These shelves are just, downright, terrible. The design is poorly thought out. It's a nightmare to assembly by yourself and you inevitably bend a number of the rivets and bars having to hammer them (which it recommends) into place. the material is not nearly as strong as you might think (hence the bending from a rubber mallet.) The vertical posts consists of two posts per corner and the method of connecting them leaves one wondering when they're going to collapse. Go to Home Depot, buy the equivalent heavy duty plastic ones. Still plenty of load bearing capacaity, much easier to assemble, and much easier to disassemble if you ever move or want to rearrange shelves. These, i'll definitely be leaving behind when I move next year.

I bought two of these today and trying to put them together. If you hit the short beams using a rubber mallet, with enough force to seat the rivet, it comes out of the metal beam Making that beam useless. So far I have 2 beams that the rivets came out of. I can see why they took the "Members Mark" logo off of these. I seriously doubt this shelf would hold 4000 pounds. They aren't worth the time it took me to drive 60 miles to pick them up. And they surely aren't worth another 60 miles to return them so I will take my lumps and properly dispose of them in the Dumpster.

These are the best shelves of this type I have used so far. By this type, I mean two-piece legs, drop in rivet shelf supports, and composition wood shelves. For one, they include a leg coupler so you don't have to use one shelf to hold the top and bottom together. Second, the legs are made of two layers of steel with the out layer being solid so you don't have to see all the sloted holes and they are very sturdy. The shelves themselves are the best evolution of this not-really-wood material yet and seem strong enough for most reasonable loads. The metal is all done with a hammered looking black/grey powder coat that makes the whole unit look great.

Best shelves for the garage. Sturdy and go well with four tiers of large black and yellow totes.
