Review on Bamboo 6 Tier Rolling Plant Stand - Stylish Indoor/Outdoor Planter Display Rack For Your Patio Or Living Room by Firman Harrington

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Doesn't roll well; shelves can become unlevel if you pull the shelf incorrectly.

It really is a pretty good plant shelf except for a couple of things. My main issue is that the wheels, for whatever reason, don't roll very well at all. Usually 1 or 2 of the wheels don't turn when they need to as you're trying to roll the shelf, so they get stuck sideways and just drag across the floor unless you manually bend down and turn them. Even then, if all 4 wheels on are on the floor, this will happen again and again so I have to lift it up on one end so that there are only 2 wheels touching the floor and I can roll it ok, so long as I do it carefully. But this is still not good. I bought this specifically so that I could roll my plants out to the south-facing window in the day and roll them back into a warmer room in the evening, so this really doesn't work for me. The other thing is that, even though I tightened all the screws, the way all the pieces are put together -- if you're not being vigilant and grab one of the shelves—like when you have to roll the cart into a room, you have nowhere to really grab so you have to grab one of the shelves, albeit on the side and as gingerly as possibly—you can accidentally pull it and tilt the shelf, and because all the pieces are connected, you not only tilt one shelf you tilt everything else. When this happens, it's not super severe and nothing for me has fallen off the shelf yet, but it's a little alarming at first because if you have any smaller plant pots on it, they could fall off or tip over. So I have to be careful when I'm trying to roll this shelf anywhere else in the house. I'm not sure if I got a defective set of wheels, or maybe the weight distribution is off but it doesn't roll well even when there are NO plants or objects on the shelf. Otherwise, it's actually an alright, good-looking shelf and I like that there's bamboo slats because this helps with ventilation for the bottom of the plant pots, which tend to stay moist when you normally put them on a table or solid surface. I JUST WISH IT ROLLED LIKE A NORMAL CART. PS - There are also no instructions for how to properly put the wheels on. Luckily, it's easy to just look on ebay at the picture and find out, but it's not necessarily that straightforward - I initially put the wheels on wrong before looking at the image and redoing them.
