What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise the shelving unit for its sturdy metal framing, rigid construction under heavy loads, and tool-free assembly completed in 10-15 minutes. Many highlight the adjustable height feature and customizable configurations for garages and basements, with several purchasing multiple units. The value for the price is frequently emphasized as excellent. A small number express concern about particle board shelf deflection under maximum load or note missing parts upon arrival, though most find the unit well-built and worthwhile despite these isolated issues.

Best shelves ever - sturdy and roomy

Would Recommend

These are fantastic shelves. I have had 2 sets in my garage for years. When it was time to organize my garage further, it was a no brainer to buy 2 more sets. They are amazingly strong and sturdy, and hold a great deal. They are easy to put together. I also have a few sets of cheaper, smaller, all metal shelves. There is no comparison. I love these.

So much sturdy storage

Would Recommend

I thought I may need two - but I'm pleasantly surprised by how much one of these things holds! Put together alone in about 40 minutes (I was taking my time). I can see what others said about the particle board, but for now it's great and I don't live in a wet climate. Great product and value.

Photo is deceiving

Would Not Recommend

The shelf seems ok but I purchased 4 because the one photo of the underside of the shelf shows wire and support brackets. I was looking for something with the extra support with wood on top to protect what I was sitting on them. Unfortunately when I assembled the 1st shelf it didn’t have either of those things just the particleboard shelf. The other three will be going back in the morning

These Shelves are Great!

Misleading

Would Not Recommend

In the only photo displaying the underside of the shelf it shows metal mesh. Shelves with only wood and no metal all eventually sag. I would not have purchased.

Fits my need

Would Recommend

I bought this for the purpose of putting the black and yellow storage bins in them. It is perfect for them. I had a little oops with putting the shelves together… the directions are REALLY TINY and I installed the racks for the shelves upside down. Once I figured out what happened, it was pretty easy and quick to flip them over and put them the right way. I like that the shelves are adjustable and I can move them to my chosen shelf height.

Not 25 minutes…

Would Recommend

The instructions said it’ll take 25 minutes to assemble. The first one took 60 minutes and the second 25 minutes but only after a neighbor came to my rescue. Why? The directions aren’t clear how to use the connectors to join the lower to upper shelves. Once the wood panels are installed the shelve seem durable. Four stars due to the funky connector that makes it hard to move the shelf.
