Questions & Answers

I want to set the shelves at different heights, especially the shelf in the middle (#3) but I notice that the corner posts are split into 2 pieces each. Must the post middle tips join at the middle shelf corners? Or can all the shelves be at any height and can the posts be joined together (with special steel pieces) even if their tips are away from all the shelves?
Asked by: Wanttoknow
It is possible if you want to get creative, but you lose some of the integrity of the unit. Take a 1x2 and use it in place of the two side and back shelf holders, I use bolts and washers to put them in solid. This way you have support for the sides and back but not the front. I would suggest if you do this that you put at least one shelf close to the center to provide for the stability lost by the front shelf in the middle

so this will hold all my liquid detergent bottles. As long each shelves can hold 800 pounds each.

Asked by: Tiny
I personally would not want to try to put 800 lbs. of anything on each shelf. Maybe 6 5ga. containers weighing 100lbs each on the lower shelves. How are you gonna get a 100lb. container off the top shelf? Also, the shelving is particle board, which is porous. Any leakage will soak into the shelves, weakening them.

How are the vertical supports connected? Do you have to use a shelf to connect then or do they have a metal bracket?

Asked by: Amanda
I had to use the shelf braces. Assembly was horrific.

I'm curious how the particle board will hold out for the long haul. Especially in a shed

Asked by: Jean
My personal experience is that it would not. Having said this, if the shelves came like they are supposed to with a coating, then that would help. Mine did not.

Customer Reviews

72 in. H x 36 in. W x 18 in. D 5-Shelf Steel Commercial Shelving Unit in Black is rated 3.5 out of 5 by 741.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from It is what it is, and it's exactly what's advertised I can't help but laugh at the negative reviews saying it doesn't look nice, or it's "cheap" or "flimsy", or it's hard to put together. Give me a break. It's engineered to do exactly what it advertises, and it does it with flying colors. For the price you won't find anything better in my opinion. I bought 3 of these initially and have since bought 2 more for my home storage needs. I can attest they hold the weight they claim, I have at least 3,500 lbs on one of them. In fact, the more weight you can add the sturdier they will be. The shelves (IF YOU ASSEMBLE THEM CORRECTLY) don't sag one single bit. Yes, they are low-grade particle board, (hence the low price you pay) but they are fully supported on all sides by the metal framing. Most of the assembly I can do by hand, with an occasional rubber mallet tap here and there. The last one I put together (by myself) took me 8 minutes. My local store quit stocking these, but since they are still being shipped for FREE it's time to order a few more.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Flimsiest storage rack ever I bought the same rack in a smaller width a few years ago and was relatively pleased. This one is nowhere near as good. The metal posts are thinner and they no longer include the plastic end cap for the posts and splice plate if you want to stack the posts (they sell those for $17 a set, otherwise a shelf is needed to hold the posts together). If you enjoy standing in the middle of a thin metal Jenga tower that threatens to crumble into pieces ever time you touch it, then this is the rack for you. If you want something that is worth the money, don't waste your time on these. I would consider spending $5 on them new but not more. Ihad to use sheet metal screws to keep it together otherwise the posts would come undone and slide down enough to let the rivets pop out. I took back all the unopened ones as they are not worth the effort

Rated 1 out of 5 by from This product is junk. It can not be reliable to hold itself together when in the specified 72 in.... This product is junk. It can not be reliable to hold itself together when in the specified 72 in. height. It will fall apart if you try to move it, or bump into it. Here's why: 1) vertical supports are two pieces, but there is no joint coupling piece to hold the two rails from falling apart if any forces other than a static vertical load is applied, ie do not accidentally push it! Note other vendors, like Monster rack, do it right and even have pictures of their joint coupling used for this purpose. 2) vertical rails are 16 gauge metal (0.050" thick) and bends easily, this can not support 4,000 lbs (more than the weight of a Honda Civic). 3) instructions on the pdf files here are not the same instructions I got in the box, mine says to stack the vertical pieces without a joint coupling, note the online pdf instructions is not for a 72 In. high unit. Thus there is no way to see these problems until you get the unit and try to assemble it.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from We had bought 3 units of some similar shelves several... We had bought 3 units of some similar shelves several years ago had them in our garage. For the bottom shelf I cut a 2x4 to 47 inches long and reduced the 3 5/8 inch width to 3 1/8. That board was placed under the bottom shelf, 3 1/8 inch side up in the middle of the shelf, end-to-end so that the shelf could hold particularly heavy items like, chains, jacks, etc. With that addition the shelves worked fine as the higher up shelves were loaded with lighter items, but still not unsubstantial in overall weight.These shelves had virtually zero support capacity. I walked past one and used a shelf as a brace as I walked by, applying minimal pressure, and the board pushed through the supports. We compared the shelf thicknesses to the prior shelves and they are much thinner and of use for only light items. Might be good for linens, but not tools or hardware.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from I found this product to be nearly impossible to assemble on one's own and impossible to get level... I found this product to be nearly impossible to assemble on one's own and impossible to get level. The idea of just stacking the top two shelves on top of the bottom two shelves without a solid brace or connector is unnerving; I half expect the product to collapse and had to zip tie the three units I purchased together in order to feel safe in using them. The product has little to no protective packaging so that virtually all the black powder coated pieces arrive chipped and scratched. If I had not been in a time crunch and needed to get the project done and over with, I would have returned the product as "junk". I also noted that the larger models (not suitable to my need) are constructed differently so read the descriptions carefully; this isn't a single product in different sizes. I have also learned that if you care about the condition or looks of the product, you need to purchase it in person and inspect its box and listen to see if the parts inside are rattling around inside the box. I personally will not order this type of product through the internet for home delivery; especially if time is of the essence.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from I ordered 8 of these units online to be picked... I ordered 8 of these units online to be picked up at store, and paid for them online. Only 3 arrived at the store and that was several days after the expected delivery date. I picked up those 3 but had to return them. The boxes did not contain the connectors to assemble the posts. Even if all the parts had been there, these units are flimsy. I don't know what gauge the posts are, but they looked as if they would bend easily. The particle board for the shelving was so thin that I doubt it would have held much weight that wasnt' supported by the cross members. It was almost impossible to cancel the order for the 5 units I had not picked up and, after more than a month, I still have not received a refund for merchandise I never picked up. HD really let me down on this one.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice, sturdy unit--Well made I worried a bit after reading that people were having problems with constructing the units--I went to Home Depot and looked at the units and found them to be just what I wanted--I also looked at the joining of the top and bottom shelves and agreed with one reviewer that a nut and bolt at the connection of the two frames would lend strength to the unit--I bought two units, had them shipped to the store and got help putting them in the car--When I built the units I paid particular attention to the joining of the units--Make sure you know exactly what you're going to do before you attempt to join them--The instructions are not that great--I then added the nuts and bolts to each corner which prevents the two sections from separating--First unit took about 30 minutes--The second one a little less--A rubber hammer is an essential tool for construction--I put the two units side by side and bolted them together--Solid and sturdy--Changing shelf height is a snap with the rubber hammer--Great product--I include a couple of pic of the units and the connections--
