Cheap rack, not heavy duty

It's a such cheap rack, unbelievable. Received item with damage, the board quality is very bad, as you take out of the box, you see the chips falling. One board was damaged bad in one corner. The metal stand is so thin that you can bend it easily. It's not heavy duty of what you think.

Affordable, questionable assembly

It's not as expensive for it's size compared to other shelves. The instructions mention to use couplers which didn't come with the box. That was confusing. The two halves are joined with the cross-members that hold up a shelf, linking one shelf's upper slot to the upper pin and lower shelf's slot to the lower pin. This isn't shown in the instructions, because it assumes you have a coupler. Coupling them together is a bit sketchy, as the connection doesn't seem particularly robust, but it appears to hold. Just don't lean on it!

Cheap Shelves

I bought 3 of these shelves. I would rate it higher but it is not that easy to put together. They cut the legs in half to cut down on the length for packing but it also makes it a pain in the drain to put together because you have to stack them on of one another which means a shelf has to be put there weather you want it there or not. Another thing the shelves are made out of cheap chip board which if you put any weight on them they sag. There are better one's out there. Spend a little more money.

Cheap for a reason

Shelves are functional; however, they were not delivered on the scheduled day- which caused a serious delay in my move. Ordered 4 and, upon opening one of the boxes, discovered 2 of the wooden (particle board) shelves were broken nearly in half lengthwise due to the way the are packaged. They sandwich the metal framing between the wooden shelves. So, with EVERY set, you end up with 2 shelves seriously marked up by the paint and metal edges of the framing. I would not buy again and would recommend you spend just a little extra money to get something of higher quality- the uprights on these are not even solid pieces. You have to balance the top uprights on the edges of the bottom uprights and try to keep them that way while tapping the crossmembers into a seated position. As I said, functional but I'm not sure how long it will last.

Good shelf but more $$$, less quality than Whalen

Summary: Solid shelves for storage, great for garage or sheds. Pros: Easy to assemble, availability, shelves are perfect size for plastic storage tubs. Cons: More expensive and lower quality than competing 2'x4'x6' 5 whalen shelf option at member warehouse stores.

Great shelf for the price

As like most negative reviews on here my box arrived damaged, but what do you expect with a package over 100lbs shipped via FedEx or UPS. The shelf itself is great, the shelves are made with a particle board so it will bow a little with too much weight on it. I have purchased two of them and they are fantastic and work perfectly though.

Inexpensive, Easy To Assemble, Solid Construction

Edsal, Sandusky, Muscle Rack - same Manufacturer. Bought the double pack of the Edsal 48X24X72 Steel Shelving, because I wanted the 24 inch depth shelf and 48 inch wide units. I installed one full vertical and the other 1/2 vertical - horizontally side-by-side. Clever design and assembly was a breeze. Must use soft mallet to set rails. Edsal saves production cost with thin particle board shelves and minimum packaging. Be prepared to see rails sticking out of package upon arrival from delivery company's (mis)handling. Boxes are heavy. One of my boxes had side rails poking through and noticeable "too heavy for one person to handle" signs of damage. Fortunately, there not much that can escape, although both boxes appeared to have been dropped with slight damage to corners of some shelf boards. Oddly, the box that had no signs of major damage from shipping abuse, on the outside, had more issues with the contents (boards were chipped and bowed and the end of one horizontal rail was bent and had to be readjusted before installation (Edsal may be saving more money, by foregoing Quality Control). Marketing suggestion would be for an option to purchase with no boards or for the company to upgrade shelf boards to a better plywood material. Going to make a shelf template now, to have the correct size to make and install better shelf boards at a future time. Currently the unit is solid, but I suspect that over time as the boards suck in moisture, bowing is inevitable. You can't get luxury options for economy prices, but better boards and end caps for the vertical supports would make this great (for the price) unit an absolutely superb unit. I would buy more of these monsters and easily recommend them to a friend. Price is very good, unit is sturdy, helps my cluttered workshop look better arranged. All-in-all good choice for maximum storage at a minimum price. Walmart had best prices and a twin pack option, which it even better. BE SMARTER THAN ME: Avoid multiple delivery handoffs which increases the chance of fumbles and order it shipped directly to your home (I selected Site To Store shipping it was a nightmare).

good shelving for the price

I bought 5 units from my local store. I am storing items that are shoe box size to luggage size. Even thou the say 4,000 lbs capacity, I think that would be if you had 3/4" plywood or better. The shelving is very thin, but is good for the weight I put on them. I miss not having the ability to lock the units together. The corner posts are two pieces not one long piece. The jointing piece is not long so the unit is a little less sturdy than it could be. If you are wanting shelves for a business that you took off items and restocked a lot, this would not be the unit to buy. You would need to buy something at about triple the price. I still recommend them for what I am using them for.

pretty sturdy shelf - hard to assemble

Once this shelf unit is assembled, it seems to be pretty stable. The problem is that in order to assemble it, you have to get the top 4 3-foot standards to match end to end with the bottom 4 while fitting the riveted shelf holders into them - a bit like trying to balance one pencil on the end of another pencil while sharpening the top pencil. The assembly instructions give no clue how to accomplish this, and it takes a lot of trial and error.

Strong and sturdy

I bought two units online for my garage. They were delivered within a week. The shelving was very easy to put together. I did it myself in less than an hour but it would have been easier with another person holding the top posts. I had to prop them. Two of the particle board shelves were cracked in one of the units. Edsal Mfg was contacted as instructed in the directions, instead of returning the shelving to Walmart. There was absolutely no problem with customer service and they shipped out two replacement shelves. I am very happy with this product and the service provided by the manufacturer. I would not hesitate to buy this product again.
