Know before you buy
The standard shelves can hold up to 44 lbs each. The middle shelf is reinforced to support 68 lbs, while the top shelf has the highest capacity at 70 lbs.
As a freestanding unit, it does not require wall mounting for basic stability. However, we always recommend using a furniture anchor kit if you have small children or pets to prevent accidental tipping.
This unit features an open-back design, meaning there is no back panel. This allows you to see the wall behind the shelves, which helps keep the piece feeling light and airy in smaller rooms.
Assembly is required and typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes. All necessary hardware is included, but you will need your own screwdriver to complete the setup.
With a depth of 11.5 inches and a width of 30.5 inches, it has a relatively slim footprint. It is well-suited for hallways or entryways, though you should measure your specific clearance to ensure the splayed legs do not obstruct high-traffic paths.
