I won't say anything negative about the construction. It's sturdy and solid! Value for money!
3 stars because the screws with the nuts come just as you see in the photo and it takes quite a while to unscrew them. Did the manufacturer sit and screw them in before putting them in the package? Why not put them separately?
For 17 euros, it's the best you can get. MAKE SURE TO WEAR WORK GLOVES. There are no instructions, but it's nothing special in terms of construction. The only time-consuming part is the already screwed screws (60) with their nuts. Which, with an electric screwdriver/drill, takes 5 minutes of work as one user mentioned above. It's a stable construction when completed, but I suggest it be screwed to the wall for added safety. I believe it can hold up to 15-20 kilos with proper distribution on each shelf. It's not suitable for a shelf for bags of concrete/plaster, etc., but for 17 euros, you can't expect anything more. I will definitely buy another one in the future.
One of the most difficult DIY constructions of this type in my opinion if done by one person. Not so much because you have to screw continuously but because the screws come with the nut already threaded. So you have to unscrew the 60 screws it has approximately to screw them into the construction.
Obviously, it cannot be compared to Dexion that we use for heavy loads. It is a very good and honest solution for organizing the warehouse. Of course, I don't expect it to carry the weight it claims, but for the use I want, it is ideal. There is a bit of hassle in the connection, but once you figure it out, it's 20 minutes of work.
A simple product that does what it was made for. It is a bit lightweight in construction; I would have preferred it to be a bit sturdier.. but okay, for this price you have to know what you're getting
First of all, the shelf is worth its money and more, so I would definitely buy it again.
I bought six of them, so I gained significant experience during the assembly. Initially, unfortunately, all the screws need to be unscrewed. With the trick in the photo, unscrewing all the screws from the package (64) takes 6 to 7 minutes, and in my opinion, it is the first thing one should do. Then, the shelves need to be detached from each other. I did it with pliers and gloves that I wore only for this purpose. Then, I assembled the vertical parts by connecting them with two screws, which I tightened as much as possible, not four because with my logic, the shelf fits in the other two. I marked the vertical parts every 40 centimeters inside and outside so that it would have a shelf at the top, just like in the second-to-last hole from the bottom. Then, I placed two vertical parts on a table, so that I wouldn't have to bend, and I started placing the shelves from top to bottom, connecting them with the vertical parts and screws without tightening them too much. I also placed the metal brackets on the top and bottom shelves without tightening the screws too much. I placed the top shelf outside the vertical parts, while all the others inside (after all, they can't be placed differently). When I finished with all the shelves, I placed the other two vertical parts on top and starting from the middle shelves, I connected them together and in the end, I connected the top and bottom by placing the metal brackets. Then, I tightened all the screws using an electric screwdriver and a wrench for the counter (the hexagonal one doesn't fit). Finally, I added the plastic feet by hitting them with a hammer.
The construction is not stable unless you balance it by hitting the top shelf with your hand until all the feet touch the ground. It becomes very stable when screwed to the wall.
The first one out of the six was assembled on the floor in a closed space and it took me two hours, and I was at risk of having a stroke and heatstroke since I was unscrewing the screws one by one and bending over countless times. When I got into the spirit and followed the guide above, I managed to assemble the last one in about 45 minutes.
Good for its price. I got it for 18 euros. The metals are thin. Don't expect it to have the durability of a regular dexion. It is for lighter items. It wobbles a bit, but if you screw it to the wall it's fine. The package includes all the screws needed for assembly and some extras. It does not include instructions, but even from the photo on the box it is very easy to understand how to assemble it.
I have about 13-14 shelves like this and they all withstand a lot of weight. Lightweight construction that never bent or loosened. Convenient solution for storage
For the price of 16 euros and 3 for shipping, it is very good. We put it in the warehouse and it is quite sturdy even though we didn't fasten it to the wall. Okay, don't put any heavy objects on top. The heavier ones go down below and it's fine. While assembly is easy, it took us two hours, putting corners, straightening, screws to fit properly, plus some points are sharp like a razor and require caution. The corners seemed lacking to me, I wanted two more but I shared them and it seems to be fine. It stabilized correctly on the floor. I will order a second one. With such a price, you won't find anything better.
Good design and application. Binding with screws, complete packaging, when assembling use a level, and tighten the screws properly, not excessively, so as not to skew. It can hold the weight indicated, only if distributed on the entire shelf. Only the thin material reveals its cost. Value for money for its price. (refers to the 5-shelf one)
First of all, for its price, it's great. You don't easily trust that it can withstand 50 kilograms on each shelf or at least without leaning a bit. The assembly instructions are not very clear and I think the way I put it together, at least one screw is missing from the leg joint, I put four screws in three legs and three in one. For the use I got it for, to organize things in the storage room and save space, it's very good. But if you have heavy items to put on it, prefer a more sturdy construction.
Another shelf would be useful.. In 30 minutes I had set it up and by putting the heavy objects on the bottom shelves, everything looks perfect and the construction is one of the most sturdy I have ever bought... Perfect combination of price and quality....
Because I also have one with wooden shelves, I think it is a better choice for those who want to get a bookshelf and place it in a space without humidity. It is also more sturdy and easier to assemble.
I have bought about ten of these (the 5-shelf ones) and it seems like I will buy another ten. For this price (25-30 euros), I don't think there is anything comparable. It's not the best in terms of quality or stability, it requires a lot of time for assembly (over 30 minutes of screwing), I don't think it can withstand 50 kilograms per shelf as advertised, but it is by far the best value for money if you don't have specific requirements. Or if you need many simple and cheap dexion shelves.
Some tips:
1) It is good to assemble it with an electric screwdriver, it will save you a lot of time because it has dozens of screws (around 50 if I remember correctly). The packaging has the screws screwed into the corresponding holes, so it requires double work: first, we need to remove the screws one by one from the holes and then screw them onto the dexion. Even for the first process, I use an electric screwdriver.
2) Obviously, you also need a wrench (size 9 or 10 if I remember correctly) to hold the hole in place when tightening with the screwdriver.
3) Pay a lot of attention to the sides of the shelves. The bottom part on the side cuts a lot! Ideally, we should sand them a bit on an external surface before installation, to avoid problems during assembly and later on.
4) The instructions are not very helpful, the first 1-2 dexions will give you a hard time until you understand where/how to place the screws on the top and bottom shelf, as well as the corners (4 for the top shelf, 4 for the bottom). But after a few minutes, you will definitely get the hang of it.
5) It is preferable to assemble the dexion flat on a large table, first place the top shelf on the side, screw in the 4 legs, then put in the next 2 shelves, then extend the legs, and so on. It doesn't require much tightening, just enough for everything to be in place. Then you take it off the table and stand it upright on the floor and do the final tightening and adjustment there.
6) In previous packages, there were several extra screws, so in the middle of the dexion (where the legs are connected to each other), I would put in more screws than the instructions recommend for greater stability. Unfortunately, in the last pieces I bought, the screws were exactly enough (in fact, in one of them, more than 10 screws were completely rusted, so luckily I had extras from previous ones).
7) It is a good idea to have about 6-7 holes from the edge of the bottom shelf, so that you have enough space to clean underneath.
It requires a little effort to assemble, not that it's something complicated. It was screwed onto the wall with a screw and it doesn't move at all, it would be good if it's not in the air, especially if you load it with things. Durable, it gathered the chaos of the warehouse, excellent purchase.
Very good, easy to assemble. On its own, it is not very stable, it needs support on the wall or if you have 2-3 of the same, you can screw them together
Smoothing all exposed edges, that is, on the sides of the shelves and on the ends of the beams, so that they are not sharp. Definitely support on the wall, and if there are more than one, use screws that are already available. The result is definitely not like regular Dexion, but for lightweight items, it is fine.
