Can the middle shelf be removed? If so, what would be the distance between the top of the lower shelf and the bottom of the top shelf?

The middle shelf can be removed, it just sits on small metal supports spaced around the sides and the back of the unit. With the middle shelf out you have about 20 inches of space from the bottom shelf to the top shelf until you hit the one inch tall support bar under the front of the top shelf, and about 21 inches behind that support.

Yes, it looks to me like you can leave off the bottom shelf, but the unit may be unstable without it. You would then have approximately a 17 1/2" clearance between the floor and the first shelf.

Yes both the upper and lower shelf can be removed. This is a really sturdy stand.

You can remove the shelves. The height of the shelves is not adjustable, however.

You should be able to take that shelf out. It not as long as you have the clearance under the shelf you should be good toninstall this and use the top shelf.

yes, you can remove that one in the middle. As long you dont remove the bottom one too, U will be save concerning the stabilty. I would not recommend both (bottom part and middle shelf) since then the whole desk may be loose its static.

If you roll the stand with the back whelks flat to a wall, the uprights will be 10" away from the wall. Yes, you can remove the shelf. Hope this helps, we were very pleased with the quality of our unit.

Yes. Middle shelf is welded to uprights from lower shelf, so that only adjustment is in height of top shelf above fixed middle and lower. You could saw the middle shelf off, and still bolt top shelf supports to lower shelf uprights, with original high-low limits, but likely minor loss of strength (due to less overlap) at highest position.

Yes and no. Below both shelves there is 4", but between the middle and top shelf there is only 3-1/2" Of course the top shelf depends on the space above it!

Yes, if you cut the shelf, but the shelves add stability. I would only remove a shelf if the unit held only light weight.

There are two middle shelfs and it is 7 1/2 inches from the bottom to the first middle shelf and 15 inches from the bottom to the bottom of the top shelf which is the only one that is adjustable, at least on mine.

You can remove the shelves and the center upright. The span will be about 3 feet but the top of the cabinet is 3/4" MDF. Best guess is that it will be fine.

No - the lower shelf is needed to keep the legs in line - you could, however, eliminate the middle shelf.

The middle shelf in the bottom area can be left out, but not the top section.

The shelves can be removed. There are grooves in the walls for the shelves to slide in. You can't adjust them.

Harold, yes the shelf can be removed completely. I leave it in and store my 3-ring binders horizontally.

The interchangeable shelf can be moved from either rung. The lowest is 3" from the ground and the second one up from it is 7" from the ground. I have the 3-tier shelf and I really love it! I may come back for this one later!
