I really wanted to like this...but way too many faults in the product / process.
I want very much to like it and I hope this review helps the seller with the product.<br /><br />The good: The shelf and brackets are truly industrial.  They are strong and will support a lot of weight when anchored to the wall correctly.  I have no doubts as to the durability of the product.<br /><br />The bad:  To start off, the package came in absolutely battered condition.  The packing and/or the shipping carrier were quite substandard in delivering me an intact package.  When I took the shelves out, the first thing I noticed was the very strong smell of stain.  The stain did not have enough time to cure and I know this because it was slightly sticking to the paper the shelves were wrapped in.  After about 5-6 days, the smell did subside.  The brackets themselves are painted metal.  This is a problem, because it scratches easily (practically by just looking at it).  The proper, quality thing to do is provide powder coated metal, not painted metal.  In addition to all of this, the wall anchors provided will not work with the screws they give.  Your best bet is always to anchor to a stud, but screw in type wall anchors were also provided.  If you use them on the anchor, the anchor will snap and spin and leave you with a hole in the wall you'll need to Spackle up.<br /><br />The ugly:  They promised a free gift with the order, but I didn't receive it.
