"It's pressed wood with laminate on it and "rigid" shelves."
"Easy to put together, but I'm dumb and did 2 pieces with the lamination on the wrong side."

"Great product!"
"It was pretty easy to put together and is holding up well."

"I will actually be buying the bigger version of this as well for my thicker palettes (Think Urban Decay Naked's)."
"WORD OF CAUTION: What you don't see in the picture is that the bottom left side of the tape dispenser features a big Kantek logo."
"Fits in nicely with my desk design."
"I gave it just 4 stars because the paper clips slid out each time I reached into it for one until I applied 3 transparent adhesive-backed cabinet/cupboard door bumpers across the front bottom edge to tip it back a bit."
"This sits on my night stand and holds all my gadgets in the right position for charging and then easy grab & go."
"Updated Review August 27, 2014: SO, I finally bit the bullet and ordered one for myself at home (been using it at work for papers/envelopes/my calculator). Gets my laptop off valuable desk space, and the remaining two slots are still used for paper/books. I got it to hold up my giant desk calculator that was taking up too much desk space, but it should also hold up my laptop and ipad as well as other miscellaneous paper items."
"Both the stapler and tape dispenser are pretty heavy and crystal clear acrylic, but the card holder is scratched up, light weight and you can see imperfections all around the edges."

"Works very well."
"The only reason I am not giving this 5 stars is that it came cracked on the upper left back corner."

"Will only open standard envelopes, thick envelopes or slightly larger in size get stuck often."
"The 3 rubber bands that help the envelope move through the machine often pop out of their tracks and won't stay put."
"I read lots of negative reviews but needed something to open envelopes less manual."
"We do not know if the opener was defective or not but we decided it was definitely not heavy enough for our use."
"This is too noisy to use."
"Letter feed is crap."

"Solid and nice looking letter/key rack."
"I actually bought a different item about two months ago but this one is much better (first item had only one tier and wasn't at an angle so things can fall easier)."

They're at the other link (a little more expensive, but if you hate the tape screech noise... check it out). Scotch Sure Start Shipping Packaging Tape with Refillable Dispenser, 1.88 in x 38.2 yd (3450S-RD) (These are 38.2 yard on the larger roll - just less tape than the normal large roll)."
"Unlike other people let me start by saying that I bought this item at full price and received no compensation for writing this review.i do a lot of packaging and this tape is tough, I have gone thru several rolls and it did not tear on me and get stuck on the roll like other brands, when taping boxes it is tough and sticks well, each roll is ready to go on its own dispenser, a winner product ..."
"This is by far my favorite shipping tape for several reasons."
"And the tape roll has a white section banner which takes some time to unroll it off to start using the tape because the front of the white section is clear tape and hard to see to get it undone."
"It loses a star because the tape on the tape dispensers are not the largest role and I have gone through all 6 of them in 30 days."
"Also, the little cardboard box they come in is great - once the house becomes a mess during packing - find a central location where all tape, markers, stickers are a this way nothing gets lost."
"I'm a huge fan of high quality (= 3M brand, not the cheap knock-off no-name brand) packing tape. I got a 6 pack which, as pictured, came with the red holders."
"This tape is great, and the dispenser is not much larger than the roll of tape, which makes having it handy in a kitchen drawer for packaging up Amazon returns easy."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"If you place two rubber bands around the tray it will prevent the paper from lifting out of the tray when feeding. Hope Martin Yale modifies the feeding tray to do something similar."
"Works well for folding statements for monthly small business billing."
"Fantastic product."
"It also didn't specify how the paper should be fed -- face up, face down, which end goes in first? Once it starts folding, the paper is spit out rapidly, but the catcher doesn't catch everything and doesn't stack them neatly."
"I saw a video that solved this problem by placing two rubber bands around the feeder tray to prevent misfeeds, and it seems to work for me."
"In order to fold the paper, and keep them in order, we had to stand at the machine and run one sheet at a time and catch it with our own hand."
"We received this machine 7 months ago and it only has occasional use."
"Now 6 weeks later we fold a batch of 1,400 items and it start gabbing several pages and make a whining noise."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I purchased my Accuteck All-in-One Digital Scale in order to help me calculate the cost of postage accurately for the many small parcels I mail out each week. When I opened the box with my new Accuteck digital scale in it, I was immediately surprised by two things: 1.). In the few days I've owned my new Accuteck digital scale, I've used it frequently, and it has already enabled me to save on the cost of postage for items I've mailed. I think this is an essential tool for anyone operating any small online retail business."
"This scale is a great price and successfully gets the job done. Bottom line: this scale accurately weighs packages, great price, and compact."
"I'm really digging this All-in-one scale! The scale has a hold button on the right side of the scale, which basically lets you keep the weight of the item on the screen when weighting those large items that inhibit you from seeing the screen, until you remove that item."
"It automatically zeroed itself every time I turned on the power, but if I want to use it as an accurate kitchen scale I can put protective waxed paper or a container on this scale's platen and then press the 0.0 button to measure only what I put on the paper or in the container without including the extra weight."
"It opens up to hold paper-like items and small envelopes. It also holds decent size boxes when the tray is closed."
"The 50 lb limit means I can build a pretty big beer (if I wanted to,) without maxing out the scale."
"This little scale has changed my life in terms of going to the post office and shipping things."

"Love this - better than competitor which I loved, but love this better."
"Pro: No more licking nasty envelopes. No more glue sticks / glue residue everywhere. Easy to use. Con: None."
"I wish it didn't have adhesive because if you don't press hard enough, sometimes it doesn't get the envelope wet enough, and if you press too hard, you get too much adhesive on the envelope."
"It was cheaper to buy this in a pack and I can't imagine I'll go through all four tubes before they dry up."
"I send out over 100 Christmas cards each year and this makes sealing the envelopes so much easier."
"I use these for invoices printed thru QuickBooks and the invoices fit perfectly. I feel this is so that opening the envelope can be made easy, but it seems that 99% of all envelopes are made this way. At first, I bought the Quality Park envelopes that were the "Reveal-N-Seal," or the ones that were self-adhesive. About a year ago, I wanted to try the size #10 envelope, but didn't want to buy a whole box, not knowing if they would work for our invoices."
"This works great for sealing envelopes."

"Great Price. This concerned me when I first opened the package so I sacrificed an envelope to test the seal."
"Great envelopes!"
"We send out fundraising letters in these, so that is not my favorite thing, but the pros outweigh this con, so we keep ordering."
"Hate to admit it, but, the days of licking envelopes are behind me....I've always thought self-sealing envelopes were the epitome of laziness...but, they are really pretty great, not to mention the security feature is nice."
"It takes just as much time to remove the strip covering the adhesive as to moisten the flap."
"Its a shame that amazon is starting to get nothing but junk products anymore."
"These are about half the weight of paper that was in my last batch of envelopes - they're about half as thick a paper."
