Can the middle shelf be removed and placed on the lower shelf for added stability?

each shelf snaps in with a "c" shaped connector to the frame. You could remove the middle shelf and put it upside down on the lower shelf (the connector won't fit on top of another shelf, but if you flip it over, it should be OK). We'd loved these shoe racks...great product.

Each shelf snaps onto a bar (there are three bars going across each side), so I would say no. Also there is no need for added stability - it seems very sturdy.

You could LAY the middle shelf on top of the lower shelf, but there is not going to be a sidebar for it to hook onto. (the side bars are pre-attached, and can not be moved.)

The middle shelf could be laid on top of the bottom shelf, but would not be able to snap onto the frame. The metal reinforcements on each shelf coupled with the fairly fine mesh makes each shelf very sturdy on its own.

The shelf can be removed but it won't latch onto the bottom shelve. It's designed to snap onto the crossbars and will only secure one shelve per row.

Yes. Middle shelf is welded to uprights from lower shelf, so that only adjustment is in height of top shelf above fixed middle and lower. You could saw the middle shelf off, and still bolt top shelf supports to lower shelf uprights, with original high-low limits, but likely minor loss of strength (due to less overlap) at highest position.

Yes both the upper and lower shelf can be removed. This is a really sturdy stand.

Yes you can adjust the middle shelf to any height you want or leave it out all together.

Yes, you can construct the cart without the middle shelf. I don't believe it will reduce the stability. I do believe the cart seems a little unstable due to the wheels. I erected mine with the wheels as I need to roll mine, but if at some point I need to use it where I won't move it.....I'll be taking the wheels off. Hope this helps.

If you mean the very top of the unit, I'd say yes but Id glue or fasten permanently some of the middle shelves for stability. Otherwise it might want to sway. The top shelf is quite thick which is good.

the middle shelf just sits there on brackets so it can be easily removed. It's made that way for folding it up flat. I can't really tell but I guess you could get away with not having the middle shelf.

you can remove most of the shelves, but not all. The two middle shelves are part of the frame of the cabinet and are needed for stability. I can check the height of the shelves and get back to you.

yes, you can remove that one in the middle. As long you dont remove the bottom one too, U will be save concerning the stabilty. I would not recommend both (bottom part and middle shelf) since then the whole desk may be loose its static.

You could remove a shelf but I do not know what that would do to the structural integrity of the unit. There are two steel rods that run the entire height of the unit in the back wood separators so you may need to put some sort of spacer between the blocks where you took out the shelf to keep the height the same.

Yes the shelves can be removed. They are on adjustable pins, and can also be moved to five different heights.

There are grooves that the shelf sit in so it cannot be moved. I am not sure if it would diminish the stability if you left the shelf out.

The shelves help stabilize the rack. I wouldn't risk ii, especially if you are placing heavy items on the top shelf.

Yes, it can be built without the bottom shelf, but it provides a great amount of stability. It may be very wobbly without it.

Yes. Do not install the middle shelf. When instructions say to install the middle shelf, install the top shelf in it's place and you will still have a finished top shelf. Hope this helps.

Yes I suppose you could!! The four lower rods go from the floor up to the wooden shelf so you could forego adding the middle shelf on.

The bottom shelf can be removed. However, the shelf does a lot for the stability of the table, so you might want to be careful. With ours the shelf actually helped to make the legs look straight as well.
