The SONGMICS 3-tier rack is a metal storage solution designed to maximize vertical space in closets or entryways. Specifications indicate a chassis made from powder-coated carbon steel with a wall thickness of 0.8mm. Tests show that while it is rated for standard footwear, the structural integrity is best maintained when the weight is kept under 30 lbs per tier. The "Ink Black" finish provides basic resistance against daily wear, though care should be taken with heavy metal buckles to avoid surface chips.
Designed to adapt to various shoe types, the unit features adjustable shelf heights that can accommodate 6-inch ankle boots on the lower level. Features include four side hooks, each built to handle about 5 lbs, making them useful for hanging umbrellas or small accessories. To ensure the unit remains level and stable, it is recommended to tighten the screws to 80% during the initial setup and finish the tension once the rack is placed on its final surface.
For floor protection, the unit includes plastic end-caps to help prevent marks on hardwood or laminate surfaces. While the rack is marketed for 18 pairs, practical use suggests a capacity of 4 to 5 pairs of adult men's shoes per row to avoid overcrowding. Support is provided for daily organizational needs, provided the unit is used within its static load limits.
The use of longitudinal steel support bars beneath the shelving surfaces helps maintain the shape of the rack under the weight of standard sneakers.
If you prefer a version that uses natural materials rather than metal, you might consider the Romguar Craft Bamboo Rack for your closet.
