VonHaus 5 Tier Plastic Garage Shelving Racking Storage Black Pack of 2
08 November 2020
Easy assembly, practical and versatile
I have purchased this type of shelving on three occasions, from various sellers, and found them practical, lightweight and simple to push together. As they are all-plastic, I also bought some to use outside. It is quite easy to make up the standard pack into smaller units of different sizes, extra base-feet can easily be improvised. The drawback I have found with the indoor shelves is that if fully loaded after a couple of years or so they begin to sag or lean. I have got around that for the outdoor ones by bolting them to each other or to the side of the shed. I wouldn't recommend the 4 or 5 tier sets for households with children, for reasons of safety and climbing, but for me they are very useful indeed and don't cost a fortune. I am highly likely to purchase more in the future.
I feed my garden birds daily and originally ordered these pellets when because of lockdown I was unable to visit my usual stores and shops. They have proved an excellent buy. The birds love them and I know that they provide good nutrition for them and their young. I decanted the bulk box into empty 4-pint plastic milk bottles for safer, easier storage and use them both scattered loose and as part of a home-made mixture to refill empty coconut halves. One always expects to pay a little more for mealworm products but these are excellent value, good quality, intact pellets not dust, competitively priced (even allowing for carriage fees) and easy to use. It will be a while before I have used up the box but I would definitely re-order and recommend.
