Advantages: Only £15, looks very nice, especially in white, doesn't take up much room, holds 96 cases

Disadvantages: None.

The Benno DVD shelf unit is basically for storing books, CDs, video games and DVDs. It comes in a variety of colours but I went with white to match my room. For some reason, white is also cheaper costing only £14.88 instead of £19.99.

Like with most products from IKEA you have to assemble it yourself but it really is easy. It won't take longer than 10 minutes and can all be done with a screwdriver. However, you may need a hammer if you want to add nails to the back of the unit which I did as it makes it more stable and to add a bracket if you have small children who might try and hang on it.

The shelves are adjustable which is great and this is done by moving the screws that can be placed in the numerous holes. You move them to where you want the shelves and then the shelves fit into the screws. You get 4 shelves to insert. If you're using it to store DVDs/video games like me then you can have four rows which each fit 24 DVDs. So that's 96 in total.

The top row also has more space than the bottom three if you adjust the shelves like that so I drilled four extra holes and inserted the last shelf as a remote control storage. It's sort of like a small space at the top and works quite well.

It looks very nice and has a curve at the bottom, as you can see in the picture, to go up against your skirting board. It doesn't take up much room at all, measuring 106cm in height, 40cm in width and 17cm in depth.

Summary: Great unit for the price. Highly recommended
