Think if it is anything lie mine, is just like a MDF material placed over the material shelves to give it support, we have 2. Use one for a wardrobe and 1 for the food. Ours do seem to hold alot of weight, but they are not from Argos so wouldn't like to say for definite. Try reading the reviews on the Argos website. Hope this helps
Just bought one this weekend so haven't used it yet but have had it erected to check it over and the hardboard shelving is about the best we've seen. Hubby has cut another piece of hardboard to put on the top to give an extra shelf (for the vase of flowers you understand) and the whole thing is extremely stable. Will be using it in the rain from Friday til Thurs next week at Woodhouse Farm, Winskley, near Ripon as there is a steam rally at nearby Newby Hall.
Wow how cool does that utility tent look with everything in it all neat and tidy? The larder looks pretty sturdy too. Getting excited now - just hope the weather stays reasonable for our hols....
Well we bought it yesterday and set it up in the living room and I have to say I'm very impressed! It seems very sturdy. Money well spent me-thinks....
