CRAFTSMAN Steel 4-Tier Utility Shelving Unit (45-in W x 18-in D x 72-in H) & Portable 20.5-in Ball-bearing 3-Drawer Red Steel Lockable Tool Box

shelving is solid and easy to install

For my application, which was inside a closet, it was perfect. My closet width is 44" so I want with the 42" wide unit. The corner brackets are light duty. You could probably bend one over the knee. What I do like about it is that once assembled its pretty rigid and sturdy. I also like a few of the improved features. Other customers complained about the fact that is required the middle shelf to join the upper and lower corner brackets. While this is true, they also provide a connector bracket if...

Much better than I was expecting.

I bought two of these on sale and was quite surprised by their quality. The poles are metal, the shelves are metal. They are packed with a lot of plastic spacers to prevent dents and scratches. Both of mine had zero defects or damage. They really are very easy to put together. Merely screw the two halves of a pole together, put 4 brackets around each pole where you want a shelf, then slide the shelf down over the bracket. I made the mistake of first thinking the brackets were supposed to click o...

Nice shelves but not quite as rigid as wire

I needed some more shelves to hold small parts in my garage, and i was originally looking to get wire shelves with a platic cover to keep things from falling between the grates. I spotted these on clearance and decided to give them a shot since the sheet metal surface fit the bill, and the display looked nice. Overall, the shelves are definitely a good match for my garage and worked well for me. I would have preferred this to be 5 shelves like most shelves around this height though. The shel...

Great shelf

This shelf is very sturdy and easy to install! I have 4 oh these. The shelves are all adjustable and the four feet have a leveler screw in foot to level the unit. In my garage the wall has a 2 inch lip so I shortened up two mack posts so it would fit level and then fine tuned the screw in feet for the final fit to get it level. Comes with mounts to mount to wall so it can't tip over, mine is so solid I did not use them. Very sturdy and the garage looks great matches my Craftsmen tool box and wor...

Simple & Solid!

The rack is easy to put together, looks good and solid! We needed some extra storage for our garage. The 600 lb storage is more than sufficient for what most people will need. During unpacking, the rack was cleanly and neatly packaged. All screws, leveling feet, and shelving stops were placed together in a neat packaging between the shelves. Since there are only 4 legs, there is limited time spent putting them together and more time to focus on getting the shelves where you want them. Definitely...

Great Shelves

The shelves are great!! Easy to assemble and so sturdy. The red and black color combination is nice. We have bought 4 or 5 of them for our business and will buy more as we need them. For a short while, they were discontinued at Lowe’s and we had to purchase another brand and weren’t near as happy. Please keep them in stock.

Its a strong shelf, easily assembled.

I like the fact it went together very easily. Took two of us, but only half an hour. The reason two is that once you get to the top two shelves it takes two of you, one on each end, to slide the shelf onto the pole.

Just amazing and sturdy!

This has been an amazing find, I was able to grab 3 of these shelves when they went on for deal. This shelving did exactly what I hoped for, to organize my basement. The pricing I got for each was just cherry on top. Now thinking back, I would have paid $100 each too for these shelves. They were just little annoying to assemble, once I was on my 2nd shelf then I realized the right and easy way to get these assembled. Overall I am very happy with this product!

easy to put together - very solid

Everything was packaged well and was simple to unpack. One small tip for those installing this, put a small piece of tape on the clamps (not sure the correct name) that hold the shelves up. This will keep them from popping apart when you are sliding the shelves down on them. I just wish it had 5 shelves and not 4. I knew that going in but there is so much space between the shelves that a 5th shelf would be appreciated. I tried to find one online but could not find one.

Poor Quality

Very disappointed with this product. I had high hopes upon receiving and opening box, everything looked great, until I started to assemble unit. One hole (front left) on each shelf was out of align and made one pole stand at an angle which wouldn't allow the shelf to be put in place. When I attempted to apply very slight pressure to straighten out the weld snapped and the flimsy shelf buckled. Needless to say it was returned for a refund
