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

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.

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

That is what I did. But I ended up having to super glue the dividers, they kept sliding out of the slots. It's fine now, but I wondered if hanging it might have prevented that issue, but I didn't have a place for it.

There are 2 metal brackets that you slide over the lip of the bottom shelf and the lip on the top shelf. You then use screws to hold the brackets in place. I have two bottom units with two top units and they've been fine for the past 7+ months that we've had them set up with two young children.

The center piece on any side has a screw. Lift the center piece out to access to the screw. There are six sides, so there will be six screws. Either loosen the screws or tighten them to reassemble pieces or to tighten the cube to help prevent the pieces from flying off.

I have mine stacked as you've described and have no problem with them sliding off each other. They have grooves in them to keep them secure and seem to work quite well.

Yes you keep them together to keep it secure. I love mine I use it practically every day. Well worth the money.

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.

you can stack the cubes any way you want and there are little bolts to keep the cubes in place.but you cannot add shelves within one unit, there is just pre-drilled one level for the one shelf in the middle.

The top cap on the shelving unit is removable so you could possibly buy another set and just stack it on top, then put on the end caps back on. However, this would make the shelf very tipsy so it should be sandwiched between, say, a wall and a refrigerator or something like that to keep it from toppling over. Hope this helps. :o)

The shelves are structural elements too. They keep the sides together. You'd weaken the whole piece. Cheers

If you have window that opens up from the bottom, there are mental L's you have to attach to the shelf and slip over the sill. If you window opens out you have to secure the shelf with screws.

I've used it as such-- the main problem (other than the messed up top on one leg...), is that small items can fall through/tip over because of the spaces in the shelves.

Ours just pushed and snapped in. Don't think there are any threads in there. Not moving mine anyway, but nice to have the option if I had to. I believe the weight just secures the wheels to stay in place. Shelves are now holding a lot of stuff! Very happy with this unit. Nice and sturdy.

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

The bottom shelf needs to be attached, it is the only thing holding the four legs together. If you remove that, the shelves will be completely unstable.
