As I have probably mentioned recently I have recently been in a car accident and so am off work getting better but bored. You know how it is boredom and being stuck in the house you begin to notice things that wouldn`t normally bother you. And so that takes me to our garage, not that I am stuck in the garage you understand!!
Our garage leaks..that is an understatement, the bricks are crumbling and things get really damp in there. So we decided the time had come to sort things out. It was when the builders came to do the estimates I realised just how much junk we kept in there "just in case it came in!!" Anyway 6 car loads to the tip later we had a pile of stuff we wanted to keep and no where to store it as the rotten, second hand cupboards had made their last journey… to the tip!!
And so to the purpose of this opinion …. shelving. I looked through various catalogues trying to find a suitable product. Ikea looked favourite but there shelving was wooden, could go rotten you see.. and it involved going to an Ikea to store.. a prospect that does not fill me with glee, but maybe I`m in the minority there. :0) So I searched through the Argos catalogue and spotted Keter shelving made of tough "plastic" requiring no maintenance… just what we needed.
The unit we bought is a 4 tier unit. Size (H) 132.5 cm, (W) 69 cm, (D) 30 cm. It is light weight and easily assembled in minutes.. so it said! No bolts or screws involved and will not bend or buckle. Each shelf can hold up to 20kg provided the weight is distributed evenly. The package was small and light weight when we collected it from the store and came in black/grey.
The assembly the is required is just fitting the supporting posts between the shelves, a process so easy that our two daughters (5 & 8) could do!! You just have to push them together! but it does require a bit of a hafty helping hand at times. Once assembled the shelves are sturdy and very easy to carry. They are now laden with paint can, tools, oil cans etc and have sorted out our storage problem beautifully…..no all I am waiting for is the garage to be repaired!!!!
The shelves cost £9.99 in Argos but on a recent visit to the local B&Q warehouse I bought myself another two sets for £7.98 each. So if you are looking for some shelves I can highly recommend them
