- How much weight can the shelves hold?
- Ameriwood rates the shelves for light to moderate loads such as files, boxes and household supplies. Spread heavy items across shelves rather than stacking them in one spot.
- Do the shelves adjust?
- Yes. The cabinet has five shelves and some can be moved to different heights, which helps with tall binders or appliances.
- How long does assembly take?
- Plan on a couple of hours. Owners report many parts and steps, and having a second person helps with the tall panels.
- Can it be used in a garage?
- It works in a dry garage or utility room, but the particleboard should stay away from damp floors and direct moisture.
- Does it need to be anchored to the wall?
- It is freestanding, but a tall cabinet is safer anchored, especially in homes with children or in earthquake areas.
- How does it compare with a metal storage cabinet?
- Metal cabinets are stronger and more rigid; this one is lighter-looking, cheaper-feeling and better suited to office or home use than to heavy tools.
