Ok so I've bought 2 plastic shelving racks and they're both shit. Either 25kg is considerably less than I think or they don't take the weight they should.
Anyway it needs replaced as the plastic is collapsing towards the cupboard door and there will be a huge mess soon lol.
Max 160cm x 70cm x 45cm but as large as possible within that. Must be metal to take the weight as plastic is clearly shit.
Needs to be cheap also though!
Any ideas??

B&Q do a set that take 50+kg of UDL on each shelf. mine stand 6ft tall by probably 2-3 wide and 18" deep. They were about £25 IIRC
It's knock together so no tools needed
Machine mart and various others do exactly the same stuff for similar prices

Why do you have it shoved in a cupboard? Surely get rid of the ikea special and you could have better shelves?
