What do you use as a cover for the shelf or do you leave it bare?

On the top I have a towel folded to fit. Stays put. To stop the clanking sounds when my cat jumps from shelf to shelf I bought in the dollar store some of that stuff like you use to open a stuck can (sorry don't know what it's called), it has a kind of none skid texture to it. Comes in a roll and you just cut to fit. PS my cat doesn't stay in there all the time, I keep her food on the second shelf and litter box on the bottom.

I also cut straws and wrapped them around the chains so they don't make noise.

I used to put a crate pad on the shelf for the cats to sleep on, but when they jumped down, it would fall off. Now I use an old dining chair cushion with ties. I tie it to the bars on the side and it keeps it from sliding off. The cats love it.

I found some thin, washable, inexpensive chair cushions like those used for dining room chairs. They have ties on them that I used to anchor the cushions to the cage so they wouldn't slip when the cats jump from tier to tier.

You could set it on a shelf, but another option would be to get those hangers made by 3m that don't mark up the wall. that's what I did because of living in a rental home and not wanting to put holes in the wall either and so far it has help up wonderfully!! Just a suggestion? Good Luck!

I place a plastic cover (the one for tables) on top of the canvas then paper towel/pee pads. Then cover it with fleece/flannel.

Laminate, so be careful how much load you put on the shelves, they will sag noticeably.

It goes on a shelf. I found it handy to store a variety of items ( not too small or they fall through) but still see through and have air circulation.

It has a small ledge that fits a tablet or would have to be a thin book. Putting anything there does cover the display.

You can use a cover or you can remove it from the mount and take it indoor for storage.

i bought a cheap cover at wal mart to protect it. I put it in the garage. i had thought about leaving it outside but was just a little leary.

We kept the protectors that they came in and use those. We just keep them in a drawer instead of on the counter. It has worked well so far.

All I ever due is insert the laminate direct. No cover needed just make sure you're on the right mil setting.

I assembled it 4 years ago, so hard to remember. The shelf was definitely it's own piece that was slipped onto the legs. My guess is yes you could omit, but it would probably impact stability.

I am worried that my shelf might be too thick. What is the maximum thickness that the shelf can be?

I did omit the top shelf. The finishing caps that fill in the holes work the same on all the shelves so it doesn't matter if you leave the "top" shelf off.

I have extra TP in mine, plus "femine items" and I have a couple of books on the open shelf at bottom. I also put an extra washcloth and towel in there, in case guests need it.

Line can with cardboard so no electronics come in contact with the metal. then seal the can with metal tape

I wouldn't use this as a shelf liner as the edges will start to fall apart if they are exposed.

Yes, you could just leave the shelf part out but the legs have notches in them to hold the shelf so those would be visible without the shelf in place.
