Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)These shelves are like many other shelving products I've come across. They assemble by placing plastic cylinders around the vertical poles and then sliding the shelf(s) down upon the plastic cylinders. There is a slight taper to the plastic cylinders and the cylinders on the shelves which slide over them. This squeezes the cylinders tight to the vertical poles and keep the shelves from sliding down the pole.
They say no tools are necessary for assembly and this is true, though I would recommend having a rubber mallet or a hammer and a small block of wood so you can tap the shelves into alignment and definitely if you need to reposition a shelf. A box level could be useful too if you really wanted to try and get everything just right.
The nice thing about these products are they are simple to assemble and the shelf position is very customizable. The bad part is that the shelves are usually somewhat warped. Not so much that it significantly affects the structure, but enough to notice with the naked eye.
I bought two of these and both shipping cartons were fairly banged up, but everything was in relatively good shape and all parts were still in the container. The thing about buying two of these is that if you place them next to each other you may notice that the legs do not appear to be perfectly vertical. Even if you get the shelves level on both units odd are the legs will not be perfectly vertical. Not a big deal if you only have one by itself, but with two next to each other it is somewhat obvious. Just something to consider. Could probably be adjusted and straightened with a bit of labor but it is not a big deal for my intended usage of these shelves.
All in all though it's a good shelf and easy to put together. The black coating makes it look a little less harsh than stainless too.
