I LOVE these racks but shipping sure does a number on them. I purchased 4 sets of the beautiful gray ones. Most of the top stoppers were cracked and unusable. Not a big deal for me since these are in the basement. Some of the shelves also had bends in them and some nicks. If they were going anywhere other than in the basement, I'd have exchanged them. I have purchased hundreds of these racks for my work and they hold up incredibly well. I think they need sturdier boxes and corner guards for the ones that are shipped.

I have ordered 2 of these in the past and they were great! However the most recent one I was nervous about because the box was VERY damaged!! I got it put together and when I got to the very last shelf there was a HUGE dent in it! Not sure if this was due to the shipping company or sams club but I was very disappointed! I can’t send it back and I am over 2 hours from a store!! So now I have a 5 rack shelf instead of 6. :(

I put two of these together by myself, and came up with this method: Assemble poles and wheels. Thread poles through the first shelf, and secure it as the bottom shelf. Lay the assembly on end, supported by four wooden blocks. I used pieces of 2x4. Set the plastic support pieces for the next shelf, and slide the shelf into place. Repeat for each shelf. You can move the blocks as needed. You could even assemble the lower shelves before screwing in the upper poles. Less chance for scratching. I might try that next time.

I purchased 2 of these to replace 2 that I had bought the day before and returned. These shelving units are excellent. They are very heavy duty and easy to assemble. I put them together myself in less than an hour for both units. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase more, if and when I need them!!

My husband and I purchased this and put it together a few days ago. Both of us are somewhat handy but for some reason we always take forever to put stuff together. This takes no handiness whatsoever and we had it together in 15 minutes! Now all of our bottled water, toilet paper, diapers, etc. are stored in our basement out of site. Great purchase. I will definitely buy another one if we need similar storage in the future.

These are EXCELLENT storage - don't waste your time with plastic shelving, spend the extra $20ish bucks for this. Easy to move around when needed, holds a lot and we use "S" hooks to increase storage of other misc items. We recently purchased 4 more to add to the 2 we aleady had - 2 in the garage and 4 in the basement additional storage.

I purchased this item in 2003 and love it so much that after moving to South Dakota this year, and having the moving company loose the shelves, I am attempting to find the manufacturer so i can purchase shelves and use it again. I felt the price may have been a bit high but the quality of the product makes up for it.

I bought these shelves for use in my business. Love them! Easy to assemble and very sturdy! I have a heavy piece of equipment on one of the shelves and this unit holds it stable no problem. I plan to purchase more very soon. The casters are great - I can move the shelves easily to get behind them if necessary. I recommend the 48". It's not as big as you think and it gives you lots of shelf space.

I have a small shop attached to my retirement home and space is very valuable to me. I bought 2 of these units last year (2009) and used them as both half size and rooling as well as fixed units. I am going up today to buy another. they are GREAT for sizing the distance between each shelf and for putting on top of a work bench. better then any shelf i have ever bought! and as good as any I have ever custom built !!!

I have purchased 30 or 40 of these shelving units for our factory floor and our maintenance crew finds them relatively easy to assemble. They come with a shelf liner which makes storing smaller parts easy as well as larger containers. I also feel they are a great for use in a very flexible manufacturing environment, casters included. I plan to purchase more for both work and home in the future.
