Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have well over 1000 CDs.For a long time, I considered the bookshelves and bookshelves of space that the collection required a tribute to my musical taste and experiences over the years.Indeed, the jewel cases just seemed to be an easy way to observe the entire collection and rapidly select the CD that I felt like listening to at the moment.
Recently, a friend was over at my apartment and commented that the collection just looked ridiculously unwieldy.She had made the converstion to the CD wallet years ago and was never going back to the space cluster that jewel cases required.
On her recommendation, I ordered the Case Logic 264 CD Wallet (she said that anything larger would be a bit heavy to move around with ease despite the fact that I had so many CDs).Of course, I should say that I ordered 7 of the cases so as to accomdate the large selection.
The only comment that appropriately conveys my sentiment is: WOW!This is great.Here's why:
1. Shelves and shelves of CD shelving have been cleared/removed and converted into 7 (actually about 6.5) CD wallets.It's unbelievable how great this feels in a New York City apartment.It has opened up a bunch of space.
2. The Case Logic wallet is extremely well constructed.Having used a smaller version for the car, I somewhat know what to expect.THe backing of each insert is soft to ensure that CDs aren't scratched and the plastic that holds the CD in place is nice and secure.Though some have complained about the plastic binder not being able to open midway/midbook in order to easily reorder pages, it seems a LOT more secure than metal ring binders would be in the long term.
3. I opted for the 2 CDs per side rather than the 4 that is potential.Instead, I put the album liner notes next to each CD.Though this essentially cuts down by 1/2 the number of CDs each book can hold, it seems more pleasing to the eye and disks are much more easily accessible than having to root around behind liner notes to retrieve disk.Moreover, the fit seemed much too tight with 4 disks and liner notes per side.Last, trying to get the CDs out of the sleeves when stored 4 to a side with liner notes was a bit hard and I worried about scratching the CD (some of which are long out of print and prized).
4. The koskin case is very nice.Even though I store the wallets in a cabinet now, I imagine you could leave these on a bookshelf and they would not look like too much of an eyesore.
5. Access to the CDs is very easy.Because the sleeves can be reordered, I stuck with an alphabetic listing for rapid access....sometimes one just has to hear THAT song, right?
Basically, this product is a delight.I know it sounds crazy and a bit overdone, but I legimately freed up tons of space and my concerns over the practicality of these CD wallets has been allayed.Funny, I actually will need to get an 8th in just a little while.....but it's easier than building another bookshelf.
Final rating?A FIVE (5).
