Best shelving units we've ever had. Have some in garage and now added more to the basement to get things organized. Easy to assemble, extremely strong solid shelves so everything is easy to store and it doesn't fall over, very sturdy - they don't wobble, and the appearance is wonderful not having to see all the holes for shelf locations.

The frame and shelf supports for this rack are pretty good. I expected something a little more sturdy to support the advertised 4000 pounds than what I received. The shelf boards are supposed to support 800 pounds each however 3 of the boards did not even survive the shipping process. This appears to be 3/8 inch press board covered in something like vinyl. I think it will hold up for what I need and if the boards break I will just replace with 1/2 inch plywood.

I now have 5 of these and they are excellent for my needs. I would strongly suggest that you pick them up at the store instead of having them shipped. They aren't packaged well enough to protect the corners of the shelves from the beating the shippers will give them.

Open the box before you buy. Only store that had them was 1.5 hours away. Bought 2 and got home and one had 2 broken shelves in it. Drove 1.5 hours back to store and exchanged the one and bought another because we liked them got back home and found 3 shelves cracked in one box there was no box damage on either one that was broken. Was not making that drive again. Decided to purchase another somewhere else

Metal is lightweight, and bends easily, not nearly as sturdy as the similar shelves we’ve bought in the past. Shelves are easy to put together, and appear to be capable of holding the stated weight. They seem to be adequate for our use. I like that they are deeper than the older shelves were.

They do what they need to, and the assembly is rather simple. The main reason I gave the shelves a 3* is because they are pretty flimsy. While building and when they are up, not a sturdy material. While we were putting one together the metal of one of the sides of the shelves bent.

The finish on the framing is much nicer than most similar shelves. If you choose to assemble this as one tall vertical unit, you’ll appreciate the way the uprights stack. Similar shelves require you to have a shelf at the halfway point in order to attach the uprights together. These shelves use an insert that joins the uprights together securely while maintaining access to all of the shelf positions. Shipping really beats up the outer box, but I didn’t notice any damage to the product itself.

These shelves are great! I have them set up in both the half and half configuration and the full standing shelf. I love them both ways. Sturdy, easy to put together. Good quality. I've had two in my garage for a couple years and just added some more of the same kind.

I thought for the higher price and the steel beams that this would be a much sturdier shelving unit. Rivets are supposed to lock the shelves into place, I would say only 60% do. Maybe I received a bad unit, I don't know. The unit is to heavy to take back so I will use it but it will be for lighter storage items. I had intended the shelving to be used for 15-20 lb totes.

When trying to assemble these shelves alone, there are issues to get the first shelf mounted in the four support pillars. You also have to be very careful when inserting the additional shelves to make sure the protruding shelf support engages into the slot on the pillar correctly to catch on both sides of the opening. If it doesn't, you have to use a screw driver to wedge/reset the opening as the side that did not catch gets bent inward and will never catch until bent back open. Many reviewers comment on the lack of good support from the little plastic joints provided for use between the top and and bottom sections of the support pillars. All I can say is these little plastic pieces are nothing more than placeholders to assist getting a shelf mounted over the joint to ensure the pillar top and bottom sections stay together. This also means you have live with a shelf set at this height whether you like it or not. The shelf bottoms are nicer quality than expected and altogether (once assembled) it is sturdy.
