdriver or a drill.

Doesn't hold odd shaped bottles, just cab 750s. Stout pinot bottles are a tough fit.

Cheap and good for the basement. It's not a fancy pants display, so load it up next to the Christmas decoration storage.

Not the height of fashion or stability but it gets the job done. If you're looking for a wine rack to put in the living room or needed it to be free standing you should probably spend more to get a better looking / more sturdy unit. But if you're planning to put it in the basement against a wall (which is where mine is) the price is right and assembly is easy (if you have a power screwdriver).

Fat bottles won't fit and no back so put it up against a wall or just be careful. Otherwise good deal for the money; less then $2 a bottle.
