First of all, the shelf is worth its money and more, so I would definitely buy it again.
I bought six of them, so I gained significant experience during the assembly. Initially, unfortunately, all the screws need to be unscrewed. With the trick in the photo, unscrewing all the screws from the package (64) takes 6 to 7 minutes, and in my opinion, it is the first thing one should do. Then, the shelves need to be detached from each other. I did it with pliers and gloves that I wore only for this purpose. Then, I assembled the vertical parts by connecting them with two screws, which I tightened as much as possible, not four because with my logic, the shelf fits in the other two. I marked the vertical parts every 40 centimeters inside and outside so that it would have a shelf at the top, just like in the second-to-last hole from the bottom. Then, I placed two vertical parts on a table, so that I wouldn't have to bend, and I started placing the shelves from top to bottom, connecting them with the vertical parts and screws without tightening them too much. I also placed the metal brackets on the top and bottom shelves without tightening the screws too much. I placed the top shelf outside the vertical parts, while all the others inside (after all, they can't be placed differently). When I finished with all the shelves, I placed the other two vertical parts on top and starting from the middle shelves, I connected them together and in the end, I connected the top and bottom by placing the metal brackets. Then, I tightened all the screws using an electric screwdriver and a wrench for the counter (the hexagonal one doesn't fit). Finally, I added the plastic feet by hitting them with a hammer.
The construction is not stable unless you balance it by hitting the top shelf with your hand until all the feet touch the ground. It becomes very stable when screwed to the wall.
The first one out of the six was assembled on the floor in a closed space and it took me two hours, and I was at risk of having a stroke and heatstroke since I was unscrewing the screws one by one and bending over countless times. When I got into the spirit and followed the guide above, I managed to assemble the last one in about 45 minutes.
Good for its price. I got it for 18 euros. The metals are thin. Don't expect it to have the durability of a regular dexion. It is for lighter items. It wobbles a bit, but if you screw it to the wall it's fine. The package includes all the screws needed for assembly and some extras. It does not include instructions, but even from the photo on the box it is very easy to understand how to assemble it.
I have about 13-14 shelves like this and they all withstand a lot of weight. Lightweight construction that never bent or loosened. Convenient solution for storage
For the price of 16 euros and 3 for shipping, it is very good. We put it in the warehouse and it is quite sturdy even though we didn't fasten it to the wall. Okay, don't put any heavy objects on top. The heavier ones go down below and it's fine. While assembly is easy, it took us two hours, putting corners, straightening, screws to fit properly, plus some points are sharp like a razor and require caution. The corners seemed lacking to me, I wanted two more but I shared them and it seems to be fine. It stabilized correctly on the floor. I will order a second one. With such a price, you won't find anything better.
Good design and application. Binding with screws, complete packaging, when assembling use a level, and tighten the screws properly, not excessively, so as not to skew. It can hold the weight indicated, only if distributed on the entire shelf. Only the thin material reveals its cost. Value for money for its price. (refers to the 5-shelf one)
First of all, for its price, it's great. You don't easily trust that it can withstand 50 kilograms on each shelf or at least without leaning a bit. The assembly instructions are not very clear and I think the way I put it together, at least one screw is missing from the leg joint, I put four screws in three legs and three in one. For the use I got it for, to organize things in the storage room and save space, it's very good. But if you have heavy items to put on it, prefer a more sturdy construction.
Another shelf would be useful.. In 30 minutes I had set it up and by putting the heavy objects on the bottom shelves, everything looks perfect and the construction is one of the most sturdy I have ever bought... Perfect combination of price and quality....
Because I also have one with wooden shelves, I think it is a better choice for those who want to get a bookshelf and place it in a space without humidity. It is also more sturdy and easier to assemble.
I have bought about ten of these (the 5-shelf ones) and it seems like I will buy another ten. For this price (25-30 euros), I don't think there is anything comparable. It's not the best in terms of quality or stability, it requires a lot of time for assembly (over 30 minutes of screwing), I don't think it can withstand 50 kilograms per shelf as advertised, but it is by far the best value for money if you don't have specific requirements. Or if you need many simple and cheap dexion shelves.
Some tips:
1) It is good to assemble it with an electric screwdriver, it will save you a lot of time because it has dozens of screws (around 50 if I remember correctly). The packaging has the screws screwed into the corresponding holes, so it requires double work: first, we need to remove the screws one by one from the holes and then screw them onto the dexion. Even for the first process, I use an electric screwdriver.
2) Obviously, you also need a wrench (size 9 or 10 if I remember correctly) to hold the hole in place when tightening with the screwdriver.
3) Pay a lot of attention to the sides of the shelves. The bottom part on the side cuts a lot! Ideally, we should sand them a bit on an external surface before installation, to avoid problems during assembly and later on.
4) The instructions are not very helpful, the first 1-2 dexions will give you a hard time until you understand where/how to place the screws on the top and bottom shelf, as well as the corners (4 for the top shelf, 4 for the bottom). But after a few minutes, you will definitely get the hang of it.
5) It is preferable to assemble the dexion flat on a large table, first place the top shelf on the side, screw in the 4 legs, then put in the next 2 shelves, then extend the legs, and so on. It doesn't require much tightening, just enough for everything to be in place. Then you take it off the table and stand it upright on the floor and do the final tightening and adjustment there.
6) In previous packages, there were several extra screws, so in the middle of the dexion (where the legs are connected to each other), I would put in more screws than the instructions recommend for greater stability. Unfortunately, in the last pieces I bought, the screws were exactly enough (in fact, in one of them, more than 10 screws were completely rusted, so luckily I had extras from previous ones).
7) It is a good idea to have about 6-7 holes from the edge of the bottom shelf, so that you have enough space to clean underneath.
It requires a little effort to assemble, not that it's something complicated. It was screwed onto the wall with a screw and it doesn't move at all, it would be good if it's not in the air, especially if you load it with things. Durable, it gathered the chaos of the warehouse, excellent purchase.
Very good, easy to assemble. On its own, it is not very stable, it needs support on the wall or if you have 2-3 of the same, you can screw them together
Smoothing all exposed edges, that is, on the sides of the shelves and on the ends of the beams, so that they are not sharp. Definitely support on the wall, and if there are more than one, use screws that are already available. The result is definitely not like regular Dexion, but for lightweight items, it is fine.
It is very good for storage space. Quite good construction. Of course, it needs to be supported on the wall for better stability. I have bought 2 more since then. Honest product
The assembly is quite easy, although time-consuming. The shelf leans a little at the end, but I lean it against the wall and it's not noticeable. It can withstand quite heavy objects.
It is a good and affordable shelf suitable for many spaces, it can hold up to 40-45 kilograms, not exactly 50. It has a lot of capacity for whatever items you want to put and it also has additional screws to attach it to the wall. It is a very good solution
The instructions were somewhat hidden among the plywood shelves, so first I assembled the frame and then found them. It seems sturdy, although I haven't loaded it with the 175 kilograms it claims each shelf can withstand. Everything is fine.
I bought 2 and with the extra screws, I connected them together and now they are very sturdy.
During assembly, you have so many extra screws that you can screw the 4 columns with 6 screws each joint (3 holes in each column are connected to each other) instead of 4 (2+2).
Leave more space below to place large heavy objects and make more shelves from your waist height and above so you don't have to bend down with weights, etc. for smaller items.
It's better to have a cheap household electric battery-powered screwdriver, it will save your hands because it has a lot of screwing.
As an appearance, it is glossy and smooth, however, it has weak columns and is difficult to assemble! It took two people an hour and a half or more to assemble it.
I recently assembled it and didn't have any particular issues with the process. It's a decent shelf. Don't forget to anchor it to the wall. I would buy it again.
Very good for its value and quite sturdy for household use. It also comes with additional screws for wall mounting. All five shelves are filled and there are no wobbles if properly secured and screwed.
It is not the product that appears in the photo. The instructions also show angular metal plates that are not included in the package. Additionally, the rods do not fit together with a structural configuration, you simply screw them as tightly as possible. The rods are different from those in the photo.
Tools are definitely needed, regardless of what it says about not requiring them (wrench and screwdriver).
If screwed tightly with a wrench (size 10), it is stable enough, but if additionally anchored and screwed into a wall with plugs, then it is a good and economical storage solution.
If not screwed into the wall, expect it to fall during a small earthquake.
It takes quite a while to assemble, but it needs to be assembled and all the legs need to be firmly on the ground without being distorted.
I ordered 7, the first one took me an hour, the second one a little less. Until I finish assembling all of them, I hope to finish within half an hour.
If there is help from a second person, the process is much easier. It is better to loosely screw the screws, lift it upright and level it, and then tighten the screws.
The shelves in the package are stacked inside each other, two by two. It is difficult to remove them, I used pliers to pull them out and used a size 10 key as leverage, that way they come out easily.
