Review on Decorate Your Home With AHDECOR'S Stylish Black Floating Wall Shelves - Set Of 3 Wide Panel Ledge Shelves For Various Rooms! by Donna Hoff

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Decent quality, cheap floating shelves that aren't too difficult to install

Looking to free some desk space for storage, I started looking at some floating shelves and came across these. I ended up buying them primarily because they were available for same-day delivery and had decent reviews.Immediately after unpacking, I noticed that one of the three shelves had a very small dent in one of the corners. Not a huge deal to me as, by chance, that corner ended up facing away from me and isn't all that visible, but this is definitely something to check for before you hand them. Included in the package were three shelves and the necessary mounting hardware. Directions were included but crumpled around the baggie with the hardware. For anyone familiar with using dry wall screws, though, directions really aren't necessary.Mounting the shelves took about 15 minutes with a power drill. Be sure to use a level and measure the distance between the mounts on the shelves carefully for a good look. My only real complaint is that getting the shelves perfectly straight and truly hanging is extremely difficult. It can be done but requires lots of trying a screw depth, mounting the shelf, and seeing how it looks. "Close enough" was good enough for me, but again, this might be a bit of a deal-breaker if you're wanting a professional look; it'll probably take some time figure out how to get the shelves perfectly flush with the wall.These definitely can't hold all that much weight and are pretty small, but for small items they'll work well (think small office supplies, a relatively small picture frame, etc. - I wouldn't want to put a ream of paper on one, for example). They aren't all that deep, so you'll be limited in what items you can place on them anyway.Altogether, $30 for three fairly easy to install, not-bad-quality hanging shelves isn't a bad deal to me, and for my use case I'm happy with them.
