5.0 out of 5 stars Looks good, works better., March 25, 2003

By	A. Fooshee (Los Angeles) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

i got the black Atlantic 3020 in the mail yesterday and had it put together in about 10 or 15 minutes. i can fit about 220 dvds on the thing, a huge improvement over having the wobbly stacks taking up a corner of floor in my room.

It looks attractive, with a smooth flat balck finish, and seems very sturdy (especially with the provided wall strap for anchoring). If you use this rack strictly for DVDs, and sit them in horizontal rows, you will only be able to fit 6 tiers (leaving two extra) on the rack.

I already have more DVDs than this unit can occupy so i have this idea. The unit seems more than sturdy enough to hold more tiers, and because of my limited floor space, building this thing up vertically would be necessary. I purchasing another Atlantic 3020, and incorporating the parts into the existing stand to make it about 6 or 7 feet high and hold about 10 or 11 tiers. I'm very confident after seeing the construction and utilizing the wall strap that i can pull this off.

All in all i think this is a great unit and would recommend it to anyone who needs a space-effictent media rack.

At the time of my purchase, the black model was 30 dollars more than the chrome model. I don't quite understand that, but the thing is well worth it either color you choose.

5.0 out of 5 stars This company does great business, July 27, 2004

By	Kara Altenbaumer-Price "karaprice" (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought one of these about two years and loved it. When we ran out of space in it, we priced new ones and ended up buying one from a liquidator on eBay. When it arrived without some of the necessary parts, I called Atlantic to purchase replacement parts. They sent them all free of charge. The product and the customer service are great. I'm definitely buying more products from Atlantic.

3.0 out of 5 stars Overrated, May 15, 2007

By	Raymond Shih "Ray" (Elgin, IL, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought two units in May 2007 based on its superb review. I've received the unit last week and put them together last night. I was somewhat disappointed after putting them together. It's hard for me how this can be so much praised. I can't help thinking that some comments were left by manufacturers. I saw a similar unit on sale in Linen'n'Things for $30 this weekend, I wish I purchased that one instead. It's of slightly inferior build but cost a lot less (it cost me $133 for both units shipped.)

First, this only comes with one page of extremely simplified manual. I do not know how experienced people here are to put them together in 5 minutes. I spent 30 minutes to put together the first one, and still not satisfied because it is still not leveled in each tray. At first, the manual does not spell out that the tray support is directional. I finally figured out that it has to be clamped in the right direction. Second, only indication where to put in the tray support are the lines at the upright metal bar. I've made a lot of efforts, but still couldn't get each tray completely leveled. I can't push the tray down too hard because it will force the tray support down too. At the end, I have to accept that at some trays, one side is higher than the other side.

One of the review mentioned that he extended the total height of the shelf. That is why I bought two, hoping I can somehow extend it a little. But that's not possible unless I made modification to the unit. It is only made for 48" height, and there is no way to extend it. It looks incredibly short in the 9' basement.

Also, like another reviewer indicates, you can only put in 6 levels if you want to put in only DVDs. I tried to do 5 levels of DVD and 2 levels of CDs and that's not good either. Top shelf will be too short to be supported on both sides, and will look funny with dividers.

It's not a bad product. I just don't feel it's worth the high-mark review.
