    60kg per shelf is not bad given the price. Becareful of getting the shelf wet as it appears to be bare particle board, which can swell and damage over time if exposed to dampness

    • slowmo on 21/02/2012 - 13:01

      would it help to spray acrylic over it?

      if you have the time/inclination, best to seal and paint these before you put them together. Will help protect against water damage

      • slowmo on 21/02/2012 - 13:35

        if i can find the howto/faq for that. lol.
        i'm only semi-skilled with an acrylic spray, just to waterproof some of my works :P

    • lzwdavid on 21/02/2012 - 13:08

      Hi, does this 60kg per shelf mean total 4 shelves can hold 240kg weight? That's impressive for the price.

      • TZK on 21/02/2012 - 13:20

        Id be very wary about putting 180kgs on the top 3 shelves.

          true that…. my guideline is always : never put any weight that is heavier than the lower shelf.

    • Nezuji on 21/02/2012 - 19:52

      Thanks for the tip, haz. I wouldn't have thought of it until I'd already wrecked 'em.

  • rack on 21/02/2012 - 12:47

    Great price. Saw this in bunnings for about $69 i think.

    Actually this is not a good deal because it is bolt together which is a real pain!

    Something more or less comparable from Officeworks @ $19.98

    Dimensions: 710 x 300 x 1370 mm.
    Weight Capacity: 50kg per shelf.
    5 year warranty.

      i have another version of that, and it's flimsy.

      • Horizon on 21/02/2012 - 13:36

        We have something similar too which took about a year or two to assemble.

        It's not too bad if you have heavy stuff on the bottom, and the lighter stuff on top…and have it resting against a wall or something.

        I'd never get another bolt together shelving system.

        I'm sure Officeworks had clip together shelves about a week ago for a very good price. Can't find it now.

        • slowmo on 21/02/2012 - 14:28

          lol. when i brought in mine, I thought they literally went nuts on the bolts and screws. I stopped counting on the 50th screw needed to put that silly shelf together.

    • rmamila on 21/02/2012 - 14:38

      Is it available in OW store to buy or is it online only ??

    • foggy10 on 21/02/2012 - 15:24

      Err, doesn't it say "no screws"? From which I gather it is actually easy to assemble.

      I too have had experience with those that are not "boltless", which literally used something like 50-60 screws to put together. Took ages and my back hurt from just bending down to do it! It's a workout.

  • everyone on 21/02/2012 - 13:32

    Bunnings have it for $35.00. I bought one 2 weeks ago.

    • everyone on 21/02/2012 - 15:48

      This is it:

      • GREY
      • Model number: HUS5097
      • Powdercoated steel frame with particle board shelves
      • Assembles with a hammer - no nuts & bolts
      • Shelves adjustable to any spacing
      • CyberMurning on 21/02/2012 - 16:36

        little bit different specs ie says 50kg max but very very similar. so this post is cheaper by $6. not much a deal.

      • TheManFanMan... Fan on 21/02/2012 - 20:03

        How good is the bunnings one? Like is it all wobbly & stuff or does it seem fairly sturdy?

        • takezo on 21/02/2012 - 21:19

          Mines up against a wall, and it doesn't wobble at all.

        • tebbybabes on 21/02/2012 - 21:57

          I bought 6 of those in Bunnings around 18 months ago. I do believe I also got them $29. They're powder coated steel so none of the sharp edges of the galvanized version. I think the galvanized version was only $19 though.

          I have all sorts of stuff on them and they're not wobbly at all.

          The shelves themselves are bare particle board so keeping them dry is important.

  • jhova on 21/02/2012 - 13:38

    stratco has them too….i forget how much

  • icywind on 21/02/2012 - 16:41

    Perfect timing, need one of those, thanks for sharing! :)

  • boozler on 21/02/2012 - 17:51

    Bought 3.

    • jhova on 21/02/2012 - 18:13

      Limit of one per order.?
      or separate orders?

  • shaybisc on 21/02/2012 - 19:10

    Hmm

  • FOX on 21/02/2012 - 20:40

    I bought this from HN Big Buys for $99 >_<:

    Can someone provide a comforting but objective reason that I shouldn't regret… $_$

    • Lenneth on 21/02/2012 - 23:41

      Yours looks nicer. This one looks more like it should be kept out of sight in the garage or under the staircase etc.

  • shaybisc on 21/02/2012 - 21:08

    You got all metal, chromed no less, plus you got an extra shelf. Yours will last a lifetime, this one won't.

    • FOX on 21/02/2012 - 22:36

      Haha, that's really comforting and objective, thanks~

    They have more stock. I was able to purchase one just now…
