Is there anything that secures multiple cubes together, eg. Grooves or screws? I am worried about my child pulling up on it & the shelves falling.

No there isn't anything the cubes do have some heft but a child could topple them

I felt that the whole thing slid around a lot so I got that grippy shelf liner stuff at the dollar store and put that under it. That helped a ton.However in my opinion it's not the pad that needs to be secure...it's the wiggly baby! The dresser I had it on was very high. As soon as my son started sitting up at about 5.5 months I put the pad on the floor. I wasn't taking any chances! It's been there ever since!

I no longer have these, but as I recall, there is one way to stack them for nesting and another for shelves. I recall that the shelving arrangement snapped in place. I also used them in a small camper closet and they worked perfectly.

Hi. I want to build a shelf that falls down. Not one that gets pulled up. Would it in your opinion make sense to use these brackets? They would be on the two sides of the surface I will be using. Thanks for any reply on that!

Be careful, screws holding top shelf are very short, and are in pressboard. I had mine colapse so I replaced screws with through and through, now will hold anything.

Yes, there are plastic connectors that snap on to hold the shelf. Just skip them where you do not want the shelf. Hope that helps.

The biggest problem with stacking them is weight. Unless you are storing something extremely light, the weight of the top unit is going to cause the bottom unit to buckle, making it a huge pain to open the drawers.

Do you mean for security or just so they don't move? I have not needed to secure them. They just stay on the shelf... Maybe some earthquake putty if you find it is slippery. If it is to prevent theft - I don't know.

Do not do that unless ypu plan on securing them together. Look into getting a bigger cabinet just to be safe. Seriously it will fall over if you stack them. Not worth the injury.

I have this cabinet in brown in my kitchen for an extra pantry...I also have twin 5 year olds and we have never had a problem...I keep heavier items on bottom usually and kids can't even move it let alone it move itself. Very sturdy...I bought the one in the picture for extra closet space...each kid gets a side and they even climb in that one without it being anchored...I am a nervous mom about these things so I was concerned with sturdiness also...hope this helps!

None it easily screws together by hand...I did use a rubber mallet to gently tap the selves into place which makes it a bit easier, but you can do the whole thing without it. If you have the version with wheels, a wrench is supplied to tighten the wheels in place. It is very easy to put together, and the instructions are easy to follow. A stepstool and a helper is useful in placing the higher shelves, but I put the whole thing together by myself in just over half an hour, and I'm no great handyman...Hope that helps.

They do not unlink from one another, I do not have a floating shelf, it is held up by shelving brackets. I used clear tie wraps/zip ties to hold up the chain itself against the brackets horizontally. After the chain was secure I arranged the stuffed animals in such a way that the brackets were no longer visible. I can upload pictures of how I used this product.

You can stack these but they do not lock as they have no fitting chanels to stablelize movement of cubes.

We secured our tv, bookshelves and glass case with two. We tried to secure his clothes drawers with two but only one side was secure (user error not a problem with the product. We needed longer screws...). The drawers are secure enough but not as safe as it potentially could be. Use two. You won't regret spending a little extra. My kid is all over the place and two could potentially save him one day.

Yes. Two for each shelf I think. They are spring-loaded, you squeeze them and clip them into place, then they won't budge.

Hi I'm sorry I no longer have the product - moved and it wasn't worth bringing. Not sure if this helps but it is flimsy and if you have toddlers the shelves do not require a lot of strength to wobble.

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.
