Has anyone ever used this to store vinyl records??? If so, how many would it hold??

Oh wow, that's a great idea! Are you talking about lp albums? What size? If u give me the size of your albums I will measure to see if they will fit standing up?! They would fit lying down flat but that's not a good way to store vinyl

Hello Morgan,I use this beautiful cabinet to store the items from my travels, not CD's but I think only around 100 at the most would work. I saw the other answer sent. I was thinking 20 CDs per shelf and 5 shelves. just an estimate.

The boxes will hold only standard size albums. If you have boxed sets, for example, they won't fit. The LPs fit snugly in, which helps protect them.

I haven't used it for LPs. But it would be doable. However, unlike most record storage cubes, the sides aren't straight up and down (they are slanted). That might not be a problem, though. (And Rattique does make a straight-sided version: http://www.amazon.com/Whitmor-6500-1716-JAVA-Rattique-Storage-Crate/dp/B00J0K50X8/.) I just tucked an LP into the one I own. The basket is rectangular, and it fits fine on the long side with a little room to spare. (The handles are on the shorter sides). You could get a pretty good collection of records in there. Do be aware that (like the sides) the bottom is woven, not a completely flat surface, so it might make impressions on the bottom of your LPs over time. I don't know - but it might. The basket isn't heavy so if you have a lot of LPs in it, you might want to put the basket up against a wall or piece of furniture to keep it from tipping backwards when records are against the back of it. I hope this helps!

I have the 36 sleeves in my bin. Some have 2 DVDs in them. I probably have room for at least 10-15 more.

I used it to frame an unopened record. Shrink wrap and all and didn't have any trouble with it. Double vinyl albums might be tight, but otherwise you should be fine.

I noted my experience earlier. I'm using 7 shelves for a combination of DVDs, Blu Rays and VHS tape. The tapes and DVD are about the same height. With this mix I'm getting about 30 per shelf. That works out to 210. You may get more if all you are storing are DVD and still more if the DVDs are in the thinner case. Hope that helps.

The album can hold 30-45 pages (or more) of sleeve/page protectors &lt;-- it really all depends on the thickness of what you put in the page protectors. There may be be "Maximum" number recommended for this album, if so, I don't know it. I use these albums for scrap-booking with each page protector holding 2 pieces of heavy weight card-stock, which may have 3-dimensional embellishments on them, therefore I tend to use 30+ pages/album, rarely 45pages/album. I hope this helps give you a basis for your calculations.

A more urgent question is: will this unit safely stay on top of your speaker. That would depend on how wide your speaker is. Im assuming it is a floor speaker at least and not a bookshelf speaker. If it can stay on top of it then I wouldn't worry too much about your records as they should be able to stay in place. But I don't know for sure as I don't currently have this type of setup.

HiI would estimate approx 20 or so. I also store 2 binders in addition to one of those expanded file systems in there. Great idea for storing files and not a back breaker with the rollers

Hi Jill...it will hold up to 50 lbs. Your turntable should fit nicely on it...hope this helps...Billy

I used them to store music CD's along with the booklets that come with the CD's. Under those circumstances, I found that 40 CD's + booklets was about the max capacity per binder.

It will store DVDs and/or CDs. That's all it's designed for. Records? NO!!! (Surely you're not thinking of vinyl records?!)

Yes. I use it to store loves of bread and buns, but I just tested it with DVD's and it will hold 25.

I use the storage shelf for photo albums. The majority fit but some albums are too large but I just lean them. I love this shelf.

I believe there are enough pages for 100 dvd's. I purchased extra inserts and have plenty of left over. I haven't completed my album but I think you should be fine.
