Using for 3D printers and it is great for it.
Right now I have two 3D printers, a bunch of 3D printer filament, and a big air filtration system all on this shelf and it is all very sturdy with it all which is exactly what I wanted. The customizable shelf placement was perfect for arranging all of the space for the 3D printers. I was able to just press down hard for most of the fitting of the shelf supports (where they recommend using a hammer), though I did have to use a hammer for a couple spots to get the pegs to slot all the way into place. I love how this is made of aluminum, which allows it to be very sturdy yet lightweight.

Sturdy and strong, however..
If your like me and have a 40 gallon breeder aquarium this stand isn't the right fit. I'm gonna have to make some modifications so the aquarium can fit on the top of it with some longer and wider boards. I like the shelves but if I would have known it wasn't gonna fit just enough I wouldn't have bought.

Very sturdy
These shelves are very sturdy and the perfect size. We have two of them that we use in our basement for food storage and I'll for sure be getting another one if we ever end up needing it.

As Advertised
It provides the shelf space we needed near the kitchen and ties into the space well. The security loop gadget is a minor flaw.

Much Much Better than expected, so I bought another.
Normally, I view Amazon Basics as a hold your nose and hope product because it has a good chance to be suboptimal. These shelves are not that way at all; they are very very good. Machining is precise, all the items fit exactly as they should. Assembled easily. Light weight to move around. The shelve boards are okay, and not warped. No odd odor. I recommend a rubber mallet for assembly.Very pleased so I purchased a second one…. And it was just like the 1st

The frame is a "5" but I'm giving it 4 stars because the MDF shelves are garbage
I purchased this to make a cat tower for my screened in patio. The metal frame is easily assembled with a rubber mallet and the frame is quite sturdy and looks much nicer than what you'd find at a big box store. I cut up some Ikea wooden bed slats that I had on hand and used them as the bottom shelf. Unlike the cheeze-ball MDF shelves that come with the unit, the bed slats are easily able to hold the heavy bins of tile I used to weigh the unit down and prevent those fat cat asses from toppling the whole thing over. The MDF shelves as I said are garbage - barely 3/8" thick and warp easily. To build the landings at each level I cut each shelf in half and alternated the half shelves so the cats could climb to the top. The remaining halves I stored with my plywood stash. After a few months, I noticed the shelves on the patio were getting really moldy - not surprising with Florida's humidity. But when I pulled out the halves that I'd put away - they too were covered in mold. Yuck! I just chucked the MDF that came with the shelves and cut new landing shelves from my scrap plywood. All in all the shelving frame is great but plan on replacing the original MDF shelves with something that can support some amount of weight and not turn into a petri dish.

VERY easy product to assemble. Very sturdy.
All you need is a rubber mallet and you are set. Nothing else to assembly. Just make sure you have the correct parts in order. These units are incredibly durable.

DO NOT REMOVE MIDDLE SHELF! THE TOP HALF FELL ON ME!
The way this shelving unit is designed, the vertical support bars are split into top and bottom halves. To hold top to the bottom, a shelf HAS to be placed where it connects top to bottom. If you have the whole set up, say, for a long time (I did) and you decide to move the middle shelf (I did) when you try to remove the middle shelf brackets, the top half will fall on you!!!! This is what happened to me. It did not occur to me that the shelf was serving as a support, since that's not what any other shelving unit I own have. Removing shelves on other shelving units does not affect the integrity of the whole structure. So I removed all of the items on the shelf, then the plywood shelf insert, and I began removing the shelf support brackets/bars. Upon removing one of the larger ones, the top half of the shelving unit (with photo boxes and 3 baskets of fabric) all fell on top of me with a huuuge crash. Why is an unmarked shelf a major part of the support?? The middle shelf has no different paint or stickers or other marker to tell you to not remove it! And why didn't the maker just provide brackets with the unit that would allow me to move shelves??? I quit for the day after that. This was the pits. Luckily, somehow, no metal or other object seriously injured me. About 20-25 lbs of stuff fell.

Muy buen anaquel
Es un anaquel facil de armar, tiene buen soporte para resistir cosas pesadas, es espacioso, sin embargo el precio podría ser un poco más barato

Great quality at this price
I can’t believe the quality of these shelves at such a good price. I had a load of heavy boxes to store in the garage and wanted a single set of shelves to hold them. I’d been looking at shelves for three times this price but in the end decided to take a chance on these. I’m glad I did because they were simple to put together and really solid. I would highly recommend them.

Price Gouged?
I really like the shelves, easy to set up, sturdy and look good. Delivery was a nightmare had to wait over 4 weeks ... despite being “in stock” and expedited! This week there is a significant price reduction. Happy with shelves just a bitter taste on price hike.

Great buy for any storage solution
I've got other quick up storage racks but these were by far one of the best I've seen so far. Loved the price and the quality. We have these in a cupboard at our clubhouse, they fit the space well and did exactly what was needed, took me on my own about 45 mins to assemble each one, definitely you will need a mallet - trust me, you may think you won't but you will, not only will it make things easier but it will speed everything up for you. The material for the shelves seems very thin and light weight but I can assure you that it is plenty strong enough.

Good sturdy shelves
These are great, good size and good value for money. You need a use a rubber mallet to really thump the parts into place but other than that there’s not screws or fixings which I’m glad of.
