Are those the LP BIN's? How do you like them? If I ever get a dedicated room I was thinking of getting a couple.

@Believer101 worth mentioning that if you do get Kallax's make sure that the longest 'divider' is used as the horizontal piece, with the 2 smaller dividers being the verticles. I have seen a couple of disaster stories of people putting them the wrong way and it collapsing because of the pressure.
Take note of @hamicle's picture and you can see what I mean by fixing them correctly.

Next time my family says something about the size of my collection, I will think of the jealousy I have right here.New forum, new pic...
Music related books, Box of 7"s, Soundtracks, and Box Sets are on the left...all else is A-Z.

Very good tip, I guarantee any pics you see of failed Kallax units, the long boards are vertical.

Not the ideal space, but we work with what we have. Eventually i'll finagle a room in time
A little spring/PIF purge and the collection is sitting just under 500.

Yeah sure. It's probably really obvious, just worth remembering though as I have seen a few issues in the past.
I've taken @hamicle's pic as a reference (hope that's ok) as how to put it together correctly. Orange is the 2 short pieces and the blue is the longer one. This is the correct way, if it was rotated so the orange was horizontal there is more chance of the weight causing it to fail structurally.

I like the unfinished look, but I guess it would depend on where someone was putting them. That said, I think you should consider selling some

Maybe this will help as well.

Isnt this the normal way?
I think is why im finding it confusing. I feel your telling me to do something out of ordinary but those pictures are both exactly as Id imagine anything like this to be built.
So build it the way its suppose to be built is what your telling me?

It seems like a simple concept, doesn't it, but apparently more than a few people have put this thing on it's "side" then bitched about poor construction

That’s exactly what they are. I love them! It’s so much better to be able to flip through than just looking at the spines
I live 10 miles from where they’re made so I was able to avoid the shipping costs but I was still prepared to pay the shipping anyways for them. Highly recommended!
