SONGMICS Dalten Collection LGR123BH01 5-Tier Metal Shelving Unit, Ink Black

If you need storage that uses height rather than much floor space, this SONGMICS rack is designed for a narrow footprint. Its five wire shelves can be repositioned, so the layout can suit items of different heights. The trade-off is its compact 30 x 30 cm shelf footprint: it is better suited to smaller household essentials than to wide objects. Assembly is required, although the fittings are designed for tool-free assembly.

Where it shines

At 30 x 30 x 121 cm, the Dalten Collection LGR123BH01 is a tall, slim storage unit for a kitchen corner, pantry, bathroom or other spot where floor space is limited. For example, it could keep jars, toiletries or small household items organised vertically instead of spread across a worktop or floor. The open wire design keeps the shelves ventilated, while the dense mesh is intended to help stop smaller items falling through.

Shelf height adjusts in 2.5 cm increments, which gives you some flexibility when arranging taller containers alongside shorter items. Each tier has a stated maximum static load of 50 kg, with a total maximum static load of 250 kg. These figures describe static capacity, so they should not be read as a guarantee for every combination of items or for moving the rack while loaded. A solid pick if you want several adjustable levels in a small footprint rather than a wider, lower storage unit.

What to know

The rack is made from steel with PP plastic connectors and has an Ink Black finish. Reinforced shelf edges are included in the design, and the adjustable feet are intended to help with stability on uneven floors and to prevent scratches. An anti-tip kit is also supplied to secure the unit to a wall, this matters particularly for a tall rack, so factor in whether you can use the kit where you plan to place it.

It weighs 3.8 kg and requires assembly. The tapered-lock construction, numbered parts and tool-free design are intended to make setup straightforward, but the product information does not guarantee that the manual will be in English. You may want to skip it if the items you need to store require broad shelf surfaces: each shelf measures 30 x 30 cm, so the narrow format is a real constraint, not just a space-saving advantage.

Tips for day-to-day use

Choose shelf heights around the items you plan to store before loading the rack, the 2.5 cm adjustment steps let you make a closer fit than fixed-level shelving. Keep heavier items within the stated per-tier and total static limits, and use the anti-tip kit to secure the unit to the wall. If the floor is uneven, the adjustable feet are intended to help the rack sit more steadily. For a more demanding storage setup with wide or bulky items, a larger shelving format may suit better, this model prioritises a small footprint and vertical organisation.

What to clarify

How much space does it take up? The listed dimensions are 30 x 30 x 121 cm, making it a tall unit with a compact base.

Can the shelves be repositioned? Yes. Their height can be adjusted in 2.5 cm increments to accommodate items of different heights.

What load can it support? The stated maximum static load is 50 kg per tier and 250 kg in total. These are static-load figures, rather than a description of how the rack performs when moved or loaded unevenly.

Is it worth it?

This rack makes most sense when the priority is to organise a small corner or narrow area with several adjustable levels. The combination of open mesh shelves, adjustable feet and an included anti-tip kit gives it practical details for everyday household storage, while the stated load limits suit heavier items only when weight is distributed within those limits. Its 30 x 30 cm shelves are the deciding point: choose it for compact vertical storage, not when you need generous space for large or wide belongings.
