Garden Tool Organizer - Utility Rack, Holds Yard Tools - Garage Organizers and Storage Home Essentials by Stalwart - 40 Yard Tools, UNIT

First, this is a great product FOR MY NEEDS. Everyone’s organization needs are different and for what I needed this product was perfect, to include the price. It is exactly as pictured, including the size. It holds 10 tools with long handles and approximately 5 additional small tools if you use the middle section and sides. Is that what you need? In addition, it is not overly sturdy so if you have heavy tools you want to store in an organizer, this is NOT the organizer for you. Medium to light weight stuff is fine though. Made my space much tidier, and I am able to get everything out and back in the storage space easily.

I was actually looking for a heavy metal garden cart/trolley, but it seems no one makes them any more - or I don't know where to look. All I could find were instructions on how to build my own - that required welding equipment - and plastic, some of them very dear indeed, so after reading the reviews I got two of these, one for "in" brooms mops etc and one for "out" rakes, shovels, trimmers and so on. These were reasonably priced and an appropriate size and tall enough to actually hold up long handles, many of the other racks were way too short to actually keep the handles upright. These will serve until I can find my metal ones, or I take up welding (grin).They are as expected, plastic and therefore due to the nature of plastic, they are flimsy and over time the plastic will become brittle and will warp and shatter. That said, they will serve their purpose - to tidy up the broom closet and the tool shed, and keep the long handle items corralled and more orderly.The instructions are minimal, and it is not clear which is "front" and "back" unless you study the Amazon picture, or until you get it assembled (wrong in my case) but it comes back apart fairly easily (is that a good thing?). The "front" is the tray side of the bottom and the u-shaped holders on the top. This allows you to store heavy, thick handled items with the business end down in the u-shaped holders- shovels, garden rakes, street brooms, dust mops... As the heavy ends of these items are down and sitting in the tray. it keeps the holder stable and prevents tipping. This rack is not heavy enough or sturdy enough to store heavy shovels and rakes with the business end up, it will tip and fall and would be very dangerous! My "push firmly" wasn't sufficient to get the supports to "snap" in place (per instructions), I found a rubber mallet helpful. I wouldn't use a regular hammer as this is after all plastic, and might break.It has wheels on one end and a grip on the other so you can lift up and roll it. This is not intended to be rolled around the yard, just making it easier to shift its location a bit. It has holes on the back side in both the top and bottom sections so that it can be bolted to a wall to make it more stable. It is clear that "40 tools" counts all your little hand tools - rose shears, clippers, feather dusters, gloves, and does not mean 40 shovels and brooms. There are 5 "large" u-shaped long handle holders, and 5 "small" o-shaped long handle holders for long handled dusters, light bulb changers, fan blade cleaners and the like, and 4 tiny round holes - my feather duster is in one of these. In my case my electric edger fits in one of the u-shaped holders but the grip sticks out and covers the next u-shape holder, so I only have 4 available, so look at your tools handles to figure out how many of your items this will actually hold. This is exactly what I thought I was getting, and it will work for now, but not forever, but it is much better than the cardboard wardrobe moving boxes I have been using, so I am very happy.

the product was easily assembled but does feel a bit less sturdy as plastic is wont to do. So far, however, it is holding up well with my brooms and mops as I only need it on the covered porch. I may invest in some more for other places and usages. I would still recommend this for the value to hold lighter weight containment.

I think that's the question that needs to be asked, as this is the classic type of item where folks who are looking to buy one are going to have a very large range of expectations.My expectations weren't high. I just need some kind of rack, one that doesn't mount to the wall, where I can store my large tools in a way that will save a little bit of space. Prior to buying the rack, all of my large tools were just kind of in the corner propped up against the wall or on a shelf adjacent to that corner. I would say that my tools were taking about 1/4 of my available storage space. The two benefits of this rack that I will definitely make use of are 1) my weedeater actually fits, though barely and 2) there is just enough space beside the rack to put my ladders.In other words, this unit really did save me space, and it makes it easier to access the tools because they are not stacked on top of each other. However, there are some legitimate concerns voiced by other reviewers.The plastic does not seem to be very durable. The plastic shelf and base seem to be kind of middle-of-the-road. It's very lightweight, but also about a 5 or a 6 on the durability scale. Those two parts will probably fare okay for the long haul as long as they aren't exposed to direct sunlight. The support poles, though, are a different matter altogether. I had concerns that they would be strong enough for me to set them into place during assembly. I was very careful and ended up using a mallet instead of putting my weight on it.The wheels are pointless. If you're looking to use this as a mobile tool rack, look elsewhere. I could see this being okay if you are wheeling around hand tools, but if there is any weight whatsoever on the rack, you'll be better off moving your tools one at a time. Dead serious. That's the one big tip I have for the manufacturer. Get rid of the wheels and knock a buck or two off the price.The organization of the slots could be better. This unit works great for holding my large tools. It currently holes a shovel, a rake, a thatcher, a sod plugger, a tamper, a weedeater, and a few other odds and ends. I have concerns about the weight of the tamper, but it does okay with these items. The items it doesn't hold well include things like garden shears, a lopper, a pruner, and the like. In other words, most hand tools are not well suited for this rack, and I was really hoping that this would help provide a solution for those tools that are just slightly too big for a tool box.This is going to meet my needs. It's in a closet, so there is no exposure to the sun. I intend to keep it stationary, and I was able to free up room in my closet to store other things. My review is based more on my expectations combined with what I feel most folks will use this for.Would I buy this again? Let's just say I'd shop around again first.

Just the right size for my few rakes and shovels

Love this thing! Not super sturdy with taller items, but works beautifully to hold everything
