Product Information
Full details
This VidaXL wall shelf set is designed for homeowners looking to enhance their interior storage and aesthetics with a practical, decorative solution. The key benefit is maximizing wall space for displaying items like plants, books, or ornaments, adding a fresh and glamorous atmosphere to any room. A potential caveat is that the shelves are constructed from MDF, which requires careful handling and placement to ensure longevity. This pack includes two white MDF shelves, each measuring 400mm wide, 90mm deep, and 30mm high, offering a simple yet effective way to declutter and style your living space.

FAQs
What material are the shelves made of?
The shelves are made of Medium-Density Fibreboard (MDF).
What are the dimensions of each shelf?
Each shelf measures 400 mm in width, 90 mm in depth, and 30 mm in height.
How many shelves are included in a pack?
Each pack contains 2 shelves.
What is the colour of the shelves?
The shelves are white.
Can I place heavy books on these shelves?
While the shelves are sturdy, their weight capacity depends on the mounting hardware used and the wall structure. For heavy items, ensure you use robust wall fixings and distribute the weight evenly across the shelf.
Do mounting screws and wall plugs come with the shelves?
Mounting hardware such as screws and wall plugs are typically not included, as the appropriate type depends on your specific wall material. You will need to purchase these separately.
How should I clean the shelves?
Clean the shelves with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive moisture.
Troubleshooting
Shelf is wobbly or unstable.
Ensure the mounting screws are fully tightened into the wall. Check that appropriate wall plugs were used for your wall type and that they are securely in place. Redistribute items on the shelf to ensure weight is balanced.
MDF material appears to be swelling or warping.
This is likely due to excessive moisture. Remove items, allow the shelf to dry completely in a well-ventilated area, and ensure no liquids are spilled on it in the future. Avoid use in high-humidity environments like steamy bathrooms without proper ventilation.
Mounting holes are not aligned or shelf does not sit flush.
Double-check your measurements and drilling accuracy. Ensure you are using the correct mounting hardware for the shelf and wall type. Sometimes, minor adjustments to hole placement might be necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Gather Tools: You will need appropriate wall mounting hardware (screws and wall plugs, not typically included) suitable for your wall type (e.g., drywall, plaster, brick) and a drill.
- Mark Placement: Decide on the desired location for your shelves. Use a level to ensure they are straight and mark the drilling points.
- Drill Holes: Drill holes at the marked points, inserting wall plugs if necessary.
- Attach Shelves: Secure the shelves to the wall using the appropriate screws through the pre-drilled holes or mounting brackets (depending on the specific shelf design, which may require separate brackets not always included).
Compatibility:
- These shelves are designed for mounting on most standard interior walls.
- Ensure the wall structure can support the weight of the shelves plus the items placed on them.
Care:
- Clean the shelves regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, as this can damage the MDF material.
- Wipe up any spills immediately to prevent absorption into the material.
