Why do both shelves split when screws are partially screwed in?

this happened to me too--and it's absolutely ridiculous. How hard is it to supply screws that won't split the wood? I'm thinking about just dumping it out, or giving it to someone who has smaller screws.

KevinThe screws that the manufacture supplies are too big. You will need to use smaller ones.

I have this shoe rack, and I did not have any problems with the wood splitting after the screws were in, halfway or all the way.

I have this shoe rack too and found that it was VERY easy to put together. I would unscrew the screws and put the rack together the way it's supposed to be done, using the screws they give you. It really worked for me.

The center piece divides three shelves and those three are adjustable. The top shelf isn't adjustable and it isn't divided..

The shelves are not fixed :) I have zero storage space and this thing is a godsend!

There is not dividing material on mine. The bookcase has two parts. the lower part has 2 shelves and the top part has 3 shelves. You will assemble this unit in halves. I hope it makes sense.

The shelves are not removable and they are only vertical. The vertical arrangement worked well. I left some spaces empty so my cabinet does not look overloaded like the picture of it does.

The top shelf tends to bend with the weight of 3 pairs of shoes and might make the side boards bend inwards without the middle shelf making the sides straight. I ended up buying 2 units and removed the top shelf of one and put the other complete one on top of that. Either way, I don't put too much because of the shelf bending from the weight. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure what's wrong there. Mine is slightly larger but once I fit the sides to the far edge the shelves fit in nicely. Try taking it apart and reassembling otherwise I'm not sure what's wrong. Sorry you are having problems.

The shelves are screwed into the unit. They don't allow for the shelf height to be adjusted.

There are pre-drilled holes for the shelf, however, they are not centered. There are several places to put it though.

The top shelf is a full shelf, however all of the lower shelves are divided. I truly love it.

Had the same issue. I just found the edges of the stud and made sure both screws weren't to close to the edges.

No. I had wondered the same thing but it is designed to only put together with the shelf to the left. It is a nice unit and it fits perfectly in a small space.

They have little black rubber spaces that hold the shelves in place. This prevents the shelves from coming off the brackets.

The cabinet has one horizontal shelf divider, creating two shelves in effect

My husband put it together, and it did not take him long, but on one side he did not put the shelf in correctly. Once he put it in he could not takeit apart.

There are 2 legs that need to be screwed in to the shelf. Adjust the legs so the shelf will lay flat.

Not 100% sure, but you may have installed the shelf backwards. The instructions for this thing are not clear at all. See if maybe the side panels were put in backwards too.
