Review on 🛠️ Rubbermaid 3-Foot White Linen Closet Shelf Kit: Wire Shelving System for Laundry Rooms, Linen Closets, or Basements by James Maruffo

I would like to give 4.5 stars here, but only because the fasteners could be a bit stronger in their holding power. Like other wire shelves from other manufacturers, it mounts similarly using drywall anchors, which are easy to install but don't offer much holding power. I found this out when the shelf fell over due to overloading a few days ago, which I don't think would pose a problem. Having a lot of experience with this type of shelving, I blame myself more than the design. Tips: 1) Install the strut supports in line with the wall stud for more strength. 2) Remove the drywall liner with a box cutter. at least 2 of the supplied wall mount brackets and use either a snap bolt or, better yet, a #6 2" wood screw or something (DO NOT USE A GYPSUMBOX SCREW that isn't strong enough) screwed into the rack. The anchoring to the wall supplied with the shelf is primarily for the horizontal stability of the shelf, I would recommend using a drop-in anchor only between snap-bolt or screw anchors, so don't rely solely on drive-in anchors, be it because, you know for sure your shelf will never withstand more than 10#. 4) If you need to trim the shelf, use bolt cutters. It's relatively quick and easy compared to a hacksaw or even a saber saw. That said, I'm still a fan of wire shelving. They are inexpensive, easy to install and long lasting when installed correctly.
