Winsome Wood 3-Tier A-Frame Shelf, Black

This a great solution for keeping magazines organized and out of the way. The predrilled holes weren't accurately aligned, so plan on using your corded / cordless drill to complete assembly.

This unit is attractive and fits well into just about any room or office space, without giving it that "closed in" feeling. It solved my bathroom storage needs.

Amazon was great about the exchange, as usual, fast and reliable. Thanks Amazon.com
