Origami R5 4-Shelf Heavy-Duty Folding Storage Rack, Pewter - Large Foldable Metal Shelving Unit with Wheels for Garage, Pantry, Basement, Laundry Room or Warehouse

The Origami storage racks are great! I purchased 2 of them when it was offered on Amazon's Gold Box Deal of the Day. I purchased the Origami R5-01W model with wheels because I might occasionally need to move or relocate the storage racks after installation. I purchased one for use in my kitchen and one for use in my home office. The storage racks arrived folded up flat in boxes. Inside the boxes, they were enclosed in plastic bags for protection. After being removed from the boxes and plastic bags, they opened up effortlessly by unlocking a catch lever that keeps them locked together. Once the storage rack is opened, there is a catch lock mechanism located on the back of it that must be engaged to provide stability and complete setup. The storage racks are tall, wide and deep. Each storage rack shelf is about 35.8" wide x 20.85" deep and each storage rack stands 60" high, when assembled. I like the way these storage racks are designed. The quality is actually much better than I expected. They are very well constructed, nicely finished and very strong. Setup was a snap! No nuts, bolts, parts lists or instructions were needed because no assembly was required! I removed the storage rack from the box, placed it on its side, attached the wheels (A double sided wrench is included in the shipping box to facilitate attachment of the wheels to the storage rack.), stood it up on the wheels and snapped the top shelf down. Note: Folding over the top shelf and locking it down while the storage rack is standing up can be a problem if you are assembling it in an area with a very low ceiling. However, if you have this problem, you can easily just lay the storage rack down on its side, fold the top shelf over and lock it down. Then you can just stand the storage rack up on its wheels and roll it wherever you want to position it. A set of four wheels is included with each Origami R5-01W storage rack. Two of the four wheels are locking wheels. The locking wheels help keep the storage rack from accidently moving after installation. I put the locking wheels on the front of the storage racks as shown in the pictures on the boxes. The 4 wheels included with the Origami R5-01W storage rack are a bit small and the maximum weight capacity (storage rack with wheels installed) is 75 pounds per shelf. Caution: This weight capacity must be evenly distributed on the shelf. Place heavier items on the bottom shelves. These Origami storage racks are designed for use on hard, flat and level surfaces. Do not exceed the, maximum weight capacity. If you desire more weight capacity and/or easier movement of the storage rack with wheels, you can easily replace the 4 smaller wheels included with the Origami R5-01W storage rack with a set of Origami Shelf Heavy Duty Wheels. I decided to purchase 2 sets of the Origami Shelf Heavy Duty Wheels because the wheels are thicker, larger and the maximum weight capacity (storage rack with heavy duty wheels installed) is 170 pounds per shelf. Caution: This weight capacity must be evenly distributed on the shelf. Place heavier items on the bottom shelves. These storage racks are designed for use on hard, flat and level surfaces. Do not exceed the, maximum weight capacity. The Origami Shelf Heavy Duty Wheels facilitate easier and safer movement or relocation of the storage racks after installation. Actually, if you want to install the storage racks with wheels, I would suggest purchasing the storage racks without the wheels and purchasing a set of the Origami Shelf Heavy Duty Wheels separately. Otherwise, you might end up with unused sets of the smaller wheels that are included in the boxes with the Origami R5-01W Storage Racks (Like I did). Note: If you have no need to move the storage rack after setup and you do not want to use wheels, I would suggest purchasing the Origami R5-01 General Purpose 4-Shelf Steel Collapsible Storage Rack (no wheels). Installed without wheels, the maximum weight capacity for the Origami R5-01 is 250 pounds per shelf on level surface with weight evenly distributed. It may be a great choice for use in a garage, office or warehouse. The AMAZON Product Information Technical Details webpages do not give accurate information concerning the dimensions of the storage rack wheels. For the wheels included in the box with the Origami R5-01W storage rack, Product Information Technical Detail specifies the following approximate wheel dimensions: (5.2 x 5.5 x 2 inches). The wheels that I actually received have the following approximate dimensions: (3 1/2 x 1 7/8 x 7/8 inches). The wheels including the housing extend approximately 2.5 inches from the bottom of the storage rack after installation. The height of the storage rack with these wheels installed is approximately 62.5 inches. For the wheels included in the box with the Origami Shelf Heavy Duty Wheels, Product Information Technical Detail specifies the following approximate wheel dimensions: (7.2 x 7.5 x 2.8 inches). The wheels that I actually received have the following approximate dimensions: (5.5 x 3 x 1 inch). The heavy duty wheels including the housing extend approximately 3.5 inches from the bottom of the storage rack after installation. The height of the storage rack with these wheels installed is approximately 63.5 inches. Without wheels installed, the size dimensions of the Origami storage rack when folded are approximately 20 ¼" W x 2 ½" D x 60" high. With the Origami Shelf Wheels (smaller wheels) installed, the size dimensions of the Origami storage rack when folded are approximately 20 ¼" W x 2 ½" D x 62 ½" high. With the Origami Shelf Heavy Duty Wheels installed, the size dimensions of the Origami storage rack when folded are approximately 20 ¼" W x 2 ½" D x 63 ½" high. The Origami General Purpose 4-Shelf Steel Collapsible Storage Racks are a great buy! They are just perfect for my needs. I especially like the way that the storage racks easily fold up and roll out of the way when you don't need them. They take up very little space when folded, yet they provide a lot of storage space when unfolded. I would definitely recommend the Origami Storage Racks to others.

This has been the best shelving unit I've ever purchased. I purchased this shelving unit to put things in storage and utilize the vertical space. I wanted something that would be easy to handle when we got the storage unit, and easy to break down and move once we were ready to move the stuff from the storage unit. I also needed a shelving system that would be sturdy enough to use at home once we were finished with using them in storage. This is the perfect system for all of our needs. It took about 5 minutes to unbox it and set it up. There was nothing to build, no parts to lose, no parts to tighten or loosen, etc. It really is as easy as the video shows. If I ever need any more shelves, these will be my go-to. It was easy enough to set up that I, a 50 year old female, at 5'4" did it myself. It has been one of the best purchases I've made. I'll try to remember to take a picture whenever I go back to the storage unit to show just how much these shelves can hold.

I've been unofficially the spokesman for Origami's products for anyone who has been within earshot of me after I buy one of these. These storage racks are extremely cool, and aside from attaching the wheels, required no assembly. This 4-shelf model was the first one I bought and is what made me a fan. It arrived in a reasonably tight box and wasn't too difficult to carry over to my 4th floor apartment. Naturally, it came packaged in its folded state, and is extremely thin for something that expands roughly 3 feet. Screwing the wheels on was time-consuming but not unexpected. When it was all unfolded and secured, it glided around on the floor easily and was just as sturdy as any other rack I've used, surprisingly. It doesn't flex when you use it -- the clamps on the back and the top shelf keep everything nice and stable. The coating on the metal is smooth and seals well, with no compromises that I've noticed, so I trust that I won't be dealing with corrosion anytime soon. I'm using this as a shelf in my room. As a piece of bedroom furniture, it's certainly not fancy, as it's not designed to be, but it's extremely practical, easy to move, and if I decide to re-arrange the room, or if I decide I need to use the space for something else temporarily, this thing folds up into an amazingly small space for its size. Not to mention, it'll make the day I move out of my apartment much easier. I don't know if storage racks get much cheaper, but I'd rather haul this thing around from location to location folded up than I would disassembling and reassembling a cheaper, non-foldable one every time I needed to move it through a doorway or through any small space. All in all, it's a quality storage rack, and the fact that it folds up makes it versatile and gives you the ability to put it to the side when you don't need it.

Fantastic!!!! I ordered these for a Food Pantry. These are very durable and sturdy. They can hold a nice load of food. They come completely assembled. Pull straight out the box. Wheel comes with the Origami shelving system. No tools needed to put them on. If you need organization in your home, garage, food pantry etc… you can’t go wrong with these. I ordered these about 10 years ago for my home from a shopping network. They are in perfect condition. No warping, no rusting or chipping! I recommend Origami shelving system. I will purchase 3 more for the pantry.

I have so many ORIGAMI shelves across all my homes—basements, garages, everywhere—and they’re hands‑down the best folding shelves out there. They’re incredibly well made, sturdy, and unbelievably easy to use. I own everything from the smallest units to the largest, and I love and use them all. They fold almost completely flat for storage, and the “assembly” is basically just screwing in the wheels or feet and snapping the shelf into place. One person can easily set them up. The shelves hold a great amount of weight and offer plenty of width and height. Truly a fantastic storage solution.

This is a great shelf for permanent storage--very heavy duty and solid. I got mine to use for organizing messy and cluttered areas like the garage and my home office, where things have just gotten out of hand and you need to get the junk off the floor and off the workbench. This shelf lets you pile things on it in a semi-organized way, wheel it out of the way so you can clean, and then you can pull items off for sorting and organization as you put things away. And then the shelves fold up and live in a closet until the next time. There are a few things worth noting: 1. The way these shelves are packed for shipping exposes them to a lot of damage. I ordered 2 shelves. One of them had only minor bending of the wires and sheet metal. The second was damaged so badly that I had to return it and purchase another one, which required only minor straightening. If you require your items to be pristine, you're probably going to be disappointed. I wasn't too bothered, since these are strictly utility shelves and don't need to look pretty. 2. The wheels are too small to use on anything but a smooth floor. They work fine, but significantly reduce the rated capacity of the shelf, and really just aren't made for wheeling over carpeting or any sort of rough surface. 3. I didn't try the 3-inch wheels that Amazon sells for these shelves. I ended up purchasing the 4-inch extra-heavy-duty wheels from the manufacturer (you can't use the wheels from the box stores, as the threaded shaft is a different size. The 4-inch wheels work great going across carpet and the like. But they are fairly expensive--about $30 plus shipping. 4. The 4-inch wheels are great, but the shelves won't fold up completely flat with them in place. They are a little too thick and so bump against each other, keeping the shelves from completely folding. I'm trying to figure out an easy way to lock the shelves in their semi-flat position so they'll be safe to move around without them spontaneously opening (possibly catching a finger in a joint--OUCH!) All in all, these are great shelves if they meet your needs and you don't mind cosmetic damage on most units. They do have lots of pinch points, though, so be careful of yourself, as well as the kids, pets, and neighbors.

These shelves are incredibly easy to put together and work very well. They tremendously reduced the hassle of putting a shelf together. And because they have the option of having wheels on them, you can park a shelf with wheels in front of a shelf without wheels so that you can get to the shelf behind it. These shelves massively reduce the stress involved with moving and putting your stuff away. They are fantastic. We bought six and love them.

I absolutely love this shelving unit that I bought a second one. I’m a craft vendor and these work perfectly to display my glass blocks. They are sturdy and mobile. They make my set up much easier and faster.

Very sturdy and super easy to set up…love these because if I ever move I can take them with me

El que sea plegable es muy práctico, esta lleno de cajas de ropa y blancos y aguanta muy bien. Las rueditas igual nos han funcionado perfecto a lo largo de estos dos años.

Yo lo compré para aprovechar un espacio muerto que usaba como bodega pero era muy difícil de encontrar las cosas y ahora pcon este mueble con llantas el espacio es más optimizado. El mueble es muy fácil de armar... literalmente solo se despliega y ya queda listo. El mueble me llegó con un pequeño desperfecto (ligera abolladura) pero dado que lo voy a usar para en una bodega preferí ya quedármelo.

The shelves are sturdy and NO assembly other than whelks if you want them on for movement to other areas. Excellent!

This shelf is a must have. Strong , sturdy, easy to use. Fits anywhere .
