Are the black pieces that hold the shelf in suppose to fullly interlock? Building & none of them fully lock, only on 1 side. Not 2 sturdy feeling.

The black pieces need to be in the groove of the metal pole before they will interlock. They won't click but do fit neatly together. The pieces are slightly tapered. They have to be facing the right way, with the thicker end facing down. The shelf will snug down over the two black pieces to hold them together.

I had no trouble with any of mine (I have 3 units). Just make sure they are right side up-first time I tried putting them in up side down.

No they semi lock when they are put on the unit stand - I have 8 units and have not had any problem with any of them

Yeah, the wheels lock (2 of the 4 anyway). The whole thing is quite sturdy, but I wouldn't put more than 40lbs distributed on any of the wire shelves. Top wood block shelf could easily handle more though.

No. It cannot be locked together with an adjacent unit of the same model. As others have mentioned, the way it is assembled might be considered interlocking, but there is no mechanism for attaching multiple shelving units together.I also agree with the answer that suggested you avoid this item. It is made entirely of plastic, and is very flimsy . I strong gust of wind would knock it down if the shelves were empty. It can handle 50-75 pounds per shelf at most, but only if that is evenly distributed across the entire length of the shelf. Undistributed weight will warp, bend or crack the plastic shelves.

My guess is that is has to do with this not being a fine piece of furniture. And your assembly technique. Loosen the screws that hold the shelves, as well as the bracing. When things are still together, but you can move them around a little, put it where it needs to go. Like the kitchen. Now that it is on your level, or maybe not, surface, tighten everything back together. This should, in theory, adjust for your maybe not level floor, or the minor differences in length of the wood. I know my floor is really bad, and this helped.

From what I remember when I put mine together, I did screw them in place. I had turned the unit upside down, then I had to hold the shelf up against the stops and I used my power drill to set the screws into the shelf. Once the first screw went in, the others were fairly easy. It might be easier with a helper! Hope this helps.

Hi Kelly, I just went out and looked at mine, it does appear you have some play in where you set the shelves as every inch and a half or so there is a new notch for a shelf. If you have to go to 4 shelves, or go with minimal gap between you should have the flexibility.Hope this helps!

It seems sturdy to me, but it is not very wide if you look at the dimensions again. That's what I liked about it as I needed a narrower one. Also, each individual shelf is flat wire, so I added glass to each shelf for added stability for whatever I put on it....which added weight to the unit overall. Mine does not rock or move about at all.

The shelves do have a locking system and it is very secure. Most of my shelves have a couple hundred pounds on them and I've had no problems.

You can experiment. The shelves don't slide in and out, you have to build it that way.

There should be sheet metal brackets that slide into sides of the machine to support the shelves. If you have these and they are installed, I don't know what's wrong. I wrote a very negative review.

I've had it on my shelves for 6 months & it hasn't moved. I cut the pieces to be a tight fit on the shelves.

If you took the time to maybe glue your the shelves to the pegs. The shelves have notches where they sit on pegs and they wobble. I like the unit just not unstable shelves. Good luck. It is a nice unit.

I think you may have assembled it wrong by using some of the wrong hardware. When I assembled and tightened to a firm snug level, they adjust perfectly. I would re-evaluate the pieces you have used

I used 2 tracks to hold it. It's a heavy shelf and I don't think I would trust just one track. It hooks in at the top and also at the bottom.

They pretty much glide and can't fall out when you pull them out all the way. No shelf in between but that's not a problem. All drawers lock but the top opens front to back and has a mirror. That part does not lock. Like this piece very much.

I don't think so. The way the unit assembles, there are locking type mechanisms on each row designed to provide an additional kind of sturdiness when put together properly. I considered leaving out a shelf myself. However, I determined it wasn't worth turning the unit into an unstable piece.

I'm not sure if your question was ever answered or if you even need to know now, but we just bought this and the shelves are adjustable. You have 3 slots on the top and bottom shelf to adjust accordingly. Overall, we are not very pleased with this. I'm going to have to take it all apart and try putting it back together as it is very wobbly. The casters don't tend to lock in and we were missing our metal brackets for the doors that keep them closed with the magnet. It does look nice, so hopefully I can make it sturdier.
