Wow. I have four of these in my basement right now and they are very sturdy. I had no problem assembling them myself, although it would be a little easier with two people. I highly recommend these shelves. Doesn't look like they are delivering to my area for some reason, but delivery would make it even better because these are pretty heavy. Otherwise I would definitely buy a couple more at this price.

Is this only available thru the Costco "Business Center" portal/warehouse, or do the standard Costco's have this too?

Don't recommend this. The main vertical supports are not one piece which allows you to use it at work bench height. It would be fine for this use.

However, if you want to use it as shelving that joint makes the whole thing a wobbly mess and is a real pain to build. There's no screws or anything other than the slots and pegs to install. Each time you get a side in the other side pops back out.

I built it last week and have been happy with it. Use it to store the bins with yellow tops and haven't had any issues.

I haven't had a problem with them but you are correct about the vertical supports not being one piece. The duty weight of these shelves is fairly high though.

It's a little finicky to setup, but how often are you moving shelves around or disassembling them?

My family bought one of these and and it's been great. Very sturdy

It's in the warehouse, the link is for reference as the product is not on the main Costco site.

Got mine months ago at $80, then the price jumped to $90 so $75 is decent. Have mine setup as shelves, you will need a rubber mallet and it can be a bit fussy to get together, the plastic bits for the top/bottom might need to be glued in, but the shelf has been rock solid for me and has a ton of weight from cans on it.

I also don't recommend this for another reason, I have this in my garage and within a year shelves start to bend more like warp in middle
