Raise It - Black Furniture Risers 16 Pack - for the Bed, Desk, Table or Dresser - Eliminating Back Pain When Sitting at a Desk or Table, for Extra Storage Space Under-Bed or Under Any Furniture, or for Elderly to Get in or Out of Bed Easier

***Edited review, 8/17/2013:The squeaking has gotten worse, every time we into and out of bed, or turn over. The noise is incredibly irritating, and I have determined that it is definitely coming from the riders themselves, not the risers squeaking against our hardwood floors. I really wanted to like these considering how much I spent on them (our king metal frame has 8 legs and I wanted a 3" lift so spent over $50 to get to total # required), but I may need to find another option.Bought these because these are one of the very few risers on the market that allow you to adjust between 1"-4" and don't cost a fortune: most bed risers out there will raise your bed 5"+, which I neither need nor want. Our bed/frame is just a wee bit too low to make sitting on it and getting in and out comfortable (my husband and I are both 6'+ tall), and because the bed frame center supports have a piece that sticks out on the bottom, we weren't able to maximize all of the possible underbed storage space. We raised the bed 3" and now it's a much more comfortable height! And now things we store under the bed can be retrieved, moved around and seen easily, which is great. They do squeak, however, which is the reason I gave it 4 stars. They feel pretty sturdy, and although the squeaking isn't as loud as the metal rubbing against the plastic underbed bins was, it's still pretty annoying. Not sure what can be done about that, as I'm not sure if it's the sound of the plastic pieces compressing when we're in the bed, or if it's the plastic rubbing against our hardwood floors. But they are not silent, and if you think these might help resolve a squeaky bed, they may actually contribute to it. Again, a minor annoyance, and these are well worth the investment.

After investing in a Roomba I found that my couch and loveseat were just high enough for Roomba to get partially underneath...before getting stuck. The two end tables offered enough clearance but we found the Roomba stuck under one or the other fairly often. I improvised with some wooden coasters that I've had sitting around forever and they gave a little more clearance but over time they sunk into the low-pile area rug enough for Roomba to keep getting wedged again trying to get under the furniture.I hit Amazon to look for risers but expected to find the tall ones I've see advertised over the years to raise beds enough to allow storage containers to fit. I was thrilled to find Raise Its - they really were exactly what I was looking for because the legs on the couch and loveseat are ~3" square and I only need 1/2-1" added height to allow the Roomba to fit.Since sliding these risers under the legs of the couch, loveseat and two end tables I haven't had to drag the Roomba out even once and the result is a cleaner living room since it's now able to do it's job before returning to the charging dock instead of literally spinning its wheels under the furniture.

It's amazing how much difference 2" in desk height can make!I came to a new job with a new office, with an old, heavy, particleboard executive-style desk that (alas) won't be getting replaced any time soon. My first 2 weeks, my back was killing me and I realized it was because I had to sit so weirdly to fit my long legs under the dumb desk and the work surface was so low. I got the 16-pack and raised the desk 2" (it needed 8 points of support). The plastic squares look a little odd poking out, but it's ABSOLUTELY worth it, and honestly I think I'm the only one who notices them. Now my legs fit under the desk, and my arms are supported on the desk top at the right height, and my computer monitor is at a better height. The risers seem very sturdy, and the construction allows you to fit them under basically any shape of desk if you turn them to different angles. (Try putting them under the sides instead of the corners if needed, like mine.) My big, heavy desk doesn't wiggle or shake at all sitting up on 8 plastic blocks.

I used one set of Raise Its to increase the height of my very heavy steel tanker desk so that my power wheelchair could roll underneath. It worked pretty well for that. When I put the second set under my dinette table for the same reason, they kept slipping out because there is not really a deep enough impression to keep the legs of average weight furniture in place if bumped. They didn't really give me quite enough height. I did stack all the pieces from both sets together with each piece of furniture,but I could still use another inch under my desk. I did purchase a product made of solid wood for the table & those work a lot better. If I had not used Gorilla glue to TRY to keep the Raise Its under that table they would definitely be returned & I'd purchase a second set of the other kind. Now have to find someone strong enough to lift my desk and put the rest of the Raise Its underneath, otherwise I wasted my money.

I like these. But keep in mind that only about half of them have the rubber stoppers on the bottoms of them. I guess they are made to be stacked. If you want to use them all as a single layer, some of them won't have the rubber bottoms. I bought them for a platform that has a ton of legs so I had to put the ones with the rubber bottoms around the edges and the ones without in the center. I would have preferred having rubber on the bottom of all of them. I've had them several months now and they haven't moved, so I guess it won't be a problem.

Having had a couple of knee surgeries makes standing from low seats pretty painful sometimes. I needed something to raise the height of our very comfy, but low, sofa so it would be easier (less painful) to stand. After doing some research for options, I found these Raise Its.They raise the height of our sofa just enough so that it's easy and comfortable to stand after relaxing on the sofa. They're very sturdy and handle the weight of our 7' sofa (plus two 6' tall people!) with ease. They haven't cracked, shifted, or or anything in the month + that we've had them. They're simple enough - just lift your sofa, bed or whatever, place the Raise Its under the leg of your furniture and that's it.If you have any questions about the product, please don't hesitate to ask. I'll do my best to reply as quickly as possible.

My bed has very chunky square legs so I needed something accommodate them. I also have 5 legs including one in the centre of the bed as it's very heavy wood. I was pleased with these risers, I only needed to use 10. I would say that a couple of them do slip but I think that may be because I have a laminate floor. At the end of the day they gave me the extra wasted storage space I needed.

They work! I bought two packs of eight black plastic 'Raise It' risers for my six-legged double bed. I can now store suitcases and plastic drawers underneath. The bed has rectangular feet and they fit comfortably when the risers are positioned in a diagonal position. This means the bed cannot be positioned too close to the wall. Overall, I am satisfied with product!

These have been a god send for my husband and I. Our corner sofa was to low for my husband who has back problems so in the evenings I sat on the sofa while he sat in a single chairSince buying these and putting them under the sofa it's made it high enough for my husband to not struggle to sit down or get back up againI used 2 under each corner and am happy to say we are back to cuddling up to each other every night. Could use these on our bed as well

Product was what I expected. Appreciated getting 16 blocks to work with and 8 with rubber bottoms.

Do what they say on the tin, and quick delivery. Honestly the 16 pack is OK price wise, but the 8 pack which we had purchased to check quality, were a bit pricey.
