Are these shelves sturdy enough to put my small printer on the top shelf, books on the second shelf, & bins for storing electronics?

Yes, I think it is. Keep in mind that it is particle board and plastic.. With that being said, it really depends on how heavy it all is. I don't know if I'd put too many books on it, but it should certainly hold the printer and some books.

I have some books and a small flat screen TV on top shelf. Not sure if it is sturdy enough for a printer - depending on the size and weight of the printer.

It might be flimsy, but i think it would hold together. Except it would shake when you print a bit. I have one and it's not too bad... The cloth storage should hold fine also

I'm not really sure i mean its sturdy but that sounds a bit like you'd be pushing it, i have a ton of stuff on the top but its all light junk like papers and an empty birchbox and makeup/makeup brushes, so the printer would probably be pushing it, that's a lot of force. I wouldn't put it there just to be safe.

it can hold a small photo printer, I use the corner shelf for a 2nd monitor and a speaker.

Yes, the shelves are very sturdy. I keep large vases of seashells on mine, and some very large shells. The shelves are quite thick!

I personally think it's very sturdy. I think a printer (provided that it's not super-heavy) would fit just fine on top.

They are sturdy but I don't know how much weight you could put on them. I have pictures and knickknacks which aren't that heavy. It is a nice shelf. I like it a lot.

The shelves are not designed for book. They do not have the depth. CD's just fit. They are strong enough for what they were designed for.

I have this shelf unit with the wheels attached and it has a bit of flexibility. If you took the wheels off and had a couple packs of printer paper in the lower drawer, it should work for your needs. That would be assuming your printer runs somewhat stable and is not one the shakes and rocks and rolls as it prints. J. Michael

I think it would be fine, depending on the dimensions of your printer. It's certainly sturdy enough IMO - I have a Keurig commercial 1-cup coffeemaker and toaster on the top shelf, middle shelf is a microwave oven, bottom shelf is a bowl for fruit, etc., and it isn't tippy or anything.

The shelves are just two L shaped brackets. They are pretty sturdy. I have a DVD player and cable box on mine and it's plenty strong enough for me. Depends how big and heavy they are.

I don't think so. It is quite delicate. I use it for display purposes only. For the price, it looks nice and serves my purpose admirably but it is not a strong bookcase and while the bottom shelf is the most stable I believe a printer would simply be too heavy.

Yes, the shelves are sturdy. We have them loaded with baskets of papers/mazagines, a wine bottle holder, wine glasses, framed pictures, candleholders, and a laptop.

Yeah. I would say the last two shelves will. I'm using it as more of a decorative shelf. I would recommend a more sturdy shelf if you are just looking for book storage however.

Actually, the shelves are anything but flimsy. They should be more than sufficient to hold the weight of normal books, however, I caution against stacking them too high as the shelving unit is only 10.5 " deep.

The shelves are held up by metal nubs that can only support them from the bottom; however if you don't use the shelves and just buy bookends that could work.

Depends on the box dimensions and weight, but in general I would say no. They are sturdy for things of moderate weight, but books could be too taxing. The shelves are also not high or wide enough for what I would consider moving boxes.

They are pretty sturdy, you can easily do 10-15 pounds per shelf. It is 3/4" composite board material so it's going to hold a full load of books if you needed.
