Let me start by saying this acrylic magazine rack is *so* much sturdier than I expected! The thick lucite material feels premium—no flimsy plastic vibes when I loaded it with my heavy coffee table books. It’s like a minimalist glass sculpture… but for your clutter.

The assembly had me giggling though. That adorable mini screwdriver (think: dollhouse-sized) had me squinting to attach the feet. Pro tip: Do this near a window! Once assembled, the slight tilt keeps magazines from sliding—genius for my chaotic entryway where mail piles up.

Design-wise? Chef’s kiss. The crystal-clear acrylic disappears against my white walls, making my Vogue collection look like it’s floating. Fits standard magazines sideways (bye-bye, rolled edges!), but my oversized art books hang off slightly. Not a dealbreaker.

One quirk: Fingerprints show up like neon signs. Keep a microfiber cloth handy if you’re obsessive like me. Overall? 9/10 – loses one point for making me feel like a giant fumbling with Lilliputian tools during setup!
