Im not exaggerating when I say this unit drastically improved my laundry room.  I have a slightly larger than average laundry closet, and last year I stacked front loaders in an attempt to gain more storage space, but it really didnt work.  Theres a couple feet of empty space to one side of the washer and dryer, but my electrical panel is also in that area so I could obstruct that.  This shelf is literally the perfect size to solve my problem, since the electrical panel is above it.  I can also still access the water shut off.  This unit was very easy to assemble, and I actually had to assemble it in place in order to avoid having to move the washer  dryer.  I did have trouble finding shelf liners to fit and ended up having to buy larger ones and cut them.
