Amazon Basics Floating Shelves - 16, 20, 24-Inch, White, Set of 3

I had some dead space on a wall that these filled perfectly. The mounts that come with them will hold a limited amount of weight so I don’t suggest anything heavy like books, but for some light decorations these are great

Bought to use as steppers for my cats to get to the top of a wall unit. They are a little harder to install than I thought, but they seem to work.

Only reason for 2 stars is that they look nice. Other than that, same complaints as a lot of other reviews. There’s no instructions on “how to mount”. I had to make my own template to ensure the prongs were aligned correctly on the wall to match where they insert into the shelf.There’s no way to secure the shelf to the mount. It just slides on and off the wall mounts. I have other floating shelves that has a screw that screws in on the bottom side of the shelf that holds the shelf to the wall mount. That that was standard.The hardware is garbage. Replaced most of the wall anchors provided with much more heavy duty anchors that are actually meant to anchor shelves to drywall. If you aren’t upgrading your anchors and screws, you’ll likely wind up with shelves that lean down after they’re put up because again, the security to the wall is minimal at best and the strength of the provided hardware to hold the shelf upright is just not there. Some gorilla double sided adhesive tape on the back of the shelf that meets the wall at least holds them in place. But then you end up with a small gap in between the wall and the shelf.Wish these were better/ easier to mount and secure. Again, they look nice, but a decorative shelf that has almost no function is near useless.

Fit like a glove , I used 75lb Molly and screws. Taped the back to match the holes, took tape off and applied it to my already marked level line, it looks fabulous! Not a fan of the color, I will restain later , but for now just admiring my handy work. Super easy. Your husband can’t mess it up! If you let him do it.

The mounting screws seem to be a bit too small, making the shelves sag a little, or at least don't give confidence to it holding anything over a pound. Otherwise, nice looking and well made. I'll just upgrade the screws and hope for a stronger look.

Love the way they look in the living room. Were easy to install and great value for money

The directions that come with these shelves are worse than useless. They never say you need a level, they only show installation in brick walls--not drywall--and the size of the drill bit they advise is WAY too big. I suppose the pages regarding drywall are the ones (see picture) that were left blank? The screws and anchors that came in the box, which were packed in a way that they looked thrown in as an afterthought, were mismatched. The anchors were too big and the screws too thin. When I finally repaired my messed up drywall, I installed the shelve the way I would have if they hadn't come with directions or parts, using my own screws and wall anchors (and level). The shelves are simple and nice. It's an okay product. If you know how to hang something on a wall, throw away the screws and anchors and instructions before you start and you'll likely be pleased with the shelves.

Quite happy about how it looks.Installation was little tricky since they don’t include the template.

These arrived extremely well packaged and in perfect condition. At present, I cannot comment on value as these have not yet been released, nor has the product page.I have used floating shelves in the past when I lived in Italy. I was not sure if these would work in my modern British home with plasterboard walls. I will say that I used the hall wall which backs onto our garage and is a solid brick wall so that I did not need the challenge of an inner plasterboard wall but with the right fittings designed for plasterboard (sheetrock, I believe the Americans call it) and not putting too many heavy things on the shelves, I am fairly sure it would work.This is a set of 3 each measuring 3.5 cm thick and just under 14 cm deep; the shelves are 61, 41 and 40.5 cm approximately (16, 20 and 24 inches). I do not know what the wood is, but it’s very solid and looks nice. I guess that, when released, these may be available in different colours and types.Each shelf has a deep hole 9.5 cm deep in the back with a corresponding inset to accommodate the T-support.The instructions for fitting are in pictograms and you need to take care to follow them. Screws and rawlplugs are included although, depending on the wall you are going to attach the shelves, you may want to use your own suitable screw, for example for plasterboard walls.Once you have chosen the locations of the shelves, take care to mark the locations for the mounting plates using a spirit level to ensure the shelves will be level. Using the instructions, you then attach the mounting T-supports to the wall. Once securely in place, two for each shelf, simply push the shelf onto the T-support and lo and behold, you have a solid shelf without any brackets, hence floating shelves. Repeat for all three shelves in the configuration of your choice.Because of the design of these, if you wish to redecorate, you can just remove the shelves but pulling them forward gently but firmly, paint and replace.

Floating shelves always look better than ones with big brackets, especially at home. You can make a tidier job as long as you use decent looking shelves. However, there are a couple of caveats, one is that they can be hard to put up and the other is that you should limit the amount of weight you put on them.The weight limit is brought about by the laws of cantilevers. The mountings have to take the full weight as very little is transferred to the wall it’s mounted on. It’s nearly all a downward force.They can be hard to put because the screws are blind and you have to rely totally on measurements. There are little tolerances available. However, there is a trick to doing this. Use some double-sided tape and place it along the back of the brackets where the screw holes are. Pop the brackets into the shelf and carefully align the shelf to its correct position on the wall. Push the shelf hard against the wall and then pull the shelf back off and the brackets should stay on the wall. The brackets should now be in a perfect position to drill pilot holes ready for drilling out and fitting the plugs and screwing them up. This can save a lot of heartaches.These shelves really do look nice. They all have graduated lengths of 16”, 20” and 24”. Each shelf is about 1.25” deep and stand out 5.5” from the wall. The wood has a nice natural matte finish.Overall, they make a tidy looking set of shelves. Hope that helps.

Although the quality of the wood is more than adequate for the price range, I can't recommend anyone buying these.The main issue is the lack of security/fixture of each shelf. Once you have fixed the "invisible" brackets to the wall, you simply slide the shelves into place, but there's no security screw (usually these would be screwed in from the underside and into the bracket) nor another permanent fixture. This means you can slide the shelves straight off the wall, which is a big no-no for anyone who has children climbing around the home. You can get around this by using a small L-shaped bracket and securing that to the wall and shelf (upper or under side), but something like this should come supplied with the overall product.The slightly less worrying issue is for any amateur DIYer. There's no measurements provided in the instructions (eg: hole 1 is 35mm from the edge) meaning you will have to manually figure out the spacing of the brackets, which is further problematic as the pre-drilled holes in each bracket is not perfectly centrally-aligned... so you'll likely have wonky shelves.On the plus side, the wood is paintable should you dislike the colour/effect.Overall, I would avoid – there's better shelves available.

Order product to provide extra storage in bedroom using modern looking shelving.Parts arrived in relatively small narrow box, I open immediately thinking it was outer amazon box and it opened direct into shelves and polystyrene.When opening product I was surprised how small all 3 shelves were, dimensions exactly as stated in description.Nice clear crisp design, fit 2 x brackets into wall using 4 x fixings provided for each shelf and then slot shelf into metal rod support. NB There is no room for error in fitting this fixing rods, need to be exactly aligned to slot on shelves correctly.Clean looking shelves, issue with read through line visible underneath paintwork. Not visible after fitment on wall.You get good value for money, very cheap shelves for decorative storage only.I would recommend this product, just make sure you are aware of size shelves your ordering.Overall: You get what you pay for, look very stylish after you manage to get fitted.

These wood shelves feel solid and they come with an attractive natural wood finish that should match plenty of different wall colours and finishes - and if they don't, I think they could be painted or varnished easily. Three sizes in 4" increments are included, and they look good next to each other. Since the fixing is horizontal and protrudes from the wall, these are truly 'floating' shelves, with no evidence of how they're being held up visible. The holes required for the screws are 9mm, which can be a little tricky to find in a lot of drill bit kits - fortunately they can be bought separately.I've only put relatively light loads on them - some plants and ornaments. I think they could take a decent amount of weight, but probably less than shelves with sturdier fixings.A good set of floating shelves.
