I think its because only 3 of the 4 shelves are adjustable but there really are 4 shelves.

For stability I would leave all the shelves in tact. It is not built to accomadate just 3 shelves. It is a little gem, though. Just right.

4 Shelves. Non adjustable. If you are handy you can add shelves and make them adjustable by adding holes and cutting wood to the right size, which is what I did when I needed more space.

Sorry, but I purchased the double shelves, the picture show triple shelves...

I'm sorry, I didn't read your question correctly and missed the "four interior shelves", so the first "interior shelf is not permanently attached.

It's both. 6 shelves for DVDs and 8 if you only put CDs. I have 6 shelves because I only use it for DVDs.

HI!! Miss Melissa, I went to see my Montego shelves and it has 5 shelf. Remember, you have to count the bottom shelf and the top shelf that makes it (5) shelves.

No, there are brackets where the shelves are supposed to be placed and no, it wouldn't look right to put additional shelves on because the shelves (because of the brackets) are spaced evenly. I have three 3 shelved units with a top shelf and it looks great. They are very sturdy and are perfectly matched. I do think they are over priced though.

The shelves are adjustable. They are glass shelves and I don't remember if there are two or three. Maybe they are counting the bottom of the unit as the third shelf?

Yes, you can use fewer shelves, but you would have the height of the third shelf would be the same whether on a three shelf or five shelf unit. In other words, the spacing between shelves remains consistent. Hope that helps.

We didn't do that, but on the order page, it does show it as two shorter shelves. Look at the photo and see if that would work for you.

Hi, and yes, they must not be counting the top and bottom, which does count up to 6 shelves. There is also 6 plastic shelf liners too, so you can use all six without worry of small things slipping through the wire shelves. Makes all the items you put on it stable..another good feature.

Yes. There are shelf holes for 5 shelves and they are evenly spaced. I use only two shelves so I can display larger pieces. The case is sturdy and I like it.

Take a close look at the entire description. Sometimes it's the depth, # of shelves, with or without casters, or co. Also look closely at the material its made from. I noticed the same when I was "looking". Also, occasionally, the photo does not match. :-)

if you buy enough units, you can have 2 shelves here, then then a gap & 2 more shelves. then in that gap, you can go up from there & have 2, 3, or 4 more shelves kind of like this: ----------- -----n----- By doing this, if you have a dog, cat, whatever, you can put their bed in that gap...or anything else for that matter.
