Regency 14" Wide NSF Black Epoxy 4-Shelf Kit with 64" Posts

I have built several wire shelving units and this Regency unit along with the 14"x48"x64" were very frustrating to assemble. This issue appears to relate to the plastic clips that snap around the support posts. Inside each clip is a narrow piece of plastic that extends out and is meant to find inside the interval cut rings on the support posts. The problem is the clips do not stay in place. Despite orienting the clips correctly (it says "top" on the clips), once you put them in place and add the shelf and tap it with a rubber mallet, the clip loses position and slides down. I ended up using clips from another shelving unit I had to get them to stay in place. I think either the inside notch on the clips was either designed too short or the rings on the support posts were not cut deep enough. Either way, I would have gladly paid WAY MORE money to buy a better product of another manufacturer!

This website just ate the thoughtful detailed review I wrote. The black enamel arrived damaged on most of the pieces to this shelf as well as the other pieces and accessories I ordered as well. I've had other similar shelves with a matte black finish which I highly prefer over the gloss enamel coating on these. I do love this style of shelf, customization, and the graduation (numbering) on the posts which makes it easy to get shelving level when assembling. Assembly alone can be tricky.

It was easy to install for me. I found out the best way to install these guys were to lie them down on the floor and slide the brackets into the poles. That way the plastic clips do not come out.
