Denny Shop Heavy Duty 5 Tier Racking Shelf Garage Shelving Storage Shelves Unit 180x90x40cm by Crystals®

Reading the reviews saying it's floppy, weak, thin and various other negative comments, you have to conclude the reviewers don't understand structural engineering. This is an ingenious design but it MUST be assembled correctly and this relies on the tabs being inserted correctly and fully. Granted the diagram is confusing until after you've done a few. The key is that the two tabs must slot into the slots and right down flush into the second part of the slot. You guide the tab into the second part using a thin screwdriver. Banging them fully home makes for a strong locked joint. As all four corners are done the section becomes rigid. Start with the base with a space of one slot below and work upwards to the next shelf. There are two halves and concentrate on the lower one first. After fitting the small joints, the top half can be built up. Centre cross members have two tabs which need to be bent just over 90 degrees and as the tab comes out it can be bent over to hold the cross member firmly in place. Some reviewer's say the shelves are too thin but as they are well supported at all edges and across the centre this is irrelevant and I have stacked heavy machinery on it without any sag. The key is even distribution and putting heavy stuff on the bottom shelf, putting lighter stuff on higher shelves. The unit should be screwed firmly to a wall if safety is a concern and then the rigidity increases greatly. It says this in the instructions. In conclusion, a well designed unit IF ASSEMBLED CORRECTLY. Very happy and recommended.

Right off the bat, this is not the best quality shelving unit on the market but it certainly has a place in the market and for £20 it is worth purchasing. I have seen it advertised aggressively on a TV shopping channel at £45 and thought that is too much for this item. It is light weight and appears flimsy at first glance but gains it's strength once it is constructed. You have to find a technique to bend the tabs inwards so that they naturally want to slip into the female part of each connection otherwise it becomes a painful and infuriating exercise. Also, be careful, as the metal is thin and can easily cut your fingers. Once constructed it becomes a very useful shelving system for a shed or garage. I am very pleased with mine as it has freed up so much floor space and allowed me to arrange tools and materials far better. In conclusion: At the right price point this is worth purchasing.

This is an exceptionally good storage shelf for a garage, the side rails could be of a higher gauge but still does the job. The shelf was gleaming with the galvanisation and looked good. Unsure if it will hold the weight as advertised since I don’t have anything that heavy. Will definitely buy more if I have the need. Assembly was no fuss too, the middle bar supporting the mdf sheet is a bit difficult to keep in place but once the weight was placed on the shelf it seemed to stay. For the price its great value!

Exactly what we needed for our garage! Slightly tricky to assemble, and I’ve ended up with a cut finger because I ignored the instruction to wear gloves…… “Heavy duty” is stretching it a bit, but they’re great for the money

Disappointing the shelving packages were delivered several days apart. Eventually when received, the box did contain all relevant parts. Reasonably straightforward assembly, took a few hours for each unit. Overall reasonable value for money.

Dangerous. My item has so many sharp edges, twisted burrs and unboxing littered the area with metal splinters. Once constructed sharp edges remain. So badly shopped. Also if you're not used to fabricating things and improvising with the build you're gonna struggle, really shoddily put together. Once up it is strong due to tensile strength, but if I had kids or pets I wouldn't have it in my home as they'll get cut eventually. Lawsuit waiting to happen.

This is the second time I've bought this product. Very happy, quite easy to assemble. When built it gives a strong and sturdy shelving solution. Would definitely buy again.

I wouldn't call it heavy duty by any means, but does the job well for medium loads. Assembly is easy and all you need is rubber mallet. No missing parts, there is leaflet with assembly instructions. As I mentioned - not heavy duty (at least not with the provided shelves/shelf forms). Sturdy on its own, but could benefit from fixing to the wall to prevent tipover.
