I received the Gearloft in a well packaged box. The finish is very nice and durable. Overall it went together well. In the instructions though, it shows putting a bolt and nut in 4 places with the shelves against each other. I was unable to get the bolts in the outside areas due to them both having nutplates welded on them. Other than that, it is a very strong and well built unit that should last a long time. Versatile with the height and mounting options.
