Great shelves for the price!

I ordered two of these and I love them. I have a word of caution and should read the reviews on this product before ordering so there are no surprises. I read them, went to the hardware store and bought the right drywall anchors. So I had no problem fitting the shelves and not worrying about them sliding off the wall. In addition, the shelves look great and are relatively easy to assemble. Some assembly tips: 1-The aluminum brackets connecting the top and bottom shelves have chamfered holes on the side of the wall. It matters which end of the bracket on the bottom shelf is used. The chamfer should be the top hole of the bottom two holes on this shelf. 2- The wall anchors you buy should have flat heads in the shape of glass beads like the ones included in the kit. The anchors I bought had the wrong heads, but the hardware store had plenty of matching machine screws. You will need a screw head of this shape so that the glass shelves fit snugly into the back of the shelf brackets. 3-brass screws for glass shelves have a rubber insert at the end. One of the side dishes fell into the packaging. DO NOT install the screw without these inserts as you do not need a metal to glass bond. 4-When driving these screws in, use your punch to press the glass top against the top of the shelf bracket and stop turning the screw when the rubber insert makes firm contact with the glass. 5- To make holes for the anchors I used an awl instead of a drill. If I happened to hit a wooden beam, I simply used a #6 stone screw. If I missed a joist, I would just wiggle the awl into the hole in the wall until I found the perfect spot for the anchor. In this way, your bathroom becomes dust-free and cleaning is not necessary.

Pros
