I love the free shipping.  This rack is great value--if it cost twice as much I would remove one and a half stars from the rating.  It's simple design is easy to assemble and it is sturdy.  The construction is not flawless.  One rack was warped and another was cut a bit short on one end.  I was able to work around those shortcomings and I recommend the product.  The insecticide smell, if that's what it is, is solved by keeping the racks in the garage, or somewhere outside that is dry, for a day or so.
