The shelf was perfect for organizing our tools and was fairly easy to put together--would only take a couple of minutes with two people and I was able to do it by myself after a little finagling. The way that the shelves are assembled (with plastic pieces that the shelf ends slip over) seemed a little flimsier than I had hoped--I assumed that the shelves would be fastened in some way rather than wedged--but if it can really hold the weight advertised, I guess that is sturdy enough.
