Review on 2X4Basics 90124 ShelfLinks Custom Storage by Stacie Bird

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The simplicity of the design and the time savings make this a worthwhile purchase.

These shelf connectors allowed us to transform a small storage closet into a much more useful space and they were quick to put together. The project only lasted a few hours, which is mainly due to the fact that the assembly took place in a very confined space. I bought two of these kits to build floor to ceiling storage in this narrow closet we have because I didn't feel the 2x4s would be strong enough to span almost 8 feet without additional wear support in the middle. After learning from another reviewer who forgot to install the side screws, I attached each 2x4 using every hole I could find and the installation seems secure. Since this was a floor-to-ceiling vault, I secured it to the wall with a few bolts to ensure it wouldn't tip over on me or another family member. Instead of just stacking crates and storage boxes to 5, we now actually have a closet to use and organize. I wanted to find a reason to bitch about this product and I know that over time I could definitely build something very similar using just 2x4s, but in the end the simplicity of the design and the time savings were worth it. buy and I'm glad I bought it.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than others
