can it be put together (&amp; still be sturdy) without the middle shelf?

I use the middle shelf so I don't know for sure but I think it certainly wouldn't be as sturdy without it. But I don't think it would be wobbly, especially if you weren't going to roll it around a lot.

Yes. The storage arrive in pieces so you just skip the 2nd shelf when you put them together. :)

Yes you can. You have to screw this shelf into the structure. I'm not sure but it might reduce the stability of the entire structure if it's not used. Maybe not too much though.

Not really. There are two horizontal pieces near the bottom, one in front and one in back, that are necessary with the top shelf to make it stable. If it fits your space it is a great piece though. The spacing of the drawers is adjustable.

The middle shelf in the bottom area can be left out, but not the top section.

Yes. You can have it at whatever height you like. You can completely exclude the middle shelf if you prefer. But you may lose a little rigidity because the cart is held together using compressive joints. So the less joints you have the less rigidity.

Yes you could, the item comes "assembly required". So you would just set bottom tray out without setting up pillars to add second shelf.

Yes, I believe you can just leave the middle shelf out. There are double screws on each leg that holds the shelf but they are not necessary for the integrity of the bench. It feels very sturdy and I really like that for sitting on while putting shoes on etc.

There are notches cut out on the legs to insert the shelf. I doubt it would be very stable without the shelf.

I assembled it 4 years ago, so hard to remember. The shelf was definitely it's own piece that was slipped onto the legs. My guess is yes you could omit, but it would probably impact stability.

Yes. My equipment would not fit there either. So I put it together without the center divider in the shelves. And it looks just as good.

Yes. The framework makes the stand sufficiently rigid that the shelf is not needed.

The corner posts are each 2 interlocking pieces. Could probably be assembled without center shelf. You might lose some of it's load bearing capacity due to the loss of bracing.

Yes, when you assemble it just don't screw the two poles together. The directions for making two shelves are in the assembly directions.

No, the legs fit into each shelf when assembling so you need each shelf. And for stability you would probably even need to use the top shelf too. Sorry!

It can. Just don't put that shelf on when putting together the unit. Shouldn't hurt the stability of the unit.

It's sturdy if you can put it together because it came without plastic shelf connectors!
