G-Rack Garage Shelving Unit: 150cm x 75cm x 30cm | Single bay, Black 5 Tier Unit | 175kg Load Weight Per tier (875kg Per Rack) | For your Garage & elsewhere! | Shelf unit | Van Racking

I bought these little garage shelving units recently despite a number of very critical reviews that you can find here. The little gamble paid off as those units are very easy to assemble, well designed (all tools you need is common sense and a small hammer to help the elements connect together properly), metal parts are protected with powder coating and the whole thing is very strong after assembling. Some people complained about the mdf boards going mouldy in moist environments but they probably understood moisture resistant as moisture proof. The only thing you need to put your attention to while putting it together is to slide metal catches at the ends of horizontal beams into their slots in vertical posts properly. This is the only thing that can be a bit tricky here sometimes but you just need to be careful and you'll quickly get perfect at it. I'm very happy with my purchase and I recommend it to everyone looking for affordable, strong, nice looking and easy to put together storage units. I'd avoid putting it into damp places unless you protect the mdf boards from moisture or use your own boards made of damp proof material.

This shelving unit is brilliant. Easy to build and very sturdy. I was almost put off by some reviews saying that it was wobbly. If put together properly it’s solid. One review said you don’t need a mallet.. I’d say you do or something heavy to make sure everything is slotted together nice and tight. ( I used a shinty stick LOL ) I also read a review saying you needed a screw driver to bend the tabs to fit the slots.. mine slotted together perfectly without one but I did need a butter knife to help bend the tabs on the beam ties to secure them. I built it alone with no problems. It’s not too big but has plenty of space. I needed it for a cupboard under the stairs and it fits perfectly. It’s definitely worth the money.

First a disclaimer, I'm a twit - shoudl have bought the 60cm deep ones, my bad.OK, review good points. 1) Trivial to assemble only tools required hammer (pref rubber, I used a wood block between). 2) No, you don't need pliers to bend the shelf support - put it in the slot and bend it. 3) Once put together, fairly robust. 4) Good price (have you seen the cost of Dexion?).Bad points. 1) REALLY hard to 'catch' the end on the shelf support to bend back on itself [as per instructions] so put a slight double bend in it. 2) Because it is boltless you can't easily move it once assembled - as the uprights are in two pieces they want to fall out. 3) MDF shelves quite thin, so we'll see how they hold up. 4) Feet a bit 'slight' and plastic - rubber would be better.I'll end up getting another of these (remember - 60cm, remember...) they're good enough and worth the money but I will end up drilling the uprights for a couple of bolts.

I have a small storage area in my house, which is pretty inefficiently utilized if I just leave things on the floor. Since it's a rented house, I wasn't keen on nailing shelves in the wall. I looked at a lot of shelves, but the other ones which measured at 180x90x35 cms were too large. I was almost about to buy Ikea Hejne posts, which would have been too small for what I wanted.But then I landed on these goldilocks perfect-sized shelves. They fit my area to the last centimeter!They are fairly easy to build in. I did it by myself. The horizontal beams have metal "wings" which go into a slot in the upright beams. I put the lowest shelf and the 4 uprights first. Once that was on it's feet, I kept adding shelves on top of it. You get a choice of what height do you want each shelf. Appreciate that customization options quite a bit.For most parts it's pretty sturdy. I have kept a 23 kgs suitcase on the very top and it could easily take that. I am never going to load 875 kgs on it, that's for sure. Still, there's a beam that goes in the middle of the shelf so that the MDF doesn't sag in the middle. That beam is a few mm lower than the rest of the shelf, and it is not very secure in it's place. That's the only bit I wish was more solidly "in". I don't think it will be much of an issue for me, but it's a sore point nonetheless.No other complains whatsoever. You get plastic caps to put on the bottom and top of the upright beams. It comes in a neat, but heavy package.Has connectors in case you want to use it as two sets of shelves connected to each other. All in all, a very useful product.

Excellent value for the money . Easy to assemble and great for storage .Very pleased with them .

Good quality bit of kit and easy to put together.-ignore the instructions! I found them more confusing than helpful, it is easy to put together;1. Take angled long bits and using the small angled bit connect together to make the uprights2. Connect the uprights with the short cross beams and repeat for the other side3. Connect the ladder looking bits together with the long cross beams4. Add the tie beams (see pictures for easiest way to do this- effectively insert through hole, bend round and slot through other hole)- it’s a sturdy enough bit of kit, could support my weight on a shelf and I’m north of 100kg!- if put together correctly you shouldn’t be able to see any ends of tabs from outside (see picture), they should all thread through- rubber mallet is needed (if you don’t have one then a cork and hammer would do at a pinch), small flat blade screw driver is also helpful to persuade tabs to slot throughOver all absolute bargain for the money and would recommend
