Amazon Basics5-Shelf Storage Unit With Height Adjustable Shelves and Levelling Feet, 795 kg Max Weight, Black, 35.6 D x 91.4 W x 182.9 H cm

The media could not be loaded. Amazing use of space and very functional for a small room as I’m able to fit so much and tailor it to my needs. Looks great as I compared getting this or the one from Ikea and decided on an Amazon purchase instead. Very stable and not flimsy so far and it’s been over a year since purchased. Very easy to assemble.

I recently picked up the Amazon Basics 4-Shelf Storage Unit, and it's been a really solid addition to my home office. The chrome finish gives it a nice, sleek look, which fits in well with my setup, but the real highlight is how functional it is.What sold me on it was how adjustable the shelves are. I appreciate being able to customize the height based on what I need to store. Whether it’s books, bins, or some craft supplies, I can arrange everything without issues. The maximum weight capacity is impressive too. I didn’t test it by loading it up to 640kg, but it definitely feels sturdy, giving me confidence that it can hold whatever I decide to stack on it.It’s also nice that it has leveling feet because my flooring isn't all that even. This little feature really helped keep everything stable, so I’m not worried about it tipping over.Overall, I’m pleased with this storage unit. It’s reliable, easy to put together, and has just enough style without being flashy. If you need some extra storage space, I’d say it’s definitely worth considering.

Better than expected. The parts feel sturdy. The locking mechanism is quite well thought out. If is relatively easy to build and adjust, so much better than the thin metal shelves with pre-mouldy 4mm mdf shelves I purchased last time and tgat cut me in many places. This one is easy and no sharp edges and can be used without fear of loading too much of you add a few kg/lbs. And it even looks nice. Comes with spare set of plastic locks that hold the shelves.

Ill start with the bad point... mine came a tiny bit damaged. One of the eyelets that you feed the legs through was a tiny bit warped so the bottom shelf doesnt quite sit flush, as one of the legs cant quite push through as much as the others, making that corner marginally raised compared to the other 3. Whilst this really annoyed me at first, after a little brute force to jam it in as far as possible i continued to put the rest of it together to see how bad it would be. In the end, its not actually that bad as i made this the bottom shelf which is for heavier items. In terms of putting it together, yes the instructions are poor, but its so simple to work out that this shouldnt be an issue. It is quite basic, but once put together it all locks in quite tight and ends up a sturdy little set of shelves. Whilst trying to get the bottom shelf to sit flat, i actually stood on the bottom shelf and jumped a little to try to force it. Im 6ft1 and 185lbs and that one little shelf took my weight with relative ease? Im not sure i would advise this kind of abuse, but it demonstrates just how sturdy this actually is! I have a space between my fridge and the end cupboard that was about perfect for this and it has given me a very handy additional storage rack. Adjustable feet mean you can easily level it to your floor for stability and its made from a seemingly tough metal with a clean black finish. For the price paid, you cant go wrong with this, would recommend for sure.

I really like this shelving unit and the quality is comparable to the price. This was easy to assemble; however, I would recommend having 2 people to assist each other. I used this for extra shelving in shed and it held all of my garden gear. It feels solid for my items. I don't know if this could handle very heavy items. Overall, I'm happy with this purchase.

Positives with this style of shelf:Easy to moveLightweight but still strongAdjustable shelves (1" increments)Quick and easy to assemble without toolsLevelling feet included as well as castors (feet hold more weight)Black ones plastic coated, so suitable for damp environmentsPositives with these shelves:Shelves have 15 wires, so stronger than those with only 10Large 6 cm castorsNegatives:The top shelf does not sit right at top of pole, but about 1 cm below (on chrome model)Castors are not replaceable (use 5 mm bolts, not available to buy)Not modularNo spare parts availableI now have 4 of these shelves in different sizes and by different brands, all similar prices. They are very useful, especially being able to move them. Quick and easy to assemble without tools (30 mins tops), shelves are adjustable in 1” increments, and they’re lightweight for moving around/moving house, but still strong. This one measures 59 x 34 x 82 cm, including the poles sticking up above top shelf. Don’t like that: didn’t notice that with the chrome one, the top shelf does not sit right at the top of the poles, but about 1 cm below (doesn't look to be the case with black one). This isn't a problem if you don't want to put anything larger than the shelf on the top, but my plant trays are slightly larger..On the plus side, the shelves have 15 wires, whereas some only have 10, which makes these more stable and stronger.Mainly, the weight restrictions are due to the castors, in my view. On levelling feet, I can’t see these shelves breaking under even heavy loads. The castors are larger than on some others, 6 cm diameter. But the fastening bolts are still 5 mm diameter – too small to use standard castors as replacement, which is very annoying and a failing with most of these cheaper shelves. You can’t buy castors with anything smaller than 8 mm bolts anywhere, as far as I can see. Once a castor breaks, you can only use the feet, or replace the whole shelf (as I had to do with my previous one).I use these for plants/seed trays, and saw a few enquiries about wet/damp environments: outdoors/greenhouse/balcony/for plants etc. After buying, I realised that the black version is far more suitable for this, as plastic coated, so far less likely to rust. My chrome shelves are starting to rust in places – can be removed with elbow grease and WD40, but is work intensive. My black shelves, however, have not rusted at all . Would say the black ones are suitable for using in greenhouse/for plants/on covered balcony etc, but think outdoors they would probably still rust (at least eventually).At the moment these are not modular (or very adaptable - you can leave out one shelf with these 3 tiered ones), but easily could be: the plastic caps that sit at the top of the poles can be unscrewed on one of my other shelves (but not on these), and if the same size as the screw fitting between the pole sections (and for the bolts for feet/castors), these could be modular. Ideally, they’d also sell spare parts/extra shelves etc, but even without that, you’d have the option of combining multiple shelves of different heights, or splitting one large shelf maybe.You get one set of spare clips with these, btw, as with most of these shelves and I don’t think you can buy any other spares or extra shelves. But for this price, you can't really expect too much - even for double the price, you only get replaceable castors. If you want to be able to add shelves or other extras, or modify it, you've got to pay a lot more..Overall, this is good quality for the money, and apart from the position of the top shelf, would be happy with it.

So simple to build & so sturdy! Really happy with these shelves and the fact I got them during the spring sale is even better 😎
