However, the buyer should be aware of a few things. One would expect to use the shelves for a fairly heavy load (pots and pans). That being said, it would be really advised to mount the shelves into wall studs, instead of the sheet rock typically used for wall material these days. In the USA, interior wall studs are placed on 16 inch centers. In reading the description one would think that the 31 1/2" shelves would work with some room to spare. They don't. The 31 1/2" in the description is outside edge of the bracket to the other outside edge. The actual mounting holes in the brackets that support the shelf are 29 7/8". This will leave you unable to mount one of the brackets to a second wall stud. Thus making for a flimsy shelf solution on the non stud side.
The only solution I could come up with was to reverse the brackets so that the support material extends outside the actual shelf. When you do this the very nice bevel head screws provided with the shelf will be useless. Because, now there is no bevel on the opposite side of the bracket. So you need to take a trip to the local hardware store for 26 metric pan head screws/hex bolts size 6. This cost me another ten dollars.
When assembled in this fashion the brackets connect with the studs just a smidgeon off center. But, the shelves are strong enough to do pull-ups on.
I guess this is only natural when a Swedish company asks a Chinese manufacturer to produce a product for sale in America.this is one beautiful item. it looks just like picture. the only reason i gave it a 4 stars, is because they do not come with mounting hardware..luckily my husband has tons of screws and anchors. also the spice rack onlu holds small spices on bottom 2 shelves and most spices come in large sizes(that i buy)but other than that i love it. none of my friends have this one.

I love this shelf. It is very sleek and really nice looking. The only down side to this shelf is that the assembly is pretty involved, and hanging it on the wall is not a super simple process. I mean I didn't struggle with putting it together or hanging it. It was a lengthy process though and when you're drilling holes in your wall you better make sure you're right. Overall, I love the shelf just not the assembly.Read Best Reviews of Kitchen Shelf Rack Set Stainless Steel Here
I thought that this wall system was all attached, but each part is hung separate. I liked the ability to be flexible in how I hung it. It was just what I wanted. Seems sturdy. I have some large bowls on the shelves and they don't sag. But a little overpriced.i like the shelf, its very solid, came on time, the towel rack was wrong but they sent me the right one
