Can the 3 shelfs be swapped around? I want to take the top shelf that supports 250lbs and put it on the bottom and put the bottom shelf on the top.

I just checked again and you can NOT swap the top load bearing shelf. The other two shelves have holes all the way through. The load bearing shelf does not.

I don't think so. You have to screw the leg through the shelf to the next leg for the bottom and middle. But, truthfully, am not sure.

if I remember correctly, you can't. I think the bushings are different, but not sure

The shelves are not moveable, they are fixed in the locations like in the photo. Not sure about adding additional shelves.

Yes, the bottom shelf has extra support and should handle that weight with not problem. The other shelves I would not put a lot of weight on them.

You can space them out however you want. It is entirely up to you. The bottom and top shelves have a specific spot, but the other 3 can be however you want them to be.

Kenneth is correct....I measured, and the sleeve that holds the shelf to the vertical members is wider at the bottom that then top. You CANNOT reverse the sheves.++++

Yes it can, but just keep in mind that the bottom shelf and the lower middle (third from the floor) are the load-bearing shelves. These are rates for 50 pounds each. The other three shelves are rated by the manufacturer for only 25 pounds. Respect what this is, and it will do fine for you. I have three of them; two I've had since 1996!

Yes, but you can't just switch the shelf to the other side. You have to flip the top piece of the shelf when you put it together. Once put together, it only goes one way.

I am not sure. I used all 3 pieces. I don't think the shelves would be as sturdy, I would be afraid they might tip over. You could try, but just make sure you load the bottom shelves first, so they wouldn't get top heavy. The picture is deceptive. The connector shelves are at the back, so the shelves surround on 3 sides.

Technically yes,but shelf will be very wobbly. You need two shelves to make it stable.

i did not construct mine that way. but i don't see why you couldn't. You may need to anchor the two shelves to each other for more support.

I think the unit needs the bottom rack for stability. You could probably forgo the front and side shelves.

the top and middle shelf are adjustable. That would allow you to have 2 shelf at 12" or a bit more each. The third shelf would not be as tall

Yeah, I don't think that be a problem. They way the ladder attaches and they way the desk and dresser are built you could just swap them no problem. We put my daughters together 2 weeks ago and she loves it.

the shelf and drawers can be swapped and it only involves 4 bolts. I actually built mine with the shelf on the left side.

You can choose were to put the shelves, they have several positions! Both movable. Hope I help :)

I took mine apart to see if that would work. The unit assembles from the top with screw on caps that hold the leg pieces on. Then you slide a shelf onto the four legs. At that point you could use the legs from the second purchase and add another shelf and then put the feet on after that. As far as leaving a shelf off, I don't think the unit would be sturdy enough. If you want to make a three tier out of two , that should definitely work.

Might work on bottom 3 shelves but not the top. Should have no problem holding the weight but may be too wobbly
