I really love these things. I can put them together by myself. They are very sturdy and last forever. These I purchased to add to the ones we already had.
I BOUGHT THESE SHELVES TO REPLACE WIRE SHELVES THAT I HAD THAT WERE NOT STRONG ENOUGH FOR MY NEEDS. I HAVE ORDERED WIRE SHELVES IN THE PAST FROM OTHER BRANDS. THERE WERE PACKAGING PROBLEMS WITH THE OTHER BRANDS. THE METAL POLES WOULD BECOME LOOSE AND CAUSE KINKS IN THE WIRES FROM COLLIDING WITH THEM DURING SHIPPING AND HANDLING. THE NYLON TIES THAT FASTENED THEM TO THE SHELVES WOULD SNAP. THESE STAPLES BRAND WIRE SHELVES COME PACKAGED SO MUCH BETTER. THE POSTS COME PACKAGED IN TWO BUNDLES OF FOUR. ONE BUNDLE HAS THE BOTTOM HALVES AND THE OTHER BUNDLE HAS THE TOP HALVES. THE BUNDLES HAVE CARDBOARD END CAPS THAT ARE TAPED ONTO BOTH ENDS. THESE BUNDLES ARE THEN FASTENED ONTO THE SHELVES WITH NYLON TIES. THE SHELVES HAVE SPACERS BETWEEN THEM AND ARE THEN FASTEN TOGETHER WITH NYLON TIES. THE CARDBOARD BOX IS THICK AND HOLDS UP WELL DURING SHIPPING AND HANDLING. EVERYTHING ABOUT HOW THESE SHELVES ARE PACKAGED SHOWS THAT STAPLES CARES ABOUT WHAT CONDITION THEY ARRIVE IN. THESE SHELVES ARE OF SUPERIOR QUALITY. THEY ARE STRONG AND DURABLE AND FINISHED VERY WELL. I WOULD DEFINITELY BUY THESE AGAIN. EVENTUALLY I WILL BE REPLACING THE SHELVES FOR MY HOME THEATER SET-UP.
These shelving units are fantastic. I have purchased almost a dozen of them for use in my plant. Many websites sell them however with my Staples account granting me free shipping as well as earning me rewards the choice of purchase with them was a simple one! I purchased several extra shelves with each of the units I purchased. This allows for expanding the usage of each unit tremendously. I really like that these are so adjustable. You can position the shelves however you like in spacing so that you can fit items and products of different heights with no problem.
The quality and price of this shelving unit offered by Staples cannot be beat. I've been back three times to order additional units. The ease of assembly is a plus as well.
These are great very easy to put together even by yourself and they are very sturdy. I got three then ordered two more I liked them so much. Very good product and a good price. Love the size!
The shelving unit was purchased to store electric kitchen appliances when not being used. I wanted the open design for air circulation in and around the appliances. The unit was much sturdier than I expected. It was super simple to put together. The only regret is that I didn't purchase a wider unit. I plan on purchasing a second unit in the near future.
