It's 23 years old. I'm not sure where the other measurement came from in the description, but it was 75" long and 6" wide.
It's a clear glass.
From the wall to the outer edge of the shelf, it measures 6 and 1/8 inches. I used cork screw wall anchors from Ace Hardware or Home Depot to hold it in place. The half-inch round ones were what I went with. They are very sturdy and self-screw into sheet rock. Yes, the shelf is very strong when it is anchored in this manner. I am ecstatic. best of luck

I was looking for small, light-blocking shelves to place near my office window - These are ideal, and they're relatively easy to put together. The brackets were 16 inches apart, and the shelves were 7 inches apart. To give you an idea of the size of the frame on the top shelf, it's a 5"x7". Instead of the plastic anchors that came with the kit, I used heavy-duty drywall anchors.
However, a word of caution! A Philips head screwdriver, a drill with a 3/8" or larger bit, and a pencil or felt tip for marking are all required. Are you aware of the location of Your Studs? Know how to use a stud finder if you have one. Creating a level surface. A third hand, in addition to a level, is beneficial. Remember to mark the hole and cover it with tape to keep the paint or plaster from chipping (if you're working on an older home). Drill deep; the screws must be flush with the bracket in order for it to slide on. When marking hole placement, be careful not to drop the square nut on the back. You won't be able to locate it ever again. Install brackets, adjust vertically with a screwdriver, and admire.
as a result of which I've created one of my favorite self-portraits Glass blowing pieces were constructed and shattered. In the house, there was a loud crash. My wife and I both rushed to find out what had happened. This is what I discovered when I opened the bathroom door. Our two vases, as well as our self-made vase The toilet tank lid was shattered, and the built-in glass blown orb showpiece came crashing down. The pictures, on the other hand, do an excellent job of explaining the rest of the damage. br>br>It turns out that the culprit was a worn-out hole where the screw was supposed to go. The only items on the shelf were two small glass blown orbs that weighed no more than 3 pounds each and two vases that weighed less than 4 pounds each. As a result, there should have been no problem with weight. My wife and I spent the next two hours cleaning everything in our immediate vicinity and making sure there were no glass splinters on the floor. The vases are replaceable, but the glass blown orb is not. I'm going to return the broken shelf and replace it with something more durable.
Because it's 24 inches wide, it perfectly fit my small bathroom vanity. The mounting brackets aren't the best in terms of quality, but once they're in place, you won't even notice them. It's very simple to put it together (in my opinion), and the brackets can be placed anywhere on the shelf, though I went with the far edges. It's ideal for providing additional storage above my sink!.
br>Then I placed a second order for a couple more. br>These appear to increase in price in response to demand, then become unavailable for a period of time before returning to under $20. br>That's when I stock up on a few, but they're well worth it at any price; I adore them. br>br>I have a total of ten of these. br>I've gotten used to putting them up, so any issues are nothing new to me. br>I also only put about 10 pounds on them (this is not a bookshelf, though the glass appears to be tempered properly for a large amount of weight), but I don't see why they shouldn't hold more if you go into studs and use ALL the parts? I will continue to purchase these because I adore them.
These are simple to install if you have the right tools. I bought four to help add flow and openness to our master and guest bathrooms, and they've been up for over a month with no issues. They were beautifully packaged and delivered to the post office; I would have preferred that they be delivered directly to our home, but I'm guessing that since we ordered four, the seller wanted to make sure we got them without any problems. I would and will buy a few more as our home remodeling progresses.
My bathroom has almost no counter space, which is inconvenient when I need to get hair products, face cream, or make-up. I've been going in and out of my linen closet a lot recently. (I'm also unable to place anything under the sink due to a demon-possessed sink. ) Every safety lock I've bought has been broken by my toddler. )br>br>Because my master bathroom has two sinks, I purchased two of these shelves to place beneath my mirrors and just above the sinks. They allow me to stack a lot of stuff on each shelf, but they do droop slightly. However, I can't entirely blame the shelves because we live in a factory-built home with extremely thin walls. I'm also unable to screw them as tightly as I would like due to a lack of a tool that allows me to tighten the screws sufficiently. I can't use a regular screwdriver because I have to screw from beneath the shelves, which means I'll hit the sink and the counter. I believe that the wall hooks could be slightly more accessible if the screws were reversed in some way, and that it would be much easier to install. Regardless, they are extremely strong and long-lasting. Hairspray, mousse, face cream, deodorant, lotion, and a small amount of make-up are among the items in my bag. My shelf is full of them. On his shelf, my husband keeps his hair gel, deodorant, beard trimmer, and oils. They hold all of these products in place without falling off or collapsing the shelves, despite their drooping.
Don't get me wrong: I think the shelves are lovely. They're perfect once they're up, but getting them up was a different story. First and foremost, properly aligning all of the drill holes is extremely difficult. It would not be difficult for the manufacturers to include a drill hole template. This would save me a lot of time, and the anchors that came with the materials were terrible. When I tried to force them into the drill holes, they completely bent and smashed. It was necessary for me to go out and purchase some. The cost of a 50-piece pack is around $3. Is it not possible for them to just use high-quality materials? br>br>I was also perplexed as to why the bracket had a loose back piece. It appeared to me that it was simply a component of the bracket. It just made holding the bracket in place before screwing it in a little more difficult. br>br>To sum it up, the shelf's design aesthetic is flawless. It appeals to me and appears to be of excellent quality. The installation, on the other hand, was a complete disaster. I had a lot of expletives in my vocabulary. I've also installed a lot of things without cursing. That is quite a compliment. Even when I was just recalling the installation process rather than actually doing it, I had a hard time not cursing during this review.
