Review on BLACK LANGRIA 5 Tier Wire Shelving Unit For Supreme Storage Organization And Display by Anil Campbell

Revainrating 3 out of 5

OKAY but here's more to watch out for

OKAY but with some limitations. If you read the negative reviews, you will find a few of them. It is not a sturdy, solid shelving unit, it is lightweight overall. One defect, of several, is that the adjusting screws (that's what they are!) on the bottom of each leg turn into small feet for the entire shelf, rendering it unstable. Bad design. I put the screw heads (hex heads) in a hole drilled in a piece of wood that adds some stability; I also put the shelf unit in a place where it's not going to fall over easily (my shed). Assembly instructions were revised but not as good as other units of this type (I've put together many others).So you have to be careful to set the plastic sleeves in the notches on the upright posts (count notches on each post to ensure the shelf will be level when you slide it down). Yes, my sleeves fit together as they should, and stayed in place, mostly. Be aware, as previously stated, that the shelves fit one way-with the wire lip edge UPRIGHT, so the shelf is not flush; harder to slide larger items on and off. As you slide the shelf down the post to the plastic sleeves. hold it in the middle so it doesn't go on crooked. If you aren't careful on this step, the sleeves can separate (and fall off) but also not allow the shelf to set level. I just tapped the edges down a little with a rubber mallet and they tightened around the sleeves just fine. I might have spent a half hour putting it together, but carefully placing the shelves in place. I also spaced the bottom shelf higher and put my shop vac on the floor under the 1st shelf and my carpet vac on the 2nd shelf, also spaced higher. So far, there is no affect on stability of the unit; the vac on the 2nd shelf helps to anchor it, I'm sure. Again, the screw-head adjusters are too small to be used as feet to handle any tipping or out-of-balance situation. The adjusters need to be replaced with larger diameter threaded inserts. This unit works for lighter-duty than similar units on the market.
