:

These things slowly fall apart over time....the plastic connectors crack and then don't work very well. If you want something cheap for a year or two, these work. But for long term I recommend spending more. My recommendation is that if this is 10 tiers, make yours 7-8 tiers and then save the rest for spare parts as the rest of it falls apart. Also, if you build the entire 10 tiers, it probably will be kind of wobbly and somewhat unstable.

Thanks for the advice.

"Nicotine" - probably from the chain-smoking workers in the factory

Everything can cause harm nowadays. Even the slightest trace of chemicals and they have to put this warning on a product.

If this was really a concern, forget about using your phone, or driving a car, or living in a house. They're all full of chemicals.

The air we breathe is probably killing us too. We're doomed

Alachlor
Usage: Alachlor is primarily used as a herbicide for controlling annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in crops like corn, sorghum, and soybeans1.
Radionuclides
Usage: Radionuclides have a wide range of applications, including in nuclear medicine for diagnostic imaging and cancer treatment, as well as in industrial settings for quality control and research23.
Thiodicarb
Usage: Thiodicarb is used as an insecticide to control pests like caterpillars, beetles, aphids, and leafhoppers in various crops4. It is typically found in agricultural

Once it hits California, it's going to be exposed to such high concentrations of "wokeness" to easily counteract any negative effects of these chemicals. Should be okay.

We had one just like this. If you buy it do NOT put a lot of weight on it. Ours was full top to bottom with shoes (just shoes, not storing bricks or anything). Less than a year later and the cheap plastic connector sections were bending and caused the whole thing to lean forward off the wall. I took it apart and tried to make repairs, but there's only so much you can do with cheap plastic.

Like many here, I bought this for $22 back when it was posted here in October of 2020.
While there's some truth in the criticisms here, I feel I got my money's worth. Is it the sturdiest thing on the planet? No, but it's $12, which is just over $1 a shelf. The fabric does sag a bit, if you put anything heavy on it. It also wobbles a bit, so it's not the best for things that you don't want falling over. But again, it's $1 per shelf. If anyone has found a sturdier unit for this price, please let us know.

I'm using it as shelving for all sorts of things from shoes and gloves to display figurines. I'm seriously considering buying another to add another 4-5 shelves to my unit and maybe replace one or two shelves that are sagging a bit.

Bought 4 sets have 0 left. The plastic connectors will crack. Need to spend about 80 bucks for a decent one.

I'm amazed at all of the negative comments. Bought this last time it was posted and I was impressed with the sturdiness of the frame. Great for shoes and hats. Hard to imagine it failing. The fabric shelves I could see eroding over time. But I doubt it with light use.

Worth about $5 I'd say. But if you want to pay $12 for it, be my guest

You must be living in different world, you can't find these for $5! Not even $10!
