The 800 Pound Elephant in the Kitchen.
February 9, 2009
If you’re like me, you are always in need for extra storage in the kitchen or pantry. Well, I’ll give you some sage advice: invest in the toughest shelves you can afford. The tougher the better. Because your kitchen is going to become a whirlwind tornado of activity and bowls and splattering of food and cans and boxes of raw material (if you cook at home). And equipment, lord knows you’re going to need shelves for your kitchen equipment. Well, that equipment is heavy, so you’re going to need the best, and the toughest. How about a wire shelving unit that can handle 800 pounds?
This Heavy-Duty Storage Shelf is a triumph. I found it over at Organize-It while looking for new and innovated shelves. Mission accomplished. It holds 200 lbs (evenly distributed) per shelf! This Shelf Unit is tougher than anything I’ve found in a garage, or a closet, or a wall shelf, or even a bookshelf. It’s one tough customer. But wait, now that I think about it, it COULD work for them as well! The metal shelves would be great for the garage for tools and paint cans, pitch-perfect in the pantry, and lovely in the living room for your tv and dvds! Each kit comes with four wire shelves, which are fully height adjustable, and four poles. This is a tough shelving system.
Highest Possible Recommendation.
Terrific. Simply terrific. i think I may have to order more than just a few. These will really help out around the house, and more. Wonderful.
Glad I could help. The kitchen is always a point of organization attack for me. it’s the front line, and also a danger zone. it can get dirty, fast. The more shelves the merrier.

You’re not kidding. I STILL DON’T HAVE ENOUGH SHELVES TO GO AROUND. Can you believe it? STILL? “The more shelves the merrier” is a pretty neat tag line. Did you make it up, or did you read it somewhere?
I always write original material. You can quote me, but give me credit if you do.

Will do, pal! My wife can’t stop laughing, laughing… because it’s true! TRUE! “The more shelves the merrier.”
Good work.
In your next post I think it might be time to explore thermodynamics, both applied and relating to conversion.
Just a suggestion.
Well, Bob, I don’t know that it would be relevant.

Really? To shelves and shelving units? Why? Certainly a thermodynamic system is composed of particles, whose average motions define its properties, which in turn are related to one another through equations of state. How does that not relate?
Shelves hold things.

Yes they do, and that’s EXACTLY my point! Thermodynamics can be combined to express internal energy and thermodynamic potentials, which are useful for determining conditions for equilibrium and spontaneous processes! How can you say, in good conscience, that this has NOTHING TO DO WITH shelves?!

This has nothing to do with shelves.

Fair enough.
