Designed to maximize your space, these 15.7-inch rustic brown shelves offer a stylish and functional storage solution for various rooms in your home.

With a depth of 6.7 inches and a height of 1.5 inches, these shelves are ideal for displaying books, baskets, toiletries, or decorative items.

2. Safety Information

• Weight Capacity: Each shelf is designed with enhanced steel brackets to support up to 25 lbs (11.3 kg). Do not exceed this weight limit to prevent potential damage or injury.
• Material: These shelves are constructed from Engineered Wood (MDF), not solid wood.
• Installation: Proper installation is crucial for stability. Ensure shelves are securely mounted to a suitable wall surface. For heavier items, mounting into wall studs is recommended.
• Appearance: Slight color differences may occur due to lighting and screen settings.

3. Included Components

Please verify that all components are present before beginning assembly:

• MDF Boards (Shelves): 2 units
• Metal Brackets: 2 units
• Hardware Kits (screws, anchors): 1 set
• Instruction Manual: 1 unit

4. Setup & Installation

The QEEIG Floating Wall Shelves are designed for effortless assembly and wall-mounted installation. Detailed instructions are included in your hardware kit to guide you through the process, which can typically be completed in a few minutes by one person.

4.1. Preparation

• Tools Needed: Pencil, level, drill, screwdriver, tape measure.
• Wall Selection: Choose a suitable wall location. Measure your wall to ensure proper centering and spacing, especially if installing above a toilet or vanity.
• Studs vs. Drywall: For maximum stability and to support heavier items, it is highly recommended to mount the brackets into wall studs. If studs are not available, use appropriate drywall anchors. The included anchors may be suitable for lighter loads, but consider upgrading to higher-rated anchors (e.g., 50 lb or 75 lb drywall anchors) for increased security, particularly for the outer holes of the bracket.

4.2. Installation Steps

1. Marking: Hold the metal bracket against the wall at your desired height and use a level to ensure it is straight. Mark the positions for the screw holes with a pencil.
2. Drilling Pilot Holes: Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. If using drywall anchors, follow the anchor manufacturer's instructions for drilling size.
3. Mounting Brackets: Insert the appropriate anchors (if not drilling into studs) and then secure the metal bracket to the wall using the provided screws and a screwdriver. Ensure the bracket is firmly attached and does not wiggle.
4. Attaching Shelves: The shelves are designed to slide over the metal brackets. Align the internal channels of the MDF board with the arms of the metal bracket and slide the shelf firmly into place.
5. Securing Shelves: Locate the small holes on the underside of the shelves. These are for additional support screws that go into the bracket arms. Insert and tighten these screws to prevent the shelf from lifting or shifting.

6. Maintenance

To keep your QEEIG Floating Wall Shelves in optimal condition, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe the shelves with a dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which may damage the laminated finish.
• Inspection: Periodically check the mounting screws and brackets to ensure they remain tight and secure. Retighten if necessary.
• Moisture: While suitable for bathrooms, avoid prolonged exposure to excessive moisture to preserve the integrity of the engineered wood.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues during or after installation, consider the following:

• Shelf Instability/Wobbling:
  • Ensure all mounting screws are fully tightened into the wall bracket.
  • Verify that the shelf is fully seated onto the metal bracket arms.
  • Check the small support screws on the underside of the shelf that secure it to the bracket arms. Ensure they are tightened.
  • If installed into drywall without studs, the included anchors might be insufficient for your load. Consider replacing them with higher-rated drywall anchors (e.g., 50 lb or 75 lb capacity) for improved stability.
• Difficulty with Support Screws: If the small support screws on the underside of the shelf do not go in easily, check for any misalignment with the bracket arms or rubber parts inside the shelf. Adjust the shelf's position slightly if needed.
• Bent Brackets: In rare cases, brackets may be slightly bent during shipping or handling. If a bracket is bent, it may be possible to gently straighten it during installation to ensure the shelf sits flush.
• Uneven Shelves: Use a level during the initial marking and installation of the wall bracket to ensure the shelves are perfectly horizontal.
