Box maybe a little heavy for some people laid out on the floor protect your floor wherever you decide to install it first as not to scratch your tiles or wood floor or even your garage floor easy to put together a short to space your shelves evenly for best results or for your personal use that's the good part now the bad this medals frame uses compressed boards as shelves they claim it can hold a more than adequate weight I am not about to test it with bowling balls but will be cautious to what I put on what Shelf carefully inspect each shelf both sides for cracks and chips as that will eventually break one of my Shell's had a chunk taken out on the underside of a corner I decided it wasn't worth the Effort contacting the manufacturer, but since you are now asking I'm letting you know. I would recommend this this is the second one I have

This is a very sturdy shelf unit that gives you a lot of options. I have now bought three of these packs, and have made six 4-foot units with them. They definitely live up to their weight ratings and I'm using two of them for storing canned goods, and those shelves are quite full. When assembling them, make sure that you read the directions and use a rubber mallet to firmly seat the shelf rails.

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.

This was the perfect solution to our storage needs. It was easy to assemble and possible for one person to put together although easier with two. The biggest issue was wrestling the box from the car into the house. It worked so well we purchased 4 units in total.

I love these storage shelves! I started with two sets and ended up getting six! They are super easy to put together, all you need is a small hammer, and are very solid. I love the solid wood particle shelves, unlike many with a wire floor. I purchased the 24 inch wide unit for storage flexibility. Also loved the price. Very reasonable!

Outstanding! Carries a LOT of weight and is secure once assembled. Simple, but requires a bit of precision during assembly. Much better than 5-tier plastic shelving and no dipped shelves frome weight. Only $20 more than the heavy plastic shelving and FAR better in the long run. We have already purchased 12 of these to replace other lesser shelving units!

The description says each shelf can hold up to 800 lbs but the shelves themselves don't secure into place. I put this shelf together 2 weeks ago and already have issues with the bottom shelf beam bending outward, allowing the shelf itself to slip off the beam, nearly breaking from the weight of 4 cases of beer.

Sturdy shelf for the most part, however the metal pieces that support the shelves tends to bow. My husband added a thin piece of wood as a middle support for the shelves, having to drill a hole in the front and back supports and secure with a screw. Also, they changed the metal shelf extenders to tiny plastic extenders (we had purchased the same shelf 2 years prior) which offer way less support than the metal.

Overall, a good quality product. Easy to assemble. The only defect was the plastic L shaped cushions did not fit onto the bottom of the shelves. After much frustration, I had to eventually cut off the tips to make them fit. Other than that, a great product. I would buy it again.

The system is not sturdy. Sam's sells another silver metal shelving system that is much higher quality. I bought this one thinking it was a shorter version of the first one. Not the same metal or height. We bent 3 supports trying to get the shelves to 'sit' onto the shelf supports. I got what I paid for. Just wish I could take this back to the store with the bent supports.
