Elegant Jewelry Organizer
Color: White, Color: White
The jewelry box exudes an elegant appearance. I ordered white, but the actual jewelry box is cream-colored. Nevertheless, I am pleased with the various organized compartments and the two-tiered design inside. The box is truly stunning and complements my dresser beautifully. Giving four stars due to the Misleading color.

Good buy!
Color: Black
Super cute! Looks elegant on my dresser. I love that you can rearrange pieces to make it fit whatever you need it to fit. Looks more expensive than it was. Holds plenty of earrings, rings, and necklaces. No lock, but closes securely. Love it!

Great for larger storage
Color: White
This jewelry box works really well for a variety of jewelry pieces including larger necklaces. I love that there is room for all the earring possible and to organize my necklaces so that they are not tangled. It is a little too big to travel but great for at home or larger storage. The box has a handle but no lock. It did not have any smells that were noticeable. I got the white and I like how it looks on with the other things in my room. The white color is clean and has a matte finish.

Effective & Attractive with Wireless Charging
Color: Blue, Color: Blue
This "valet" organizer, which is the first time I've heard that term for a product like this, is nearly perfect. For me, it checks all of the boxes and in a perfect world, I would have opted for a smaller piece with only three compartments for mobile, wallet, and keys.
It's well made and quite attractive, especially the blue (favorite color, so I'm biased). The only feature I'm not a fan of is how the removeable, wireless charging pad was implemented, which sits up on a small lip at a slight incline. However, I'm not complaining one bit as the wireless charging is great, and it's a differentiator that determines the value of the piece. I would have preferred the pad be built into the piece, however the angle of it does make it easy to grab opposed to using your finger(s) to pry it up.
