Not safe

I purchased 3 of them, the price was the biggest driver for me. Upon receiving the shelves, the assembly was easy for the bottom part, but the top portion of the shelf is totally unsafe. 1 - Instructions say to just place the second half on top of the other, but there is no way to secure the two. 2 - the shelves are about 5/16" of an inch thick, the side rails are taller than the shelf, which make it difficult to remove items from the shelf without dragging the edge/rails off in the process. 3 - the shelves are not meant to be self standing, you will need to attach them to a wall and secure in place. I have made some adjustments and spent $40 extra to make my three shelves safe in my garage.

Cheaper than cheap

I have an engineering degree and I have never put such terrible made assembly together. I believe the tabs are suppose to snap a different lock in the grooves. The grooves are oversized so assembling this unit is like trying to juggle six balls at once. Definitely a two person job. I bought this for my winter home and would of returned it if I didn't need to leave the next day. Would not sell this my rival

Poor Quality

I have bought similar shelves to this over the last 10 years from Sams. I am extremely disappointed in the quality of my most recent purchase of this item. It took me an excessive amount of time to assemble this unit due to the fact that the rivets will not seat into the grooves and they keep popping out even after getting multiple layers in place. It appears that you can still get the better quality shelves, but they are only offered online. I thought they were still carrying the good quality in store. Spend the extra money and get the muscle rack!

Just want we wanted

I bought these on a member only sale so the price was a bit less than the every day price and that is part of why I am happy with the purchase. Some of the reviews mentioned difficulty in putting together but we had no problems and used a rubber mallet like the picture showed. We made them into two shelves and are happy with them for garage storage but they would work great in a utility room too. I like the material that the shelves are made out of and I feel the shelves are study but I would urge folks to anchor to the wall to prevent injury.

Not thrilled

Very few of the shelf support brackets "clicked" into place and remained in place, if I moved it, they would come unfastened. I finally had to build it in place, once the shelves were installed, it seemed to hold the support brackets in place. I do believe it will stay together when loaded but worried if I pick it up to move it to a new location, it could fall apart. Will not buy another one of these. This is my first negative review ever.

Flawed Design.

If all you want is the bottom half of the unit, this will work fine. But if you want to use the top half so that you have all 6 shelves, it’s not going to work. The flawed design causes the top half of the shelf to slide down into the bottom half. It’s really a big mess and just a bunch of garbage. I always go with Members Mark brand whenever I see it and have always been happy. This was a big miss however. I think the company was desperate to find a replacement shelving unit for the old style they had (and was very good quality). They ended up with this, which looks good in photos but is absolute garbage and not practical.

Great shelving

I have about 6 of these shelving units in my basement. They hold a lot of items and are still in good condition after 5 years. Sure, it was a pain to put together, but after I did the first one, the others were a breeze. Soon I bought 5 more for my husbands shop.

Not the same quality as sold previously.

All components and details on the current model in stores are more poorly designed and constructed of flimsier material than on the similar shelving units sold a few years ago. I do not recommend buying these until an upgrade is made. The horizontal supports for shelf boards are thin and flexible. The shelves are too small for a secure fit. The vertical bar pieces stack together very tenuously. And the pin-and-keyhole connections to join horizontal and vertical components are poor fits. Sam’s Club should consider recalling these and restocking with better quality.

You need to know what you are doing before buying

These are NOT fool-proof like other more expensive shelves. The issue is the joint of the beams, which normally requires two person to put together. Hence, you get what you paid for. However, It is cheap, especially in the post-covid world we are living in. It's very tall and offers 6 shelves. I have bought 8+ of these and will keep buying for light to medium boxes.

Great Shelf - damage wasn't very noticeable

I'm giving 3 stars because the shelves are sturdy, attractive and go together easily. I'm deducted 2 stars because of the corners cut to save a couple pennies in boxing these heavy shelves. The box is 48" long x 18" wide and had 3 heavy 1" plastic straps around the width. They worked great. The bottoms, however, are 2 pieces of med weight cardboard folded over and stapled closed. UPS did a wonderful job keeping the damage to a minimum but w/out reinforcements these boxes are doomed to fail. Great shelves but my advice is pick them up in person. 3 people make assembly a breeze. Put 48" section together and add a couple shelves for stability. Put 36" section together and add top shelf. Set top on bottom with one person on each end. 3rd person adds middle shelf supports and taps them in place with a rubber hammer.
