  • Sturdy! Easy to assemble
Size: 48 x 18 x 72 Style: Double Post
I love everything about this shelf. It was easy to assemble, and is very sturdy. I have it quite loaded down. 😊

  • Basic and Functional = 5 Stars
Size: 48 x 18 x 72 Style: Single Post
Ordered this shelving unit to get our outdoor gear off of the floor in our cozy spare bedroom. I didn't really care what it looked like or anything. Just wanted something about these dimensions that was functional. It arrived at our front porch and is a fairly heavy box, so I scooted it inside and then decided to open it up right there and transfer the parts separately to where I would be assembling the unit because I did not have a second person to help me lift the box. Assembly was quite easy for just one person. Unlike other folks, none of my pieces were defective or missing, so I did not have any issues there. I also saw from other that it is helpful to use a rubber mallet to lock the shelves in to place. I would definitely echo this recommendation, as the shelves may feel sturdy when put in by hand, but when you look closely, you can see that there is a gap and you have to hammer them down to really lock in. I did not have a rubber mallet, so I used a basic hammer wrapped in a towel several times and this was sufficient to lock in the pieces while cushioning the blow enough to not damage them. I set our unit up on carpet and it felt very sturdy and has done well holding our gear for several months now. Because it felt sturdy enough and I did not want to drill a hole in our wall, I opted not to install the anti-tipping accessory that was included. I move around a fair bit, so it will be interesting to see when I move next, how easy this shelving will be to deconstruct for moving purposes. I imagine it will be fairly easy and will just be able to give them a knock with a hammer to pop back out. ... show more

  • Great Buy
Needed some storage with a relatively small footprint. When I first took it out of the box, seemed flimsy, and it did all the way up until I put the final shelf in place, then it's rock solid. I found it easy to put together. It's the interlocking construction and the sturdy shelves that make it work. Wouldn't top load it, just from past experience with such shelving, but it's really functional. Fits neatly into some tight corner of the home and is open enough to stack a good amount of items, storage boxes, etc. Not as attractive as I wanted. But the ones that looked nice weren't as functional. This model looked nice enough for a tucked away corner and gets the job done. If you're creative you could probably spruce it up. ... show more

  • The frame is a "5" but I'm giving it 4 stars because the MDF shelves are garbage
Size: 48 x 18 x 72 Style: Single Post
I purchased this to make a cat tower for my screened in patio. The metal frame is easily assembled with a rubber mallet and the frame is quite sturdy and looks much nicer than what you'd find at a big box store. I cut up some Ikea wooden bed slats that I had on hand and used them as the bottom shelf. Unlike the cheeze-ball MDF shelves that come with the unit, the bed slats are easily able to hold the heavy bins of tile I used to weigh the unit down and prevent those fat cat asses from toppling the whole thing over. The MDF shelves as I said are garbage - barely 3/8" thick and warp easily. To build the landings at each level I cut each shelf in half and alternated the half shelves so the cats could climb to the top. The remaining halves I stored with my plywood stash. After a few months, I noticed the shelves on the patio were getting really moldy - not surprising with Florida's humidity. But when I pulled out the halves that I'd put away - they too were covered in mold. Yuck! I just chucked the MDF that came with the shelves and cut new landing shelves from my scrap plywood. All in all the shelving frame is great but plan on replacing the original MDF shelves with something that can support some amount of weight and not turn into a petri dish. ... show more

  • I'm about to order another one.
Size: 48 x 18 x 72 Style: Double Post
I paid $101.35 and, although it has no rollers, it's worth it: after researching several other shelving units (mostly with rollers), it seemed to me that this is the best choice for quality, size, and durability, even though the instructions could have been somewhat better and the other units were lower in price. For those who have never put together one of these units, it takes just a few minutes to "get" the assembly instructions. You'll need a rubber or a wooden mallet or something similar -- DO NOT use a metal hammer. 15 minutes should be enough time to put it together, once you get the hang of it. Much easier with two people. If you have not assembled the unit where it's going to be placed, it will be easier (for one person) to move if you take out the pressboard shelves; the unit isn't very heavy, but it can be unwieldy. Two people should be able to easily move it with shelves in. NOTE: The rubber tops come out easily; you might want to put them on once the unit is in place. Quality seems very good; it has plenty of room (partly because of the smart engineering of the unit); strength seems good. Shortly, I'll be ordering another one of these -- perhaps two -- for my storage room and garage. I recommend this shelving unit. (Load it from the bottom - up, keeping heaviest things on the lower shelves.) It's a good buy. ... show more

  • I love these shelves
Compared to your typical heavy duty garage type shelving these are beyond super easy to assemble. I did need to use a rubber mallet to firmly lock the pieces into place. If memory serves the original description says they can be assembled without any tools but that was really not the case. Maybe by someone with a whole lot more upper arm strength. Did not detract from my opinion of them in any way. Shelves are fully adjustable and no super annoying plastic stoppers for shelf support which rarely seem to work right. They hold a good deal of weight and are not cheap looking. The only wish I had was that the plastic end caps came pre-assembled. The ends of the corner supports are very sharp (hence the plastic end caps) and I did cut myself (minor) a couple of time while trying to fit them into place. The easiest method I found was to insert the small end openings and then gently tap the corner into place with a rubber mallet. ... show more
