"Easy Project Thumbs Up"
Amazing product, spend the extra time to secure the main cross beam in to the studs. I would avoid using the drywall anchors. The materials in this set are heavy duty. I made my own walk in closet, it took three hours to install the three kits I purchased.

"Easy to hang"
I purchased this for my wife. She has an extrememly large amount of clothes and needed plenty of space so we turned an extra bedroom into a closet. I hung this unit up on the wall and it was very. The tools is used were just a level a tape measure, a drill and screwdriver. Total time took about 10-15 minutes. It toll longer to take out of the box than it did to install. The look is great, and there is tons of hanger space for her clothes. About 14 feet of hanger space actually. great product!

"So much better than what the house came with"
I replaced this in my youngest daughter's closet so she could get to her clothes. The only regret I have is not putting the hang rail lower. I went against my better judgement and put it at the recommended height. Now when the highest slot is utilized I can't put anything larger than a shoe box on the top shelf. The closet is 23 inches deep and if yours is deeper it may not be a problem, just something to think about. On to my oldest daughter's closet, which is a walk-in. See my photos in the gallery.

"Well designed to configure and reconfigure."
Easy install.
Note ...depth of shelves. Note the plastic wall plugs. When 'properly' (like a puzzle) squeezed to get them through the wall ..approx 3/8". I used a 1/4' bit and pushed in with a hammer instead of the included plastic pusher. An electric drill sure helps. Might be a little difficult for most women....but I know some are capable.
Well made.
It's a system.
Very strong.
I installed on a wall in my walk in. Just used one top header....but all the shelving.

"Decent kit but not as good as the equivalent closetmaid"
I bought the equivalent closetmaid up to 8 foot adjustable system a few weeks earlier and installed that in one room and just recently purchased this rubbermaid system (couldn't pass up the super low price) so can make a few honest comparisons:

- closetmaid comes with a lot more parts. There are several more linear feet of shelving included and a boatload more of brackets. I ended up having to go to the local store to buy a few extra feet of shelving and brackets to make the rubbermaid set as complete.

- closetmaid uses a plastic nonadjustable length hangar bar. This means you have to cut to length (easy, due to its plastic construction). But the plastic bar doesn't look as stylish or robust as the rubbermaid's metal bar ,which is adjustable so doesn't need cutting.

- closetmaid's "standards" -- the framing structure -- is longer by about a foot than than rubbermaid. This means you can have things hanging down lower or higher since there's more height available. I had to purchase extra standards to complete my closet for the rubbermaid while I had no issue with this factor with the closetmaid.

The shelving itself look about the same between the two systems. Rubbermaid claims you don't need to cut the shelves but you'll want to do this in many cases. They are easy to cut with a metal blade on a small jigsaw. The closetmaid includes endcaps for the bare metal which is a nice touch. No such luck with the rubbermaid. Overall installation with both systems is relatively easy. No rocket science knowledge involved. Just have a drill with the proper bits (drill bits and Phillips). The two systems, though different, appear compatible as I was able to fit in the brackets from the closetmaid to the rubbermaid system perfectly.

I wasn't too disappointed with the lack of parts for the rubbermaid since I bought it at amazon for $71 shipped, which was a great price. I paid about $50 more for the closetmaid at a non-sale price at a major home improvement chain store. Still, I ended up paying another $40 for the extra shelving and parts (bought at local home improvement store so it was expensive) to complete my closet for the Rubbermaid system so I eventually came out about even. Be warned if you're paying a higher price on the rubbermaid system as this set does not command a higher price.
