InterDesign Easy Lock Pro Shelf, Brushed Stainless Steel
While I really like the build quality, what really sold me on this is the mounting method. You affix a plastic holder to the wall using either screws or the supplied silicon glue. I used the screw method since I was mounting this on drywall (it actually is going into my kitchen rather than the bathroom). But, I can see the strong appeal of using the glue method for a tile mount. Drilling into nice tile is always nerve-racking for me. Plus, should you want to replace the shelf down the road, you're left with holes in the tile.
But, since I didn't use the glue, I can't speak to how good a job it does holding the shelf. The instructions are pretty easy make sure the tile is spotlessly clean, apply the glue and let it dry for 24 hours. The mounting plate has some pre-applied adhesive pads so the plate stays in position while the glue is drying. Very nice touch since that avoids the need to clamp or tape it to the wall during the drying phase.
I posted some pictures so you can see what the mount looks like from the back. It comes with 2 screws and wall anchors (for screw mounting) and a tube of silicon glue (glue mount).
In addition to making it easy to hang, the mount allows you to very easily remove the shelf from the wall should you want to clean it, or clean behind it. Just lift up, and the shelf comes off the mounting bracket (the bracket has grooves to hold the shelf). The shelf is very stable in use you have to lift it straight up to have it come off from the bracket.
You can spend far less on a bathroom shelf/organizer, but I find the plastic ones look really bad after just a fair amount of use, and the chrome metal ones usually rust. This is made so that it will stand up to having the soap scum scrubbed off of it, won't rust, and is easy to remove (which is half the battle when cleaning items such as this). Pricy, but well worth the cost.I had my contractor install this using the glue to avoid drilling into my new tile. I waited the requisite 24 hours then put the EMPTY bottles I planned to fill for use in the shower. The shelf fell within an hour. On the plus side, the glue was easy to remove as claimed. I am not using this shelf and seeking a replacement.

The shelf is sturdy, but the glue that came with it was completely dried up when the product came. Couldn't get more from Amazon or the company without sending the whole thing off for a replacement, so I just used silicone adhesive I had around the house. Other than that, it's a good shelf... but be ready to find your own glue.Read Best Reviews of InterDesign Easy Lock Pro Shelf, Brushed Stainless Steel Here
it makes my bathroom look so quaint and oasis like. the picture does not do it justice it was a great buyWant InterDesign Easy Lock Pro Shelf, Brushed Stainless Steel Discount?
I really wanted this to work. I followed the instructions exactly, cleaning the area with alcohol, letting the silicone glue dry for a full 24 hours before placement of the tray. It was a smooth surface. It held my 1-lb soap bottle very well. The next day I added a 1-lb shampoo bottle (it says it holds up to 20 lbs). Crash. Within 2 hours of adding the second bottle it all fell down. I can't drill holes into my shower wall and this glue method clearly doesn't work.Thursday, May 15, 2014

Alera Shelf Liners For Wire Shelving, Clear Plastic, 4/Pack
Buy Alera Shelf Liners For Wire Shelving, Clear Plastic, 4/Pack Now
This are really thick, great quality liners. They come as four pre-cut liners, not a roll that you cut yourself. They ended up being just a smidge too big for my pantry shelves, so I cut a tiny bit off and they fit great. Fantastic price for such sturdy liners.Read Best Reviews of Alera Shelf Liners For Wire Shelving, Clear Plastic, 4/Pack Here
These do the job. I was trying to put some things on my wire shelves that just don't place well on the wires: e.g. small bottles, small cans, my George Foreman Grill (the legs go through the wires), etc. My only complaint is that my shelves came with 5 shelves, but they only give you 4 liners with this product. In all fairness, they are NOT the same manufacturer and I can probably put things on the top shelf that don't need a liner, but just wanted to remind the reader to count their shelves and their needs.Want Alera Shelf Liners For Wire Shelving, Clear Plastic, 4/Pack Discount?
These liners make your wire shelves complete. I have several of these metal wire shelving units (e.g. Seville Classics SHE18484 18-Inch by 48-Inch by 72-Inch Shelving System, Chrome) in my garage, and now in my office and photography studio too. These liners greatly improve the usability of the shelves for small items and even placing moving my printer around, since I can slide it now and not struggle with items getting caught or falling through the wires. If you're going to put anything other than boxes on your shelves, I highly recommend these liners and best of all they are easily customizable to any size you need with just a ballpoint pen and scissors (see attached photo) for any other wire shelves you may have. Luckily for me Amazon ships these to APOs quickly and easily, since it was hard to find these in Germany!Monday, November 4, 2013
Elegant Home Fashions Shelved Linen Tower with Drawer and Cane-Paneled Cupboard, Espresso
This linen tower is not rocket science,it did take some time to put together BUT if you take the time to do it RIGHT all parts fit as they should and it looks AMAZING in my guest bathroom. I have has this for some time now and it stands strong it has never tipped over (not even when my cats run into the legs at high speeds) The bottom cupboard fits 8-10 folded towels and we use the upper shelf's for hand towels and a few nicely placed pictures to brighten up the small space. Trust me my guest bathroom is microscopic and this fits in well. I did go the extra mile and make a trip to home depot to but new knobs that matched my vanity to finish off the look we where going for. It is one of the best bathroom storage units you will find online for this price bracket.

This Linen Tower was the perfect item for what I needed; I had no linen storage in the small apartment I recently moved into and this fit the need. It was fairly easy to put together and has a stylish look not cheap/cheesy looking at all. It arrived in the time frame indicated. This was a great find!I got this with free shipping under $100.The assembling instructions consist of just pictures, no words, so I guess it makes it universal instructions. They fairly easy to follow if you are good at interpreting drawings.
There were a couple of manufactoring defects, but not enough to return it.
The draw was not cut right, and things did not align, it took some tweeking to get it to work. Once the draw was in, there is a gap of about 1/2 an inch on the right side when it is fully in. When you close the draw it catches on the strip of wood on top, but with a little wiggle it goes in.
One of the bolt/screw used to attach the side to the shelf did not screw in. It seemed the hole it was supposed to go in was to small...all the other ones worked great but this one would not screw in...I ended up hammering the thing in. It worked fine after that :) It did not screw in to wood, it was a plastic receiver.. I don't know the names of these things, they just had numbers no names in the instructions.
It looks quite nice, overall, and for the cost it is not bad. Once assembled it is suprisingly very sturdy.
I do wish it was a little wider and deeper, but it does it purpose.I am very pleased with this piece of furniture. I purchased it for my bedroom as a place to store craft & sewing materials. I found the perfect size baskets to place in the open shelves & a black trash can to put inside the door section for storage as well. My son assembled most of the top part, then I assembled the remainder. It really wasn't that difficult. It probably would have taken 3 hrs without breaks. There was only one instance where a screw wouldn't quite fit all the way into the hole that was pre-drilled for it. I made the hole a bit deeper with a screwdriver (as any expert woodworker would) and that was that. The finished product is very atrractive and it has good weight to it. I was surprised by the extra fittings and supports that contribute to the steadiness of the unit. I would highly recommend this to others.

Quantum Storage Systems BL36 Back Ledge for 36" Deep Wire Shelving Units, Chrome Finish, 1
- Accessories for chrome wire shelving units
- Acts as a perimeter to retain shelf items and prevent anything from falling off
- Made of carbon steel; chrome finish
- 4" Height
- 36" Shelf length
I ordered 10 18-inch ledges from CNS Store Front.
The packages were badly damaged when the ledges arrived.
At a first glance, the ledge seemed to be in good shape.
Today I tried to put them on my shelves and realized that
8 out of 10 ledges are shorter than 18 inches. They seemed
be either 16 or 14 inch long.
For the 2 18-inch ledge, one of them is deformed.
I can not leave a seller feedback on CNS Store Front
since I already put one in.

I suddenly realized a need for a tall bakers rack type of item for my kitchen. I looked into the METRO Commercial line of chromed steel wire racks. They look and work excellent. Some might be fine with InterMETRO as well, for lighter weight items.In any case, I discovered, much to my dismay, that the rack company did not offer any sort of proper siding / backing, to keep items from sliding off the racks which can especially happen during movement. Then I discovered these sidings / backings and tried it. It worked excellently. Fit very nice and neat, but snugly, and provides an exceptional appearance as well as the sturdiness of support all the way around. If you are going to buy any metal wire racks, I very much recommend that you also purchase these sides and backs to go with them, just for added security.

Welland 18 Inch x 8 Inch x 1.25 Inch Oliver Wall Shelf Display Floating Shelves Espresso
The instructions mentioned a 9/32 drill for the holes in the wall. However, the anchors provided were much bigger. I needed a 3/8 drill to make the appropriate holes. The anchors were sturdy enough. I marked out the hole locations after leveling the anchor, then drilled and installed the anchors. One quibble is that some of the holes on the anchors are too close to the protruding hangars, making it too tight a fit to use a drill with a screwdriver bit. I had to do those by hand. The screws were also brass, so it is very easy to strip the heads if you are not careful.
I checked the anchors for level, then put the shelf on. There is FAR too much clearance between the shelf and the anchors, so the shelf wobbles all over the place and does not end up level when you put something on it. I had thought that the two screws through the bottom would stabilize the shelf, but all they do is prevent the shelf from being pulled off the wall.
According to the instructions, the shelf is also designed to tilt back towards the wall slightly to prevent a heavy object from sliding off. I didn't intend to challenge the load limit for this shelf, so now it looks like I have shelves that tilt back as well as to the side.
I'm not sure what to do. Since I don't want to risk ripping up the wall to try another brand, I'm kind of stuck. I might make some sleeves from some wooden dowels and see if that provides the necessary stability (and maintains the levelness that I spent the time getting when I hung the brackets in the first place).
If you haven't purchased these yet, don't.chinsy, seriously doesnt hold much weight, barely a vase. i liked the size and price wasn't bad, yet check out other types.

It was exactly what we needed. A shelf that looked clean and sleek. Putting it up was fairly simple. After hanging the shelf it still seemed loose. I tightened it as best I could bt it was still loose on the brackets. It made it seem unlevel when things are put on it. It is not a noiticable centerpiece so it will work fine for now.I had a hard time finding a small floating shelf (18")and this one fit the bill. Quality is ok, one shelf seems slightly twisted but not really noticeable once they were up and loaded. I have 2 and they look good in a tight space.Wednesday, July 17, 2013

Buy Kitchen Cart Base Finish: Black Now
Easy to install, although you really need two people, and very sturdy. Only thing is that the back is one of those folded thicker plywood that you screw on the back, so it's not nice enough to have it in the middle of the room as a divider. You need to put it against the wall.The kitchen cart is exactly as listed. It wasn't difficult to put together, but it did take some time. The cart is exactly what I was looking for & great for the cost.Excellent product at a good price. Assembly instructions clear and easy to follow. Met all our expectations and will fit nicely into daughter's apartment.
