on the Workforce Shelving Units"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Although I don\u2019t generally write reviews before using the product for a while, I made an exception with these Workforce Shelving Units.\u00a0 I had seen and worked with them in a client\u2019s home and appreciated them.\u00a0 Then, when I was at the store looking at the various options, I tested to see how wobbly each assembled piece was and evaluate them altogether.\u00a0 And I went home with 2 of these shelving units and wrote my review relatively quickly.<\/p>\n<p>My original post on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jenniferlinnig.com\/wordpress\/2011\/08\/workforce-shelving-units\/\" target=\"_blank\">Workforce Shelving Units<\/a> was in August of 2011.\u00a0 So, how do I like these units over a year later?\u00a0 They\u2019ve not been used too much, my husband finished filling the one in the garage, so we occasionally pull a few things off of it to use.\u00a0 The one in the basement with the paint cans and supplies has probably not been touched much at all.<\/p>\n<p>First, it doesn\u2019t appear that Workforce is available or there was a change with the name.\u00a0 The link for Workforce shelving to Home Depot still works, though nothing specifies Workforce and the picture looks the same.<\/p>\n<p>As I\u2019ve said, in general shelving leaves me ambivalent yet I continue to appreciate these shelves.\u00a0 We all have our preferences and as I talked about in my original review \u2013 these certainly have characteristics that I wouldn\u2019t choose in other circumstances.\u00a0 I\u2019ve worked with some clients who dislike these units.\u00a0 I continue to be surprised by own preference for them as I typically avoid plastic units for this sort of thing.<\/p>\n<p>I noticed that the unit holding our paint \u2013 specifically the shelf double stacked with gallon paint cans \u2013 has begun to sag.\u00a0 We\u2019ve been storing those paint cans there for over a year now.\u00a0 It\u2019s interesting, as although I see the sagging, I remain impressed with the unit.\u00a0 Those paint cans are heavy and due to the way we set the things up on it, it\u2019s not surprising that the unit is showing it.\u00a0 Meanwhile, the shelving that isn\u2019t holding that level of weight is showing no signs of wear and works well.<\/p>\n<div

utility shelving as long as you have large things to store.\u00a0 They are so easy to assemble and disassemble and have the sturdiness that I want in my shelving.\u00a0 I continue to be shocked by how wobbly so many shelving pieces are and personally I do not want to trust shelving that is prone to wobbling when it\u2019s empty and then load things onto it.<\/p>\n<p>As with every product for every situation \u2013 what works for you and your circumstances is what is most important.\u00a0 These are certainly worth evaluating for your situation when you\u2019re in need of large shelving units.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shelving generally leaves me ambivalent, yet these have mostly stood the test of time \u2013 as I reevaluate these units over a year into
