Are the shelves sturdy?

Our one year old uses the shelves to pull himself up and they hold up with no problem!

I have two of these changing tables, one for my newborn and one in my two-year-old's room. Both are holding up well and and shelves are sturdy enough to hold baskets of changing supplies and infant and toddler clothes. The changing surface itself is still sturdy enough for my two year old who is almost 30 pounds, although she is getting a bit long for it and I have to be careful that she doesn't bang her head on the edge. I would say, use common sense not to let your child climb the furniture as that could result in injury or death if it falls over and do not overload the shelves with heavy items to extend the life of your furniture.

The shelves are thick glass, sturdy!!! The hinges hold them good to the back and front two legs of the stand. So, you can put as much as you want.

Yes I think they are sturdy enough to stack up to 3 or 4 shelves and hold glassware or pots on them. I put stacks of fairly heavy dishes on them and have no problems.Mine came with connectors for combining the levels, so it's very stable.

They are holes, and yes, the shelves are very stable. I have the bottom shelf loaded with a dozen or more cleaning products like Windex & Comet.

I would not suggest heavy items. Shelves are only anchored into one side plus they are not solid wood..they are hollow and light weighr

It's surprisingly sturdy. The two adjustable shelves are about 1/2 inch thick. We have it in our hall bathroom holding bathroom-y odds and ends, which are pretty light. I would say it's about as heavy-duty as those bookshelves that you could buy at a big box store.

Yes. This shelf is quite sturdy. I've had it for a year now and had to tighten the screws recently. We use it in our kitchen and it's used frequently. The shelf is fixed, no shelf pegs. I've been extremely happy with the quality of this purchase.

Yes they are! You don't even have to use all the shelves. If you have some taller items you can leave a shelf out to accommodate them.

No...they are very sturdy as is. The backs of all the shelves touch the wall and there is an extra support under the bottom shelf

Yes, the shelves are very sturdy. I just use mine for books, mostly hardcover. I weighed the books I had on a shelf and it was just over 17lbs. That was just one shelf. All my shelves are filled that much and I haven't had a problem with any bowing/distorting of the shelves. I don't see why they couldn't be used to create a very unique and creative liquor display.

I am not sure what you are considering placing on these shelves so it is difficult to assess your exact needs...if i knew your weight requirements then I could make a better assessment. I have only used them for shoes...but they are well constructed and sturdy. They feel like they could hold considerable weight without bowing or bending.

I am using my 2 for a file cabinet and shelf. I believe they will be sturdy enough for your intended use but I have not had the occasion to use them as such..Nina Quinlan

Yes very sturdy. I'm using it to hold very heavy books. This is a great product and looks as advertised

the shelves seem to be fairly sturdy, however you definitely have to anchor unit to wall, it is a little topheavy.

It's not a very sturdy shelving. I almost sent them back. Instead I tried using decorative boxes that fit snuggly into each bin. They are lightweight enough for this shelf and actually stabilized the unit.

It's very sturdy. I have books on the bottom shelf, three containers filled with DVDs on the second shelf, and I use the top shelf for items I want to display (ceramics, crystal, etc.). It's not wobbly and even when I tug on it to see if it'll tip it doesn't move.

Yes, it is fairly sturdy. Especially if weighted with items on the shelves. A flat screen should work.
