I'm extremely happy with my purchase of these shelves they're strong, sturdy and stable. Holds lots of stuff and helps clear the clutter in my garage. Great Item! Thanks Sam's Club for always having excellent products and keeping the prices affordable for people who are on a budget.

Very sturdy and is helping me organize my life. I bought a total of six to put paint on, dog food and treats, pantry items , exercise equipment, and tools. Laundry supplies. Swimming and beach supplies.

Very easy to put together. Holds many totes, depending on which way you put them on the shelf. I really want to replace all of my shelves in my garage with these.

I was able to lift this shelving unit alone, and into my car. I assembled it in 30 minutes and organized my storage closet. I will be getting one more!

This shelving unit is amazing. I love how easy it was to put together and the fact that you can easily change the height if it's to high for you. The depth of the shelves is great I love that. I will probably will be purchasing another one. Great product. You will not be disappointed.

Sturdy, yet lightweight! Easy to assemble and move around. The 27 gallon totes fit tightly on each shelf, which the black and gold matches for both!

My barn is a large storage building. Yet no matter how big, space always fills up. Work tools and power equipment on one side, yard tools and landscaping equipment on the other. Once again what got me was Sam's Club incredible price. These shelves are sturdy, can be attached to the wall for safety, and can be adjusted at the bottom for better balance on the floor if needed, but the best part for me is the convenience. It can be a combination of, for example, a 2 shelf/3 shelf set of shelves and so on with just one 5-tier set. A shelf can be removed to make a larger opening for a large container or item to fit on a shelf. I started out with two Member's Mark 5-tier shelves and went back for three more. The shelves help me use up the once wasted space on the upper walls. The loft of my storage barn can also use the 5-tier shelf because it can be made into two (or more) lower fitting shelves (for the price of one) for that upper space. You can customize the shelves to fit your needs. Now I have too much shelf space (for now, anyway) and more open space inside my storage building barn.

If you go the full 5 shelves high, it does seem a little flimsy. It will work just fine though. I feel that the price is a little steep for the lack of stability provided (without the support brackets.) if I needed more, I would purchase again. I would spend the extra money though and get the bigger metal shelves if you have the room and the money to do so. I bought a set the same time as I got these for comparison and it definitely worth spending the extra money.

I've been using this shelving unit for fairly light duty in my garage for 2.5 years. The heaviest I've loaded it is one shelf has a case and a half of water bottles and 2 gallons of water (nowhere near the 200 lbs/shelf description). And the unit is buckling--the shelves are sagging and the support posts are bowing out. I would not purchase again. (Two stars only because it worked for 2 years.)

It may be capable of holding the 1000 pounds listed, but with less than 100 pounds, shelves noticeably sag and make fitting containers below difficult.
