Review on ๐Ÿชต BAOBAB WORKSHOP Wood Floating Shelves Set: Rustic 24-inch Walnut Wall Shelves for Living Room, Bedroom, Kitchen, Bathroom - Made in Europe by Lisa Stephens

Shelves tip down with no load :(

Huge disappointment! I was so excited to get my hands on these shelves as the finishing touch to our bathroom renovation. The wood looks nice but the shelves tip over with no content down . :'(Assembly: Assembly was a problem for us as the bracket holes are spaced differently on each shelf; in hindsight we should have measured each one individually but it seems odd that they would be unevenly spaced. We did those Brackets installed into the drywall using the supplied anchors as directed.We slid the shelves onto the brackets and they immediately tipped down with no load!Adjusting the tilt screw did little to no good.Because we just had huge holes in our freshly painted wall we couldn't get them back and now we need big wall mounts for ours "floating" shelves. It's not worth the money if we have to buy additional mounts. Regal: The tree itself is beautiful. It's a great color: N not too reddish, not too yellowish. I liked that they have a rough "rustic" side and a smooth side. The only downside to the wood was that the stain on one of the shelves was uneven and was evident in the rustic top position (see photo). I also liked that they are deeper than most bathroom shelves. They were packed very well and it looks like a good company. As we followed the instructions I am confused and disappointed that the brackets cannot hold the shelf horizontally.
