Review on ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Handmade Set of 2 Rustic Wood Floating Shelves with L Brackets - Imperative Dรฉcor Wall Mounted Storage Shelf (24" x 5.5") - Special Walnut finish, Made in the USA by Peggy Snow

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Terrible experience with floating shelves

The brackets are strong but the wood is cheap junk with a mediocre stain. Drywall anchors are awful (they're not the ones in the photo). The assembly instructions say "Use a Phillips screwdriver to simply screw the anchors into the drywall" - ha! I drilled a good sized pilot hole and they still went bare into the wall and no I didn't go through the stud. When I finally got one in (and after destroying two of them) I checked the dowel with a screw, resulting in the dowel being fully drilled and screwed deep into the drywall, but the screw still isn't fully seated dowel. ! I pulled the screw and anchor out as one with a 3/4" hole in the drywall. Did a second try with the same result but then found the screws were too long for the drywall anchors. Do yourself do a favor and buy some good brackets then go to home depot and buy lumber cut and paint yourself and use your own logic when buying drywall anchors it was a horrible experience I can't believe that they charge $60 for it The product is poor quality, now I have to patch/paint holes in the drywall and can't install exactly where I want, I really want to throw it in the trash

Pros
  • Annual test
Cons
  • I'm concerned
