LEOPO 12 inch Shelf Brackets for DIY Floating Shelf, 6 Pack 1/5 inch Thick Heavy Duty Bracket, Fit for Home, Kitchen, Living Room, Bathroom, Bedroom,Garage,11.25” x 6” x 1.5”

We're very happy with our bookshelf brackets. Super sturdy looks great on the wall and super easy to install. The installation kit it comes with is really useful.

Love this shelve brackets. I bought them to put my son Lego collections. My husband bought the wood and cut it but I want some cute shelve brackets to put the wood. They are very easy to use and install. Are very sturdy and the quality is amazing for the price.

These are nicely manufactured in that they are all exactly the same (with no variations) and with nice countersunk holes for the provided black flat head wood screws. I used a stained 1x12 #2 whitewood (Eastern Pine) from Lowes for the shelves. With these brackets solidly installed into wall studs at 32" on center (every other stud) the 1x12 shelf will easily support a heavy book load. I like the look better than the brackets that have the vertical leg below the shelf. It looks a lot cleaner.It is probably inevitable that your stud layout will result in a bracket or two needing to be installed between solid wood studs. In this case, do NOT use the sheetrock wall anchors provided with the brackets as they will pull out of the wall under an appreciable load. Instead, get some "Snaptoggle" toggle bolts and replace the provided bolts with #10-24 x 1.25" flat head machine screws in black. These toggle bolts are incredibly strong and easy to install.I am adding a postscript to my review regarding bracket spacing recommendations. With a heavy book load, the 1x12 shelf boards don't sag with the brackets spaced 32" apart, however I have found that the brackets themselves are overstressed by about 30% (they are only rated at 80# each.) Heavy books weigh up to about 36# per lineal foot so the maximum spacing of the brackets should be 24" apart. At 32" apart, they won't pull out of the wall if they are fastened into studs but they will sag a little bit back to front under this load. So I added additional brackets in between the installed brackets and now they are 16" apart at the heavy book shelf. The load on each bracket is now less than 50# but they STILL sag about 3/16" from back to front when loaded with books! No danger of structural failure and the sag is not really noticeable.

The shelving brackets were easy to install and very sturdy. They have fit in different size spaces sometimes it sounds small some large we have a shelf that is 2 foot and we have shelves that are 8 foot long with these brackets. A good value - we couldn’t make brackets for this cost.

I love these brackets. They are super strong and perfect for my exposed shelves in the kitchen. The price is amazing. Home Depot has similar brackets for way more money. Highly recommend!! I really like that the bracket support faced up towards the wall rather than down. This way they were more subtle and didn't go over the tile on the backsplash.

Good product and great quality. But is little too heavy for our wall.

The 12" board I got is heavy as heck. The brackets fit in perfectly with my workbench build. It's just a shelf but it's a very heavy duty shelf so I needed heavy duty brackets. Drilled into studs, very sturdy. Looks great.

I will be honest, my house, the studs are not where they should be in the walls to follow the mounting directions on these shelves. With that being said, they are spaced a few inches further apart than the manufacturer recommends. But with that being said, I store my canned goods on these in my pantry, and I have been impressed with the fact that there is no sagging in the middle of the board, and they are level. The metal is strong, and the welds/bends are nice! I highly recommend these if you are doing any shelf, or in my case, a thorough pantry remodel. On a random whim, against your husband's pleas not to tear the whole thing apart. Even he was impressed with the quality after the 50 or so shelf bracket options we looked at.
