Alot of assembly

Very sturdy, keeps wood from direct contact with porch.

UPDATE: The seller contacted me and offered me a replacement or a full refund. I requested a refund and received it. Much appreciated! Upgrading my star rating due to this customer service.Bottom line up front, terrible first impression and I almost sent it back immediately, but decided to keep it despite its flaws after further inspection. The manufacturing of the metal surfaces is the worst I’ve ever received for a product. As you can see in the pics, I found paint chips with rust starting (inside the individual plastic packaging bags), erroneous creases in the metal, bubbles under the paint, etc. Out of 6 long metal sections, only 1 was flawless, 2 of 4 short sections also. I know I will be sanding/repainting this rack at some point and that’s why I almost sent it back immediately. HOWEVER, I did take into account that this is an outdoor wood rack and that what was most important isn’t the cosmetics, since those will inherently get worse with use anyway, but rather the strength, integrity and functionality of the rack. (I’m covering my rack.) So I looked at the metal welding work and I found it to be very clean and thorough. All metal parts, holes and screws were straight. The screw holes for the feet were well aligned and the feet themselves seem to be of commercial use quality; outstanding! The ability to level the rack on uneven surfaces with heavy duty feet is a huge benefit not all racks have. Feet also include a second nut to tighten against the bottom of the rack once the feet are in their final position. The rack also has thick orange angle braces on each corner to sure up the rack for the heavy weight it must endure, eliminating the need for some sort of top bracing to keep the sides vertical with weight. I also considered the price versus the quality and found it to be compatible ($80). The written directions were not the best but if you can understand a drawing diagram of directions, have some reasoning skills and some patience, it’s not rocket science. Easiest thing to mess up is the screwing of the supports through the short side of the metal, not the longer side as you may expect. Also metal washer positions change from one screw to the next based on the surface it is against but made sense to me. The metal is reasonably strong but it will start to flex inward if you over-tighten. All in all I think it is a good rack for the money and I expect to get many years out of it with some occasional cosmetic cleanup.

Update:I have bought a few more, without the rust issue and after a full season they are still looking great and show no signs of collapse. I do have a cover for most winter weather but otherwise quite happy with them bumping up a star as the best firewood rack,especially if you need leveling feet.They have also made some fantastic product improvements since last year. The paint job is a much higher quality powder coat finish and everything was exceptionally well packaged and looked perfect. I have over a dozen different firewood racks and now own 5 of these.The economics are also better, this unit being sub $150 plus a high quality cover like B0D7H5GQJS for sub $200 vs the only competitor I would consider at this point being $300+.Below was my original review for the initial two units I had: One came with heavy rust on multiple components despite being sealed in bags. Customer service did reach out about this issue to get it resolved promptly which I think shows a high level of integrity and noted they hope to resolve this issue at the factory.If you want a wood rack that can actually hold 8' by 4+' of wood (especially if your wood is a decent bit bigger than 12" long) you need a heavy duty rack. Amazon is flooded with "heavy duty" racks and most are a joke. I have 8 firewood racks now and have tried a few brands.To determine how heavy duty a firewood rack is, just look at the weight. The name brand leader 46 lbs. This rack 41lbs. Most racks on amazon on a comical 20ish pounds. Yes there are other factors, but honestly this is the only 8' firewood rack I found over 35 lbs (other than the name brand) and I looks through probably 100+ on amazon.There is the "name brand" rack that is just over $200 for an 8' rack so this at $125 is a much better deal, except that one also includes a cover. Looking at a high quality cover you are in another $50-60. so at $185 would I pay the extra $40 for the name brand? Yeah, almost always.There is one exception, and that is for unlevel ground. I saw the leveling legs on this and thought they were a gimmick seems like a bad idea for a log rack. I was surprised though they seem heavy duty enough to hold the rack. I have a good bit of land, and leveling areas for wood racks can be annoying, especially if in a hurry. You don't want your log rack to tip over, especially with the wind. Now only the 4 outside posts have leveling ability, the middle does not. This means your middle needs to be your high point (or close to it) but then you can raise the legs to get it to level. NOTE: There are two washers on the legs, they are not double locking (ie two next to each other to stop each from moving). This means the top one locks the height and the bottom one is keeping the foot properly on.I am quite certain this rack is not going to bend or break from the weight. My one concern would be the two middle posts (made up of 4 pieces) that might slowly do the splits, I think adding a nut + bolt to the bottom of each would have been a good idea to stop this (for me though I can add this without much issue).The paint is suspect, as some others mentioned, again for $40 difference I would go name brand for that reason alone.The instructions are very bad. It might as well have just been one picture and said watch out for where the washers go;)The washers don't go like their photos on amazon and do pay attention as there are no extras and sometimes they go on one side, sometimes the other, sometimes neither. Honestly they should just includes enough washers for all the bolts to make it easier.There are also, a lot of bolts. I would certainly use an electric screwdriver if you have one. Make sure your clutch is properly set so you don't overtighten.There are no extra bolts,nuts,or washers not a problem mine was complete but if you end up missing just one piece you will have to wait for the replacement.Note as well everything is in its own plastic bag which is an annoying amount of packing material.So are there issues? Sure. But it seems second best and while I would probably go name brand for 70% of my future racks I have two more of these in my cart now for some temporary setup location that I will just tarp.

This rack is sturdy and works well for storing firewood. Looks good, too.

Easy to assemble and super sturdy. Looks great.

Have NEVER seen a product that was pkg'd so well! Every piece carefully wrapped in padded paper, taped up. Very nice.The rack is made VERY well, easy to put together. I bought 2 4' racks to take up space I had avail on my patio, in between my homebuilt facecord racks.Have had a square tubing metal rack outside in all the elements for over 25 yrs, still great but I could not remember who made it. When I saw these racks were square tubing... had to get em. I have them full of fresh cut, heavy red oak and rack is solid. I like them. Will buy more.

I have purchased thousands of items from Amazon over the years since Amazon's beginning. I had an issue with this purchase that Amazon could not solve with their system so I contacted the vendor directly. (There are not other companies with this name). The vendor solved the issue immediately, followed up later to make sure everything was ok, and made sure I was completely satisfied with how they handled the situation. I love the product quality, its appearance, and its utility. It is well constructed, easy to assemble, and I can finally store my firewood on my deck instead of inside the house piled up on the hearth. But I simply must emphasis that Efurden provided me with the best direct contact customer service I have ever experienced. Thank you Efurden for being a 5 star company.
