LP Storage
« on: October 25, 2004, 06:32:00 pm »
Anyone have any suggestions for local or internet sources of good LP storage/display? The yaffa blocks aren't cutting it anymore, and the Container Store gave me a funny look when I asked.

How about this piece from Ikea?  The shelves look to be about 14" x 14"

The Ikea Expedit is a good piece that was already mentioned.
 
 However check this place out.  They are a little pricey, but the stuff is great.

I've considered this one in the past, but after seeing it in the store, I wasn't convinced it could support the weight of a ton of LPs.

I have one of these Ikea bookshelves (completely filled with double rows of books and some lps) and it hasn't collapsed on me yet. So I wouldn't worry about that.

Actaully I have read a lot of testimonials about this piece and everyone seems to agree that it has no problem at all when packed completely with vinyl.  I plan on getting the black/brown one once I move and have room for it.

That's great to hear.  I may need to reinvestigate.

My only problem with that piece is that it has no back. Knowing me, I'd be dropping all kinds of shit in the back and you can just forget about taking everything out just to get to every and anything that ends up back there, including the cat!
