I have installed 12 EZ Shelf units totaling 70 linear feet of shelving onto drywall in my laundry room, utility room, and walk-in bedroom closet. I have installed shelves in 3 configurations -- both ends to sidewalls, one end to a side wall with the other end floating, and full floating. The shelves were straightforward to install. I do recommend watching the installation video at least once to visualize the process. Whenever I was given the opportunity to fix any of the shelf supports to a wall stud, I chose that option even if it meant the shelf supports weren't completely evenly spaced. I was able to install all sets of shelves on my own. They are seriously sturdy. One minor complaint I have is that the backs of the shelf support brackets are not completely flat. When holding them against the wall to mark screw hole locations, the supports rock horizontally a bit making that small task just a bit more difficult than it ought to be. It's not a big problem. I have literally run out of places in my home to install more shelves, except perhaps the garage where wall space is already at a premium. Here's a tip to increase the storage capacity of these shelves. I have put S-hooks on some shelves to hang items from below some of the shelves -- tools and a step stool, for instance. Here is one example of an S-hook available at Amazon that works well: 20 Pack Flat S Hooks Stainless Steel 3 inches S Shaped Hanging Hooks for Kitchen, Bathroom, Bedroom and Office (Medium). The part of the S hook that goes over the shelf tube needs to have a 1" clearance. The bottom line is that I love these shelves.
