What is the shelf made of? Will it melt with a hot curling iron?

No it doesn't melt it is hard plastic I put my 425 degree straightener in it right after using it and haven't ever had a problem

Not sure what the material is, but it's like a hard plastic. In the product description is says its guaranteed not to melt. I have had not problems with it and always stow my hot flat iron right away.

Nylon. Heat resistant to over 550 degrees. We guarantee that you won't melt it.

I have two. The back is aluminum and the shelves are glass. They are very nice, by the way. The price is right too. They have a very nice cord management system. Once you put it together, you don't take it back apart, lol

Don't think so - at least, we don't. The wires are covered with some sort of soft plastic, which I believe would melt, if not burn outright. We cool the iron then put it in the rack. Bit of a hassle, but I wouldn't want to put a hot iron that close to a drywall wall even if the rack could take it.

this is made with a hard type plastic. it would most likely melt. seems like an metal insert for steaming (or basket) may work. I hope you find what you need :)

I am very familiar with this product. Any kitchen appliance could easily and safely be stored and used on this shelving. Powder paint is a heat activated finished that is used on it, and you will find that it is very durable and heat, as well nick resistant.

Hi Martha, This piece is constructed of pressed wood, something I used to call particle board. Every exposed surface is covered with a synthetic wood finish, and the shelves are covered on every surface. The back is a tempered paper-based material like peg board, but of course, without the holes. I think it might be called "masonite". The holes for the shelves are too far apart causing a waste of vertical space because I can't put the shelves at an optimum location. I had to drill extra holes to solve that issue. The center shelf, however, is fixed in its location. As I said in my review, the doors should have been hinged instead of sliders, eliminating the difficult to access space in the middle of each shelf. Overall, the fully assembled unit is very sturdy. The only cheap feel is the rollers on which the doors move. The doors do not "glide", rather, it feels like a slightly bumpy ride for them. They do not stick and are not difficult to move, just a little feeling of cheapness. I hope that helps you. Lanny

There is no stainless steel. Shame on Amazon and SH for shady marketing. The shelves are mild steel wire that's plated in chrome (mild steel; not stainless steel). The pole is aluminum.

The shiny part is magnetic and gets pretty hot. If it touches plastic, it might melt it.Sounds like you may be better off using something like a hair dryer.

Thanks for your inquiry. The pillars are made of steel covered in a smooth chrome powder coat, and the shelves are constructed from melamine. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

I do not believe so. besides it is very small. I feel it would melt. I got it for my wife;s make up table so she can temporally place a iron down for a short time.

The shelves are in two pieces that fit to gather to make each shelve and they are made of metal . Their a bit tricky to put to gather , but their very sturdy when assembled.

Only part of it is solid wood. Not sure what the rest is made of. Bottom two shelves are faily thin and not a good idea to put anything very heavy on. I have it against a wall in the front room to display photos and a sensi scent thing.

I am not sure what it is made out of but I am satisfied with it. It is durable and is a nice shelf stand.

Yes, just as you see it in the pic! However, be prepared to replace the shelf liners, they are not at all sturdy, and they are a bit brittle.

Hard to say, really. Nothing I put in there ever melted, even some plastic stuff, but I'd recommend keeping the books well apart from any clothes etc just in case. Also, I found that even though plastic held up OK, it gave off quite a strong chemical smell under heat - you'll want to ventilate the room well so as not to breathe all that in.

The shelf pins are like little metal rods (not those plastic clips!) We cut a slot for the wires of our cable box to fit through the back, which is made of card board but it is not flimsy and is made to match the color of the unit. The entire shelf unit is very sturdy and I am very satisfied with this item!

Yes this product has the typical white plastic coating that coats most wire type shelving or other storage products. I guess by the time I store my curling iron it must be cool enough as I haven't seen any burn marks.
