Review on Collapsible Shelf Brackets - Heavy Duty Metal Folding Bracket For Wall Mounted Bench, Table, Or Shelf, Space Saving Hinge Design, 2 Pack, Maximum Load Capacity Of 150 Pounds (14 Inch, Black) by Jonathan Arroyo

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Get a long drill bit, or an assistant or a 3rd arm

I turned my barely walk-in closet into my study sanctuary and these folding shelf racks really came in handy especially to make multiple desks.Following the purchase of the first pair of 16in rack, and needing 2 more pairs. I wasn’t quiet willing to dish out around 20 a pop ( $60 in total), so ended up finding more affordable pairsSo my review of these folding racks stem from experiencing the other pairs which had a spring system, rather than slid-n-lock .PRO::*Slide-n-lock gives (me at least) peace of mind that the desk will fold/unfold over long term use w/out springs loosing tension/ getting disconnected etc. [no issues with spring racks yet but springs.]* holds a lot, and I mean I have thick medical text books laptop coffee mug and a pound of stationary and these racks handle it with ease*slim design makes it easy to hide underneath desk. (My other pairs are visibly wider)CONS:1) ** PAIN IN THE A**** to install! connecting rack to wall / desk was easy until you get to the top holes . where a drill is near impossible to get into unless u have ::a) someone with you to slightly lower the hinge so u can finangle the drill into a yoga position (dropped the screws so many times we had to take a break), risk leveling being off.b) have an attachable long drill bit ( I didn’t have one) to reach it.C) have a third armThe spring racks could be moved to the side it was a relief after dealing with these hinges.2. Overpriced: decent quality sure , but not for $20+ & not for the godawful hassle of putting them up. Especially when there are more affordable options if u search.
