Do the DVD cases tend to fall through the space between the shelf and the pole upon which they sit?

The unit is very nice, but it does have one serious flaw: the sliding retainer/bookend does not stay in place. Once the retainer slides, the DVDs fall off. I use clothespins to keep the retainers in place, and now it works great.

Yes, it is a poorly made and badly designed and I don't see any solution short of throwing it away and buying something else that works...also, the spacers don't hold, they just slide and let DVD's fall over and out!

No ma'am. There is a rod on the back to hold them and it's tilted a bit! They fit perfectly and have a little bar to hold them in place.

Nope, the most annoying thing about the shelves are that the modular bookend only works for one side. Still would recommend.

No they sit at an angle making that impossible to happen, also there is a little lever if you will to keep them close and tight (in case you don't fill all of the space) so that doesn't happen.

Yes they do. If you don't have any animals it's fine. I have a cat and she is always knocking the top row down with just a tiny nudge. I wished it was more stable.

They did for me. Especially if you can't get the shelf full or as you are filling it.

The shelves are only about 9 inches deep. Most DVD players are much deeper.

I use mine for media storage and educational manuals. I am impressed with the no sag issue. I have books of all sizes some stand up some don't in any shelving. This is a 10 mostly because of the no sagging in the middle.

There is a shelf left to right, its ok in space I was able to fit my ps3 and cable box in there with some movies, I've had it for 7 months and love it still

Most optical drives have tiny "hook" like protrusions around the edges that will hold the CD in place in a vertical configuration. I've only used my optical drive for two DVDs so far with this case but I haven't had any issues with the CD's at all and they don't fall out while the disk tray is moving since they're held in place by those protrusions. I would examine your optical drive and see if they have it. There are usually 4 one in each corner.

Yes. When assembling, the legs slide through the shelf holder openings, then screws tighten to secure the shelf to the legs. Be sure to have a level handy for accuracy.

It is on the tall side. The little cubbies will not work for DVD or cable boxes. The lower shelves would though.

The shelves are adjustable, so you can put one right above the feet if you wish. However, you're not going to have enough clearance to do two (three, if you count the top) shelves of DVDs.

The two shelves on the sides have a gap at the top if you don't use it for CD's. You can change the height of shelves.

there is a small lip along the front of the shelf that keeps things from falling off, although it does still happen if you close the door hard.

Yes, it should be fine. The backing just keeps the DVDs from pushing through to the back side.

The spacing is up to you. Make sure you put larger/heavier items on the lower shelves.

Maybe, if you center them and they are empty. I found that my unit had issues with leaning with just dvds, so you may have to screw it into the wall.

The shelves adjust to different heights. I use two rows for cds. The rest are dvds but if you have books the same size as a DVD I don't see why not.

Hi, yes, they are very sturdy. I have one stacked one atop of another and there were no problems with the bottom box warping or ready to fall apart. They are made of sturdy plastic, so if you do want to stack one on top of another, it should be no problem, no matter how many dvd's or cd's are in the cases. I have quite a collection of dvd's and my needs were met by these boxes.

The shelves are actually thick and kinda heavy. My bookcase holds a flatscreen TV, DVDs player, decorative candles and statue, books, and DVDs, etc and it's not bending anywhere or wobbly

No, they are too small for a DVD unless you don't want to use the top. You'd need something larger if you want to store DVDs standing upright.
