Plydolex Plywood Corner Model Paint Organizer - 32 Bottle & 46 Brush Slots Rack, 3 Shelves, 6 Stands & a Photo-Shooting Scene - Suits Tamiya, Vallejo, Citadel Paints - Works for Warhammer 40K, DnD

No more giant ziplock bag of paint! Assembly was easy enough. If you can build Warhammer, you can build this thing pretty quick. Stores every brand of Warhammer paint I have, and the top shelf is perfect for rattle cans. The paintbrush holders are meh. There’s nothing for them to really rest on so if they’re too small, they just fall through. It’s sturdy enough as long as you’re not picking it up. The way this assembles, it’s really not meant to be moved while loaded up with paints. If you’re not extremely careful, it definitely will come apart. Overall, it functions very well as a stationary paint storage solution, and makes great use of space. Stacking paint vertically to give you a lot of storage for its footprint. Good value compared to similar products.

I was never 100% sold on these balsa-wood looking paint holders. They looked really thing and fragile, like a stiff wind would just knock it all over. There's also fewer models for Vallejo paints, and none for Army Painter (which makes up most of my current paint collection). I needed a new storage solution, it was time to stop keeping these in the boxes and have something nice looking that is also easy to access when you're looking for specific colors, effects, washes, tones, etc. After a lot of internal back and forth, I went with the Plydolex Vallejo Paint Organizer. Even though it's specifically designed for the 17ml Vallejo bottles, I took a chance since the Army Painter bottles are just slightly bigger at 18ml. The Army Painter pots fit well, but not perfectly. When the product arrived I was excited to put it together, and to be honest I was a little intimated by the number of pieces and the sub-par instructions. Once I got started though, the assembly was seamless and quite easy to figure out. If you've got experience with puzzles, LEGO, or IKEA this build will not trouble you. The wood is thin and light, matching my expectations. I will tell you, when filled with pots and items, it does get heavy. The wood interlocks into slots and some pieces need to use what I call "keys" that further lock some pieces into place for secure stability. Once fully assembled, the piece is sturdier than I expected., and quite large. You may need to measure the area or space where you plan on putting this organizer before you buy, but definitely try to make it work - not only is it functional, it is pretty. I really appreciate the top shelf made to hold misc things, it's where I put several of my Citadel items, and the two small drawers (the organizer comes with optional drawer dividers) really help put this organizer over the top. Easily worth the money, and when I expand my paint collection there are compatible side-units for even more paint-holding solutions. Highly recommend!

It's a good, versatile, hobby paint storage rack. It's a little spendy, but it was exactly what I needed for my work bench to organize some new paints, tools, and other random paint items. The instructions are pretty straight forward, and it's easy to assemble.

Overall a decent product with a few flaws I'd encourage the manufacturer to honestly look at as only minor tweaks would be needed. Pros: + Fairly simple to put together, even though the instructions in one step are quite confusing and need some study. + "robust" in a "clipped together" way. Robust enough, esp. if you line several of these against each other. + diverse storage options + Looks swanky Cons: - there are brush holder holes at the top that are, honestly, just silly and I don't think the designer owns a brush. The bottom row are large holes for thicker brushes, the top row are pin pricks for ... toothpicks? Narrow hobby brushes - even my narrowest of narrowest brushes - don't get close to fitting in these holes. They're just ... silly. Need to be a tad larger. - the corner unit BOTTOM paint brushes are silly beyond words, because while there is a row of holes for standard brushes (and a row for tooth picks or something), the brush holder slants forwards ... so the bottom of the brush goes into the unit and backwards ... into, literally, the void. There's nothing back there or below the brush to 'catch' the brushes, so they, quite literally, slide away and out through the hole and into the unit itself. A simple strip of wood back there would serve to "catch" the brush and help keep them inplace. Without it the bottom brush holder is laughable and clearly has never been tested by the designer: They drilled holes, went "good enough", but never noticed the small holes were too small, and the large holes allowed brushes to be gobbled up by their own apparatus. Silly, really. - For the straight paint unit (not corner piece) the main paint holder mechanism are shelves with holes (the "holder") and the shelf underneath then has it's own holes and a shelf for supporting the paint pots above. But the standard paint pot (vallejo, game color, reaper, etc) all end up sitting a little too high in their holes ... like the supporting shelf below is maybe just 5-10mm too high; a little lower and the hole above would hold the paint pot better. As-is, the paint pot tip precariously, like we're on the edge of them spilling out. - the corner unit has a step of clipping together than requires some bending of the wood and faith in it not breaking. I'm heavy handed, and it made even me nervous. Otherwise, they look fine and dandy.

Was looking to upgrade my hobby area. I bought one of these and a few other MDF paint holders. (Two broken token ones, and one no name copy of this). This was the easiest of all the kits I bought. It's sturdy, holds a ton of paint, and the little fasteners to hold the shelves in place are very nice. Definitely helps me keep everything organized and more functional for the hobby area. The one draw back that I have with it is the price. I found an identical version for less than half of what I paid for this one that is 95% as good as this.

Easy to build. The set us is Beautiful. I mainly use Vallejo paint. Fits perfectly.

I was kind of dreading putting it together after assembling others that used rubber bands to hold parts together. This was a pleasant surprise as it used clips for assembly. It might be steady without glueing but I used white glue and the holder is solid and sturdy. Instructions are a bit cryptic and the parts are not numbered but if you look over the instruction sheet well before attempting assembly you'll be fine. (Helpful Hint - If you are gluing the holding clips as you build do not glue the clips (or even install the clips) for the top 1 or two levels until the top two horizontal support beams. Once the beams are in, Install and glue the clips in.) I also used a touch of glue where parts fit together. Once the glue dried I gave the unit a couple light spray coats of clear lacquer and looks great. I just bought a Second One!!!!!

I have to admit, I didn’t have much faith when it arrived. The wood felt flimsy, and it was a ton of pieces. My husband who can build anything assembled the entire thing - and he was impressed by the quality, and the intricate detailed cuts made by a laser machine. After it was assembled, it did feel a bit wobbly- no way would I want to place all my paints into this stand for fear of them constantly falling out so he flipped it upside down and used a hot glue gun to glue all the pieces to the base. NOW this thing is solid as a rock. It holds all my bottled paints, along with smaller tubes of paint plus the two drawers are amazing, I keep my knives and assorted items in them. I would highly recommend this product.
