Customer Reviews

Okay, I bought these because of the great price and reviews. They were quick to install, but I was really upset by the conflicting or incomplete technical data provided.
On the "Technical Data" portion of the product page, it states that these units can have up to 1,400 lbs capacity. It also states that these units have an overall size of 24-1/2" deep X 19" tall X board length (They recommend 10 ft max for 3/4" thick wood).
Well when you open up the installation instructions, it clearly states that the maximum recommended span is 3 feet for normal duty and for light loading, 4 feet is permissible. This is not what was advertized on the product page and makes a big difference on what can be stored. Also, after you install a 3/4" board, you are only left with space for items that are 16" tall or less. I guess if you only screw in the "lag eye screws" in half way, you might get something that is 19" tall into the unit, but this would definately give you less weight capacity.
Unfortunately, I didn't notice the spec difference until I had installed two of the three units I purchased (my bad). I use 8 foot spans on my installation. I am going to leave them up, but I will only be able to use them for light storage which is not what I intended them for.
I am totally dissapointed by the inaccurate or conflicting technical capacity specs. I have always received excellent products from Amazon and their vendors. I really feel let down and taken advantage of by this product's vendor and possibly Amazon's complicity.

Very sturdy considering one just hooks the supports in place, then add your own shelving. I used 3/4" CDX, and seems to be fine.
