What a crap idea........put the smallest object on them and within a week they are pointing towards the floor and nothing will sit on them

Probably one of the crappiest ideas i've ever encountered ....................
So i can keep on an even keel this year i've decided to remove all Floating Shelves from my life .......Happy 2015

May I be so bold as to ask where these "floating shelves" came from?. A small Swedish company perhaps? I've made and installed them myself in customers homes and they were rock solid.

Waste of time

When they droop I tried turning the bracket, still crap

He was probably standing on them to reach the work tops.

I mounted them a couple of foot of the floor to be sure
I'm sure the taller brigade must be using them as ladder rungs that's why they are drooping

Hey guys, this was a floating shelves moan, just cos I'm vertically challenged there's no need to shout about it..... By the way, What's the weather like up there today ?
