I was excited to receive the storage items for the price I paid it looked great in the picture but the wood it comes with is all cracked up on the corners and honestly couldn't hold a paint can without denting in the shelf and that's a 1 gallon paint can all the metal is paperthin even the one running up and down the sides it's really thin I don't know how they sell this claiming it could hold 1000 pounds i've always been happy with Walmart but this is definitely I do not buy it's even my first review

I bought 2 sets of these shelves (1 for inside, 1 for garage). These shelves are very well made, very sturdy, packaging was good, installation was simple. The ONLY downfall (which was my mistake for not reading description throughly in reference to the COUPLINGS not included.) This means that you CANNOT install shelves straight on top of one another as picture shows, you can only make combination shelves. Example 3 to 2 ratio. 3 shelves put together then you will have enough material to make 2 separate shelves and can put side by side or use elsewhere. Truthfully this combination worked out even better for me due to the height and then would need a small step ladder to reach top shelf. So I am very pleased with this product.

Do not buy! Does not setup like shown its essentially two small shelves. The rivets are to small spaced to take a double layer of the corners brackets. ( Even tho the instructions say to do this.). I can't send it back now so I'm going to the hardware store to buy bolts. Save yourself the aggravation and money and buy something better.

Great quality for price. Sturdy. The box was incredibly heavy though. We did have one bit of one corner of one shelf broken off but it did not effect the outcome at all. Due to the weight of the package I can easily see how corners can get broken in shipping. I liked that there are no bolts or screws so its very easy to assemble. There is a little room to vary your spacing on the shelves except the middle one which holds the top and bottom sections together.

Bought 3 for hubby's new shop and they were 6 feet tall x 4 feet wide by 2 feet deep & very high quality for the money. They came with all hardware installed so only need to fit together to assemble. He really likes these and they are large enough to hold all the car and bike parts in his collection.

Steel shelving is pretty straightforward- there's not much variation from brand to brand for the most part. However, I'm just shocked at how poorly engineered and crafted this product is. Rough steel, bent components, missing paint, battered pressboard shelves- and to top it off, some of the posts you need to fit through the holes are bent. The entire thing bows at the join under it's own weight- I took it back apart into two "benches" as it'll never bear the advertised weight.

Not the most sturdy. Must be 100% level or you risk tipping or possibly shelf failure. Wood is the cheapest partial board I've ever seen. Wood corners break easy. Wood can be damaged easy during shipping. Weight will cause cheap wood to bow in middle of shelf and sink down. Over time I expect it to fail if weight remains on shelf. In a damp basement, partial wood probably won't hold up. Woods chips easily. Would never consider putting 4000lbs on this shelf. 4000lbs is super misleading. Wood could break under weight if shelf item is not supported or hanging over the metal edge to support it. Wood dips down a lot under stress. Would return for a real rack that is more sturdy if I were to do it again. 2 stars because it was around $55 with free shipping.

Harder to assemble than I thought. The bracket corners did not always settle easily into the slots making assembly more of a balancing act. The shelves are heavier than they appear so placing them on the top shelves by myself was challenging. Would recommend a sturdy connector piece to fit between the top and bottom vertical poles on all four sides. This appears to be the weakest part of the design. The metal poles are just resting on top of each other and, in my opinion, are not secure.

This Muscle Rack came in a very small box. Very easy to put together. I assembled mine without skipping the first hole on the bottom. Unfortunately, the directions were not very helpful when it came to adding the second vertical piece to the one below it. Thankfully someone posted a Youtube video which shows and explains how you "join" the pieces. Basically, the horizontal piece attaches to BOTH bottom-vertical AND the top-vertical pieces, bottom-hole and top-hole. Easier to do with two people, but I managed. Without the Youtube video I would not have figured this out. I would have given this product 5-stars IF their directions at this critical juncture was CLEARLY ILLUSTRATED. I love the rack. Thanks for helping me organize a bunch of stuff, Muscle Rack. You made my home more efficient. Thank you.

Good sturdy shelf and fairly easy to assemble. I've ordered multiples online, and a few had bent bars but not worth the hassle of exchanging. Did not seem to impact the finished product but would expect some quality assurance prior to shipping. Love the deeper shelf.
