Better shelves available for this price. I bought two of these shelves to hold some books. As several reviews already state on this website; the wall fittings are insufficient to hold the shelves, let alone any additional weight!! The shelves are fine, they fit together well using the instructions, the quality of the stickers to cover the exposed screws are fairly poor but adequate for the job, however, they do not sit flush. The method for attaching the shelf to the wall is a bit tricky but quite clever. Unfortunately the lack of strength in the metal wall fittings (described by one review as nothing more than picture hooks) wasn't obvious until the shelves were on the wall. This was for all of 3 or 4 minutes before the first fitting failed and the first shelf fell off the wall damaging surrounding furniture; plus the shelf and fittings beyond the point acceptable to attempt a return. Very disappointing.
