Review on πŸ“š Knape & Vogt KT-0134-1212SN Decorative Corner Glass Shelf Kit - 12 inch L x 12 inch W by Michelle Ramanath

A solid, attractive shelf when installed correctly

A solid, attractive shower shelf when installed correctly. You need a special drill bit for drilling ceramic tile, about $10. Take your time, measure very accurately, especially the top and bottom screw holes for each bracket. This will ensure the bracket is perpendicular to the floor for a level shelf. However, if that shelf gets splashed with shower water (most) you'll want the shelf to be tilted slightly away from the wall to drain the water. I installed 4 of these shelves and found that with one side perfectly flat and the other brace VERY slightly lowered, the shelf drains well. When you do this nothing will fall off the shelf, it's a very small angle. Since the shelf has rubberized covers on the brackets, there is a SMALL height difference between the two brackets when tightening. Hand tighten it slowly! Even if it's installed properly, I don't want to stand a 2lb shower bottle with a pump on it and pump out. The shelf holds the weight with no problem, easily 10 pounds, but inflate every day? I'm not sure if this will slowly loosen the screws over time. This glass is sure to break, so you're safe if the worst happens!

Pros
