These shelves seem alarmingly flimsy for something rated to hold 800 pounds. The bottom line is that these are fine for lightly used storage shelves, and definitely a step up from similar sized plastic units. The thinness of the metal raises strength concerns and makes adjusting the shelves difficult.Once assembled, they feel like Ikea furniture, where everything is fine as long as you don't move the unit or shake it too much. Another con of the flimsiness is that assembly was complicated by having to use the provided nuts and bolts to fasten everything together. This would make readjusting the shelves a total pain. I have sets of similar shelves rated to the same strength that use much heavier gauge metal, so everything locks together without the need for fasteners.The pro of the flimsiness was that I was able to fix one of the uprights, which arrived twisted out of shape, with a pair of slip joint pliers. None of the spot welds seemed to have been broken, so I elected to use the damaged unit rather than deal with a return.

Using this in my shop to get things organized. Very sturdy unit with deep shelves for totes and large items. I put it together by myself in about a hour. I would recommend this shelving.

Only a couple of minor issues with this shelving. The cross members on the top rail didn't quite line up. Will modify with a hammer. They are a tad bit short. Probably due slight warpage on the rail they fit into.One of the wire mesh shelves was bent a bit. Again, nothing a hammer can't fix. Went together very easy. I am 70 years old and had no problems other than the ones mentioned in this review. Took me 20 minutes to unbox and assemble. I recommend this shelving product!

These shelves are better than any that I have ever gotten at The Home Depot! In comparison, they are more rigid and are specified to support more weight. Of particular interest is the Home Depot shelving uses thin particle board horizontal shelf material which sags over time and is affected by humidity (even supporting mold growth). These Ironton shelves, on the other hand, use welded galvanized steel mesh. These shelves will last much longer in out-buildings with no climate control.I wanted a set that I could move around so I welded up "dollies" to go under the supports at both ends (see photos). These worked out great! Using large diameter rubber castors that I found on Amazon.com allows the shelves to be moved silently and smoothly with a single hand.

These are ok. They assemble quickly with one person. The center braces fit horrible in the side rails. Braces should be taller or it should have come with spacers to take up the extra space.. If you just tighten them down, it distorts the side rails. 2 thousand pound capacity per shelf is a joke. Maybe if you line each shelf with plywood, but even then, these things are not pallet racks! If you need to store crank shafts and cylinder heads on these, they are nowhere near heavy duty enough. Fortunately I only got them to tidy up the shop, store car parts on, etc. that being said, if you don't need to hold a whole lot of weight, they will be good for your needs. Another note, I bought 4 units... Because I butted up two of the pairs with shared side braces, I ended up with an extra entire shelf assembly. So in other words I got 5 shelf units for the price of four.

Purchased a shelf before arrived with a banged up box but, the shelf was great and was super easy to put together by myself. So I ordered 2 more. Both arrived in actually not damaged boxes and Both units were damaged so bad I couldn't even make one shelf out of the 2 boxes...dissapointed at least I was able to return them. Just wanted replacements but, will go with a different brand.
