I am very conflicted about this shelf. On the one hand, it looks great. On the other hand, installation made me want to rip out every single one of my hairs. I followed instructions obsessively, marking everything on the wall with painter’s tape and pencils, checking and re-checking. It is frustrating to be off by .1 centimeter after drilling mollies into the wall and finding that it renders one entire portion unsupported—I had to pad some the mounts with felt. Also, manually screwing vertically through the L-shaped mounts is maddening, as there are no pilot holes, and you have to have two people supporting the shelf while pushing it against the wall (because the L-shaped mount is a mere 1.5 centimeters long) as you do so. Both of these major issues could be solved by including a fold-out paper to be taped to the wall that indicates exactly where to place the 6 screws, as well as making the L-shaped mounts significantly longer.
