Functionality & Versatility

Pros:

Cons:

• "The piece its self is fine but I wouldn’t have purchased it if I realized it involved screwing in bolts."
• "These are two completely separate shelves that just so happen to come in the same box. They do not work together, and when put together leave a gap at the back that allows smaller items to fall off."
• "Only issue is if you stack them as suggested, it's easy to knock the top shelf over."
• "If used for stacking, the top one becomes unbalanced very easily and slips off the bottom one."
• "it is so low (the shelf if not tall enough) i truly wonder what the maker of these expect customers to use it for?"
• "The legs do not attach firmly enough to the underside of the shelves and so easily spread out with anything more than one pound."
• "My only complaint is that I needed the shorter size only, but had to buy the set."
