The Whitmor Metal Wire Shelving Unit is a utility-focused storage solution constructed from carbon steel with a chrome-plated finish. A key feature of this model is the integrated sliding basket, which helps secure rounded or loose items like onions and fruit that might otherwise roll off a flat shelf. The unit uses a plastic slip-sleeve tension system for assembly, allowing the shelves to be positioned at various heights to accommodate different container sizes.
Specifications show that the unit includes leveling feet to help compensate for uneven floors. To ensure maximum stability, placing the heaviest items on the bottom shelf is recommended to maintain a low center of gravity. The ventilated wire design is particularly effective at preventing dust accumulation and promoting airflow, which is helpful for dry goods and linens alike. While the unit feels sturdy for daily pantry use, the leveling feet should be adjusted only when the unit is not under heavy load to protect the internal threading.
