For kicks, I just did a search for a fairly generic item on Amazon, "bookshelf". The "brands" in the top results are: MOYIPIN, Furrino, Hoctieon, Sauder, Rolan

For kicks, I just did a search for a fairly generic item on Amazon, "bookshelf". The "brands" in the top results are:
MOYIPIN, Furrino, Hoctieon, Sauder, Rolanstar, Vasagle, Amazon Basics, Homidec, JIUYOTREE, NUMENN, IOTXY, Topfurny, RIIPOO, Homykic, IRONCK.
RIIPOO is definitely my favorite name here.
Amazon Marketplace is inundated with garbage. It gets harder and harder to find a product that I'm willing to actually buy and assume will work. At some point, Amazon's chickens are going to come home to roost and they'll have to deal with this.

- ROTMetro 4y agoLooking at these bookshelves a number are particle/pressboard products. Would you trust unknown quality/untested inputs (industrial glues) used to make a product known to outgas into your sealed living environment? For example particle board takes five to 10 years to completely outgas itself of all formaldehyde.
- therealdrag0 4y agoIs there any study showing similar products at the same price point are any better in this regard when bought from in-person stores? IKEA, walmart, Costco, target, etc?
