The MAX Houser tower pairs a strong metal frame with a solid wooden board and curved sheet plies, per the listing, and the three fabric drawers slide on under-mounted slides with handles that push and pull at will. At 11.88 by 16.73 by 29.84 inches it fits a narrow gap beside a desk or inside a closet, and the wheels underneath rotate 360 degrees, with paddles that lock the tower in place once it sits where it belongs. The under-mounted slides and handles make each drawer easy to open even when full, and the black finish matches bedroom, closet or office furniture without drawing attention to itself.

Who it suits: a bedroom, closet or office that needs three drawers of hidden storage in a small footprint, with easy assembly stated. Who should skip it: anyone who needs solid wood drawers, a stated weight capacity, or a wider unit, since the listing states a single size and no capacity. The narrow 16.73 inch width is the main limit: it will not swallow wide binders or large boxes, so measure the largest item first.

Its Office Score of 9.5/10 comes from performance 29/35, build 20/25, value 20/25, safety 5/10 and warranty 0/5: 74 of 100 points, placed on our 9.2 to 9.8 scale.

The TEENFON cabinet mixes closed and open storage: two drawers for odds and ends, a wide tabletop, two open shelves for display, and a roomy bottom cabinet behind doors for larger items, with an adjustable interior shelf. The engineered wood frame with wood handles stands 49.6 inches high and 11.4 inches deep, weighs 43 pounds, carries a stated capacity of 180 pounds, and the listing states a scratch resistant finish with assembly instructions included. The wide tabletop adds a useful surface for a lamp or a printer, and the wood handles match the farmhouse look of the engineered wood frame.

Who it suits: a living room, entryway or home office that needs one tall cabinet to hide clutter and show a few pieces. Who should skip it: anyone who needs deep storage, since the depth is only 11.4 inches, and anyone who wants a unit on wheels, since the listing states none. The 11.4 inch depth keeps the cabinet slim against a wall, but deep storage boxes will stick out, so favor shallow bins for the open shelves.

Its Office Score of 9.5/10 comes from performance 29/35, build 20/25, value 20/25, safety 0/10 and warranty 3/5: 72 of 100 points, placed on our 9.2 to 9.8 scale.

What this listing states. This product does not plug in or run on a battery, so safety is not part of its score. 18 month warranty. It does not say everything a buyer needs, such as who pays return shipping, so warranty scores 3 of 5. See How We Pick.

Anchor it. Anchor tall bookshelves and file cabinets to the wall with the supplied hardware or an anti-tip kit, load the lowest shelves and drawers first, and open one drawer at a time.

The Best Choice organizer gives nine cubes in a 35.75 by 11.5 by 36 inch frame, with 11 inch shelf openings that fit books, decor and household items, and three removable back panels that let you choose an open or closed back per cube. The listing states a weight capacity of 275 pounds and a unit weight of 44 pounds, with a painted black finish and floor mounting, and assembly instructions are included. The painted black finish and square shape suit a modern room, and the floor mounting keeps the unit steady once loaded, though the 44 pound weight means it should be built where it will stand.

Who it suits: a living room or office that needs open display storage with the option to close some cubes off. Who should skip it: anyone who wants baskets included, since the listing notes compatibility with 10.5 inch storage baskets sold separately, and anyone who needs a stated warranty term. The 11 inch openings fit standard books and small bins, but oversized items will not fit, so check the largest book or box before ordering.

Its Office Score of 9.5/10 comes from performance 30/35, build 21/25, value 21/25, safety 0/10 and warranty 0/5: 72 of 100 points, placed on our 9.2 to 9.8 scale.
