Easy to Assemble
This 3-tier rack is one of the easiest things I had to assemble in my entire life. There are zero screws and tiny parts that can get lost in the process. You just have to twist everything in place. The assembly is very straightforward. The first step involves attaching the feet at the bottom. The second is to turn the tubes to attach them to the boards. The last step requires you to twist the caps in place on top of the tubes. I timed myself, and I spent roughly ten minutes putting the shelf together. Anyone who hates long and tedious setups would surely love this.
As the setup is extremely simple, the shelf can be taken apart without difficulty. In fact, this was one of the main reasons why we got this shelf in the first place. My husband’s job requires us to move from one state to another every 6 months. As a result, we tend to buy furniture that are lightweight and easy to transport. This shelf fits the bill. You can also store it away in case you’re not going to use it.
Durable
For a low-priced item, the shelf is very sturdy. It has a bit of a wobble to it but it’s nothing concerning. Make sure to have it on a leveled floor to help keep its balance. Anyway, once you fill the shelves up with your things, the weight should minimize the wobbling. My other advice is to put heavier things on the bottom shelves. Take note of the 25-lb. weight limit of the shelves, and you shouldn’t get into any trouble. Although the rack itself is lightweight, it does not tip over. The shelf does come with cable ties, which you can use to anchor the shelf to something much more stable.
So far, the storage rack is holding up well. The shelves haven’t bent under the weight of our tools (we use ours to hold my husband’s tools).
Smart Design
The design was obviously well-thought of. The way the tubes attach to one another allows you to stack more shelves and form a taller rack. You can also opt to leave one shelf off and make a shorter rack. In any case, this versatility is great.
The look of the shelf is simple but it doesn’t look cheap. We have the shelf in Americano, and I’m happy that the color is as dark as it is in the pictures. We wanted a shelf that hides dust well, and a dark-colored shelf does exactly that. The rack comes in a variety of colors, so there should be something that would appeal for everybody.
I also like the fact that this multi-purpose shelf is space-saving. It does not take up a lot of space in our rented apartment. I would recommend this for studios, small bedrooms, and apartments.
Easy on the wallet
I can’t end this review without mentioning how affordable this shelf is. This is a fantastic alternative for expensive wooden shelves. I understand no one wants to end up with a low-quality item which may happen if it’s got a low price tag. Well, you can take your chance on this shelf. Take my word for it!
