These shelves are working well so far. Installed them almost a week ago, so only just began using them for real a couple days ago; we used the glued install option, which requires 72 hours after install before putting weight on them.
Install was relatively simple. The small tubes of glue included were just enough to adhere the shelves (used one tube per shelf, as provided). The glue tubes require some pretty good finger strength to squeeze all the glue out, though. They pretty much self-level during installation by the nature of the size of the side walls and being installed in a corner, which makes it hard to mess up.
Construction is pretty simple on these; the base is actually not attached to the side rails; it rides in a slot cut into the walls, similar to the construction of a conventional drawer. This means they make a bit of a clink sound when setting something on them, but nothing to worry about, and not really noticeable in actual use.
I went ahead and added a line of silicon caulk along the top edges and in the pre-drilled mounting holes to discourage water getting in and getting trapped in pockets of the glue between the wall and the shelves. I also tried to prevent water being caught by applying the glue in vertical lines during the install.
All in all these should work nicely. I wish they were offered in slightly smaller overall sizes, as they take up a bit more space in our small shower than I would prefer. Regardless, I’m sure these will last quite some time, easily long enough until we are ready to redo the shower tile.
