I was impressed the moment I opened the box. Everything was well secured, and packaged to protect the materials from damage. The box was heavy for one person, but this is a heavy duty product. I was able to assemble in less than 30 minutes. The feet of the rack have holes in case you want to anchor to the floor. It is a very nice looking shelf system to be such heavy duty unit. Storing small items could be challenging on the mesh flooring for each rack, but you wouldn't want an 1800lb capacity to store small items on either. Definitely one of the nicest units on the market. I had been searching for some shelving, but hadn't seen this particular unit before participating in this program. I would buy this unit.
