Review on YOHKOH 5-Wire Shelving Metal Storage Rack: Adjustable ๐Ÿ—„๏ธ Shelves for Laundry, Bathroom, Kitchen Pantry, and Closet (Black) by Kristi Washington

Revainrating 1 out of 5

My FIFTH high shelf, but a REAL FAILURE!

NOTE: When assembling this style of shelving, ensure that the two plastic clips snap into the groove with the TOP in the correct position and fit snugly together with no gap between them . Also start with all four legs flat on the floor and mark a groove BELOW where you want to place the shelves with a piece of tape on all four legs. Then take off the bottom legs until you have the first TWO shelves. Attach the following sections as you go upstairs. BELIEVE ME. I'm a 68 year old woman who assembled all my shelves and others (for friends) and single handedly took them down to 18 x 48 x 72"! Now on to this product. It got worse as the day progressed. See end comment. If you plan to also use it for the occasional knick knack or folded towels/clothes GOOD Even if the shelves are rated at ยฃ100 each.. Not desirable for me Having assembled so many others I just have the instructions memorized looked at and lowered the rim, slid down) and tapped it on all sides with a rubber mallet but the shelves barely slid down. Should have held up to 100 pounds. When I finally had everything assembled I placed the lamp on a shelf and despite the super thin flimsy milky plastic liner ruining the simplicity of the unit's black color, the lamp tilted and I could see the wire underneath.Every time I moved the lamp to adjust the swing arm. I bought it because it's the perfect size for me. BUT IT'S A PIECE OF SHIT. Oh don't get me wrong, for simple stuff this could be the perfect thing. However, don't expect it to withstand repeated use or put up with anything massive. However, cute beanies come to mind. Now that I've checked the ad again, I think it's probably not wrong (for the most part), but definitely misleading. Although I realized that I had never seen this brand before, I bought it anyway. Bad decision on my part. Now I'm going to return this one and take a little more (sigh) that I can trust. I'm afraid to take it apart. See all the other shelves I had are screwed together. They are held on by pressure and are much thinner than even other short shelves I have. Yes, I have many of these things in my house, including a handy meat counter, but when I encountered limited space, I became a "small area, lots of storage and display space," kind of girl. .The announcement is NOT true. The shelves are listed as 12 x 18 inches but have external dimensions of 11.5 x 16.5. That means the bearing clearance is about 1 inch smaller. And I almost bought flat wicker bread baskets to put my things in. You would be too big! Now I'm really angry. Forgive me for yelling curses at my cat. I'm Mariposa which means butterfly in Spanish. GMBH. I'll add a few select Spanish words while I'm at it, as well as a few Dutch swear words. PROBLEM! When I contacted Revain for a refund and told a member of staff that I couldn't open my crushed legs, he suggested I buy a larger box. I informed him that the legs were 48 inches tall, about my shoulder. After I was suspended I was told I would receive a non-refundable refund. I can keep the goods, sell them or give them away. the perfect place for him in my old skyscraper. Jigsaw puzzlers liked to take it with them to keep their jigsaw puzzles in boxes. good size And the boxes are the perfect weight for this device. So do a good analysis of what you need this product for and whether a more expensive, stronger block would be a better choice.

Pros
  • High test scores for grip and durability
Cons
  • Not as thick as others
