Review 1 for Sterilite 5-Shelf Shelving Unit, Light Platinum

Very sturdy shelf at reasonable price

I bought this to match an existing Sterilite shelf unit for garage storage. It is very sturdy, easy to assemble, and integrates with my existing shelf. Pricing is a bit high, but reasonable given the quality.

Couldn't be easier to put together. Used a mallet to seat the legs well... and that was it. My 11 year old had it together in just a couple of minutes. Seems very sturdy. They look nice too.
Purchase to hold boxes of my merchandise will work very well.

I bought several of these for my greenhouse since they were quite affordable. They were super-simple to set up, and can also be modified to only have a few of the shelves if you want. Since they're Sterilite, they're also waterproof and durable. Perfect for many uses and settings.

Best Shelving I ever bought.. I love them....

I purchased these shelving units yesterday. I really love them and plan on purchasing three to four more. I used them in my new pantry to hold my canned goods, they were easy to put together and light weight. I bought the grey ones and boy they look nice in the room I placed them in. These shelving units organized that room oh so nicely were I know what I have and what I don’t.
It’s about time they make sturdy shelving units. I didn’t use the smaller pieces at all just the shelves and the longer pieces and it sits nice and flat on the floor. One thing I did have to do to make sure was the posts on all four corners were in good.
I took a hammer on its side then tapped one time around the four corners to snap the posts in. They are sitting flat on the floor and they hold a lot of items. I wish my Wal-Mart would have had more. I will keep checking back. I need four more to complete the room and to finish stocking shelves into a pantry. I really love these shelving units. I also love the interlocking sides were you can put them together to save space. Don’t stop making these.

a nice easy to assemble utility shelf

Just what i needed in my small laundry room. Fine for that type of lighter-medium use storage (laundry basket, extra light bulbs, laundry and cleaning products etc.). It was easy to assemble. I would not recommend it for heavy duty/weight, expensive tools etc...it is not that sturdy...Fine for lighter/medium weight storage although I do have a very heavy bin of things on the bottom shelf which is fine. Large plastic bins fit nicely.

We purchased two of these shelf units for the basement of a new house we're moving into and are very pleased with them. They are sturdy and stout. Each shelf, they claim, can hold 350 pounds. The posts fit quite snugly into the shelf themselves, so a piece of wood and a tab with a hammer will set the posts into the shelf firmly.
We found no quality issues with the manufacturing, packaging or shipping.

Bought 5 of these shelving units and they were exactly what I wanted and needed! Easy to put together and very sturdy. Be aware though, they are taller and wider than what you may think from the image so check out the dimensions before you order multiple units. All pieces came intact in the box with no cracked or broken parts. Site to store pick was a breeze!

Bought this to hold kitchen gadgets (since we have a very small kitchen). Not only was this easy to put together, it is strong and durable to hold a microwave, toaster, panini machine, griddle and other kitchen gadgets. We like it so much, we have ordered a 2nd one. I have no complaints whatsoever with this and would recommend this to anyone.

I am a girly girl that hates getting her hands dirty and wouldn't think of breaking a nail! So, ease of assembly means a lot to me.
This was so easy to put together. I was too lazy to go get my hammer, so I actually just used the side of a wrench to hammer the pieces in place. It is very manageable and looks neat and clean. It holds quite a bit of stuff, too. It is great for the walk in closet in my hallway.

I purchased this shelving unit for the simple reason of making more room in my cupboards for things we did not have room for otherwise. It was inexpensive, which is important , and yet is very functional for the purpose it was bought. Thank-you.
