Easy to put together

Pros: easy to put together. Lots of available space. Easy to move around. Extra hardware provided for modular arrangements. Cons: shelf height limited to a constant. They provide mounting hardware but mounting points aren't 16 on center to match with stud. I would buy again depending on price.

Nice quality shelving

These are a nice heavy weight quality shelving unit. It came nicely packed. I like the black color. Easy to put together. I will use these shelves in the basement for seasonal storage or In The garage for tools or yard supplies. I like the quality and ease of setup.

Good Shelving.

Good Shelving. I was concerned about how these would hold up as they are plastic shelves. I normally would not purchase plastic shelves out of fear of them being unstable. Needless to say so far these selves have been sturdy. Very easy to put together and placed a some good weight in them as well.

Do not buy!

Can’t handle half of the rated suggested weight. Selves collapse with barely anything on them. The supports are plastic , not g. After they collapse and break apart you’re not able to return the item because it’s broken. These racks are Bad financial investments that don’t work.

Label pics and weights are incorrect

Does not hold anywhere near weight or totes as advertised. Seems it will hold moderately sized things for decent garage organization. We put a 50 pound Christmas tree on the very top and that shelf started buckling in the middle. It looks as if some mid shelf supports could be placed there or were intended to be there, but there’s nothing there for reinforcement and we still haven’t figured out a way to just do so ourselves. Instructions say to place heavier weighted items on the bottom shelf, which makes sense regardless, but due to size, we intentionally bought this to have the tree up out-of-the-way. Also bought it to load up black and yellow totes pictured, but they don’t fit. We have whatever the most standard size is and they just barely don’t fit, but it seems like the next size under would fit fine. We ended up getting two of them and for general garage organization, they work very well.

Very Sturdy. Can’t say enough about it.

Let’s start by saying how sturdy this thing is compared to other plastic shelves I’ve owned. You could put this in your garage or anywhere and put some heavy stuff on it. I am using it right now as a plant starter. After spring I will be using it for its more suitable things. It’s super tall when put together straight up. You can also put it together side by side . The instructions on assembly were super easy to follow and the only issue I had was putting the caps on the top shelf over the holes in the corners. I would recommend this to anyone who needs heavy duty storage shelves . You won’t be disappointed !

Easy to assemble - multiple configurations - Great

This shaving system arrived in a neat stack of shelves, poles and parts. The instructions could have been a bit better to clearly identify parts and how to assemble. However, I am fairly handy, so I figured it out pretty quickly. I really like that the shelves are plastic and lightweight (made it easier for me to carry and install by myself), but sturdy and heavy duty for long term use. Also, I like that the system came with "T" connectors so I could configure the shelves any way that I needed. I wish I had taken a "Before" photo of the disorganized mess I was going to conquer with these shelves! I love the final results! I am so happy that these shelves went together quickly and allowed me to create some organization in an afternoon. I will be buying more of these!

LOVE these shelves. Top quality!!!

I have to say, this is one of the sturdiest set of shelves I have ever had. They hold up to 1,000 lbs and are 5 shelves high. The nice part about them is they send you an extra set of feet and top hole covers to make a second set, if you don’t want to have it 5 high. You can easily do a three tier set and a two tier set and they send you pieces that side into the side of the shelves and you can attach them to each set. They also send you these “u”” shaped wall attachment pieces to you can secure your shelves in place! I love these and will be buying more!!! And it helps that they look nice, too!

It's an “ok” product.

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.

Quality shelves for reasonable price.

I bought 4 of these shelving units to use in basement storage area. I was initially considering metal shelves, but decided to go with these to save money and I’m happy that I did. They seem really high-quality and sturdy. They were easy to put together, and I like that I was able to customize the height of each unit. So instead of Having four units that are five shelves tall I made five units that are four shelves, tall and Members. Mark gives you the extra hardware to do that included.
