VERY GOOD
A bit complicated to put together, but I got a man to do it for me :-)
Like the previous reviewer I thought the actual shelves looked flimsy but they have a lot of support and turn out to be well up to the weight promised, so no problem there.
Am delighted, they look very clean, strong and professional.
I'm just ordering more - that's proof I mean what I say!

Disappointing
Having recently done up my garage I chose this shelving unit to store a number of things which used to litter the floor. I wanted something large and sturdy and this unit large but not as sturdy as I'd expect.
The metal frame is reasonable and not too difficult to put together (I had to figure it out myself as the instructions consisted of one piece of paper which was screwed up and ripped, it was impossible to read half of it). The problem is with the MDF pieces (I hesitate to call them shelves), which are only about half a centimetre thick. Of the 5 I received, 3 had large dents in them and I would have sent them back if it wasn't for the fact I doubt they'll last more than 6 months with or without dents, so I can't be bothered with the hassle as I'll have to make my own shelves soon anyway. I've kept the unit because the metal frame is good. but I very much doubt the pieces of MDF can hold 250kg per shelf, luckily I don't have anything too heavy.
I also had an issue with delivery. This is delivered by a third party and screwfix's website says they will contact you to arrange delivery. This isn't true. I got a call from a lady at the company (forgot the name) who supply the shelves telling me that there was a delivery guy at my door and no-one was home! Of course, no-one was home because I was expecting to be contacted and to know the day they were coming so I could make arrangements. Once I told the lady to tell the driver to leave it next to the porch I thought I'd find it when I got home. No, the driver couldn't be bothered to wait for her return call so had left. I got it delivered the following monday when I told them I'd be home, although it was left outside and the driver couldn't even be bothered to ring the bell and tell me he was here, I found it later on when I went out.
Overall, good metal frames (if you can figure out how to put them together with the 50% of instructions that are legible) but the rest leaves a lot to be desired, I wouldn't order again if I knew what I know now.

What are the manufacturers recommendations regarding attaching it to a wall?
I am looking to shelves that can be used in a rented storage unit where we are not permitted to drill into the wall or floors.
