Questions & Answers
I've had the shelf up for about a year and a half. There are no signs of sagging after four months. A large number of books are stacked on some of the shelves. I'm not sure if 3 is appropriate. Four months is a good example of endurance.
a single item
The support bars are 3/4" thick and measure 12 1/8" from the top of the shelf to the bottom of the one above.
I went to take their measurements. I can not be 100% accurate because my feet are a little sunk into my carpet but the outside diameter of the feet is 1. 5 inches. I hope this has been of assistance.

I'd been looking for some taller shelving to better display some of my collectibles and to better position my wifi router, and while I hadn't heard of the brand before, I liked the look of the wood and decided to give it a shot. When it arrived, I was taken aback by the weight of the box, which I later discovered was due to the six rock solid wooden shelves that were included in it, rather than the metal frame. The frame was as good as any other I've used, the metal screw holes were slightly indented (to keep screws more flush) and not sharp, and the holes on the wood shelves had a plastic insert so screwing it to the frame wouldn't damage the area around the hole. A few extra screws and a screwdriver were included in the kit as well. The attention to detail was truly remarkable. br>br>However, it was the shelving that drew me in. They were made of real wood rather than particle board, had a beautiful finish, and were far superior to any of the other shelving I've seen in similarly priced Walmart and Aldi products (the one on the left in the photo is an Aldi product, which I still like because of how easily it can be dismantled). I'd buy from them again in a heartbeat.
This is exactly what I was looking for in a shelf. For my plant stand, I wanted a shelving unit with adjustable shelves and an open concept. br>br>Because I ordered this with the intention of customizing it, I don't have any photos of it in its original colors. However, I can attest to the stand's sturdiness, the metal's ability to hold paint colors, and the ease with which the shelves could be covered in contact paper. br>br>The metal was flawless and free of flaws. This shelf was a breeze to put together. There were no dents, bends, or buckles to be found. The shelves are sturdy, and despite applying, removing, and reapplying contact paper, the material on the shelves remained intact, not bubbling or lifting. As a result, it appears to be well-made and trustworthy.
I like a lot of things about this bookcase, and for the price, I would highly recommend it. br>br>For starters, it is well packaged, and in such a way that shipping damage should be minimal. Everything was well wrapped, and there were no scratches, dents, or chips on anything, which is important to me because I despise having to return a product. br>br>The second pleasant surprise was receiving a phillips head screwdriver, which was the ONLY tool required for assembly. I'm a homeowner, so I already have tools, but when I lived in apartments, it was critical that I didn't have to go out and buy or borrow something. I also appreciate how only one tool is required. Third, every bolt, nut, and foot that was required was carefully wrapped and packed - There are no missing or extra items on the list. When it happens with other products, either of these drives me insane. If you want to attach it to the wall, the package includes straps and screws, but I found the feet to be sufficient. br>br>Assembly was a breeze. It includes visual instructions that are simple to follow. Despite being interrupted several times during assembly, I estimate that it will take one hour to complete. In less than 20 minutes, I could do another one. Although the included screwdriver will suffice, having a ratcheting stubby screwdriver and a driver drill will expedite the process. I used the included screwdriver for the majority of the assembly, but I dashed to the garage to grab my driver drill and ratcheting screwdriver to complete the job quickly. br>br>The cross supports are fantastic. They make a significant contribution to the unit's overall strength. They also add a bit of flash to the picture. The six included shelves can be arranged in a variety of ways for spacing; I chose to do so in the manner shown. Finally, once completed, the unit is nice and sturdy, far superior to, say, something from a store that also sells Swedish meatballs. The shelves work well in my over 100-year-old home, but I believe they would work well in almost any setting. It has made me very happy. br>br>Highly recommended, especially for the price; people will think you paid a lot more than you did, but that can be your secret!.
I'd never heard of the company before, but these bookshelves have pleasantly surprised me. We already had the TV console in place, but we wanted it to feel more like an entertainment center. However, entertainment centers are very expensive, so we came up with the idea of finding matching bookshelves, which these did! It is both inexpensive and long-lasting. They were also a perfect match for our television console. We were able to save a significant amount of money by taking this route. The cost of the bookshelves and console as a whole is likely to be around $700-$800. We spent $800, which was less than the $2000 we had budgeted for an entertainment center. These bookshelves are of excellent quality. There were no flaws on them that we could find. They were put together by my husband. It took less than an hour for the two of them to complete it. I would strongly suggest it.
I like that the shelves can be adjusted, which is exactly what I needed. On my carpet, it holds up well. The color of the laminate panels is nice, and they are simple to put together. br>br>A very thin line of particle board can be seen at the edges of some of the panels. This detracts from the impression that these are genuine wood planks. This blunder would most likely go unnoticed by everyone except the person assembling the shelf. I'm hoping that other customers received better-made panels than I did. I recently ordered a different shelving unit (Homfa), which has particle board panels that deceive you. Their panels have a wood-like appearance and feel. br>br>To avoid exposing the particle board, simply treat the panel gently.
