Review on Large White Sorbus Floating Shelf 24 x 9 - Wall Hanging Shelves Decoration for Trophy Display and Photo Frames - Extra Long 24 Inch by Kim Bell

At 48.99 for 2 shelves this was the best price I found online for floating shelves of this size but if IKEA was open I would go there. These shelves are not made of wood. Although the material of the shelves is nice, it almost feels like paper. That's the kind of stuff that peels off after a few months, which is a bit sad. So do not buy them and do not put them in a humid room as they will peel off. For now, however, they look great and serve their purpose. Don't put too much weight on the shelves. I could probably put some books on the shelves, I would be afraid to put a heavy flower pot or something. To be honest I'm not sure if floating shelves are meant for heavy items as they just support the wall. I wish we had been told I would cut TWENTY holes in the track to install it. You need to be very careful during installation as the shelves may not be secured to the wall with just the included anchors. Also, the anchors that were provided to me buckled every time we tried to drive them down the hole. Not sure if it's because they were cheap anchors or not. Aside from the cheap yellow anchors, the rest of the gear is very durable. Good mount and good screws. I was lucky enough to have at least one shelf on my wall, so my shelves have a bit more support. You also need a level which is NOT included in the package. I used my level over the metal bracket before screwing it to the wall, otherwise you might screw the metal bracket to the wall and find the shelf isn't quite straight. I feel they should put an equalizer or instructions in the package for other people to use. Delivered quickly and without damage. The installation took about 1.5 hours, so give yourself at least 2 hours. The Lack shelves at IKEA are 43 x 10 inches and 19.99 inches, so I wish they were cheaper, mainly because of the material.
