i dont even know where to start! the instructions arent helpful at all so i went off the picture..the metal is VERY thin and bends when you screw it together..i had a lot of parts that i didnt know where to put.after all i got it together but this shelf is very flimsy!you think it would be sturdy because its metal..lol..i wouldnt recommend buying this!you can get shelfs at dollar store for better quality!!
