Raybee 72''H Garage Shelving, Storage Shelves 2010LBS, Adjustable 5 Tier Metal Shelving, Closet Garage Shelves Pantry Shelf for Kitchen Closet 72''H*31.7''W*16.3''D

Why did you pick this product vs others?: It appeared to match what I wanted and had good reviews. I was a little tentative about putting it together since a few reviews mentioned that it took a lot longer than the buyer had anticipated and at least one person mentioned that two people doing the job was a huge asset. I have a hard time imagining why all the negative reviews about length of time and difficulty putting it together were for this product. I am nearly 85 years old, a woman (but fairly handy with tools, etc) and my trepidation was all for nothing. This is a very straightforward kit, great instructions with lots of useful illustrations. The parts all went together very nicely (a little 'convincing' needed to get the shelves to fit flush...one corner was reluctant to settle in but with the little mallet and some 'body english', they dropped in right away. I am very impressed with the materials and quality of manufacturing for the parts and for the ease of putting together. I definitely did not need another person to assist. I was done with assembly in I got the unit that is about 5 ft high, nearly 4 ft wide, with 4 adjustable shelves some 20" deep. The little mallet that is included is great. I took my time, working carefully, some short breaks. Done in less than 2 hours. It is very stable and the stuff I had intended to store on it is in place, same day. And, big bonus is that this comes in a box that is only 5" thick and there was a minimum of packing materials but yet everything was packed to provide safety for the materials. Small parts were nicely packaged and almost no waste that I can't recycle where I live (a rural area so we don't have recycling for everything).

The instructions were clear and accurate. Easy to assemble, configure. Well-built and sturdy. Good price in my opinion.

Aquarium Hobbyist Review: Let me start by saying this shelf is SUPER easy to put together, anyone that says its hard to assemble or unstable either wasn't following the directions or didn't do it right. I got the shelf assembled by myself in about an hour. Everything is straight and even, no scuff, no marks, no bad parts. My only complaint is that the shelves are a tad flimsy, they can hold weight no problem but if you have a bit more weight on one side than the other the shelf tends to have a slight flex to it making it appear warped. I have 3 of the 4 shelves currently assembled with (2) 5.5 Gallon on top, (1) 20 long in the middle, then (1) 10 gallon on the bottom shelf that will be swapped for another 20 long in the very near future. I will post photos of the shelf later to show how I have it setup. The only thing I will be "altering" is that ill be adding some plywood under the tanks to just help better distribute the weight of the fish tanks. Overall I would purchase this stand again if I needed to replace it or wanted to add more tanks.

I recently purchased the Raybee Heavy Duty Metal Shelving, and I am extremely impressed with its performance and versatility! This compact garage shelving is provides stable support and is easy to move around should you decide to change locations. The special interlocking design allowed me to assemble it quickly—within just 10 minutes—and the included mallet and gloves made the process even smoother. Constructed from quality metal, this shelving unit is remarkably sturdy, with a total load capacity of 1600 lbs and each shelf supporting up to 400 lbs. Its adjustable connectors make it easy to customize the height of each layer, accommodating various objects, and I appreciate how the shelves can be reconfigured into multiple tier options for different storage needs. This shelving unit works perfectly in my garage but could also be used in a basement or other storage area. It not only maximizes my storage space but also keeps everything neat and organized. I highly recommend this heavy-duty shelving for anyone looking to enhance their storage solutions!

Excellent shelves for indoors, I own 4 of these units. Aesthetically very nice compared to most low cost "garage shelves". Fairly sturdy, better under compression (with items on the shelves). I'd recommend buying two units to have more flexibility with the number of shelves per unit and height of shelves.

I've been buying at Amazon for many years and this is the first time I've wanted to write a review. I am very happy with this shelving unit. It looks great and was relatively easy to put together. (Note that I'm 75 and I assembled it alone.) So here's my review... Too often products arrive slightly damaged because they were inadequately protected by their packaging. Sometimes they are missing parts or assembly instructions. This unit's carton showed some signs of being bumped around, but the inside packaging was so thorough, every piece came out in pristine condition. The shelves especially were additionally saved from the bumping by thick, multilayered cardboard corner strengtheners. The result, no scratched parts, no bent or twisted parts. Included with the parts was an easy to understand and follow assembly manual, and even, as promised, a good pair of protective gloves. They company also included a small rubber mallet to use during assembly. I personally found it too small and light, perhaps because of my age, so I used a larger one that I owned. And those corner strengtheners mentioned earlier made great paint protectors so my heavier mallet left no marks. The design of unit is excellent. When all the vertical and horizontal pieces were assembled, I double checked with the mallet that all connections were solid before inserting the shelves. They all fit easily and are perfectly level. The whole operation, from unpacking to finished unit, took me about two hours. This includes making coffee and one break to stretch my hamstrings. All in all, I'm very happy with how the unit arrived, and even happier with how the finished shelving looks.

First, let me just say this shelving unit is definitely an upgrade from the traditional rack shelves of the past. The double walled uprights are a major improvement for stability and strength. And the all metal shelves with the bracing ribs complete the unit with incredible strength and durability. My biggest complaint from prior wood shelves was the warping and/or molding from using them in a garage or cold room. This is no longer an issue. My only complaint was that based on the advertising, I assumed these shelves were metal wrapped around a core material to give them their thickness and strength. I was disappointed at first when I saw that that were just metal with bent over sides and ends to make the appear thicker. I was afraid they would end up bending and getting ruined with any significant weight. However, this was not the case. With the extra support from the ribs underneath, these are impressively sturdy shelves. And to include a small rubber hammer and gloves for assembly, you’ve got yourself a great product?

These shelves don't look sturdy while you're assembling them but they are. I have three with hunf=dreds of pounds of gear on them. Fairly easy to assemble and strong.
