These are on sale for 15quid at Go outdoors atm. Does anyone know if they come in a bag? Went to have a look in store, but they were in sealed cardboard boxes. I would like to avoid having lots of little bits to carry around ideally!

We've got one - two shelves and a canvas top which you can use to put stuff on.

Only used it once so far , but we put all our clothes into it and it was perfect. We've bought the slight bigger Elite cupboard from GO now so we can use this one for food storage in the porch/kitchen.

For £15 you can't really go wrong..

We have one of these, which we use as a kitchen cupboard. It has plenty of storage space, very easy to erect and sturdy.

If it were me I`d pay the extra £15 and get one.

This will have to built each time. Easier to get the one recommended by griff10553 or cindy007 as they are quick and easy to assemble

I too can recommend the 3 shelf elite. There are boards to strengthen the shelves, with a sturdy clip on/off table top. Two velcro straps for keeping it all nice and taught. Ideal for a larder/work top, and folds up in a thrice!!

Friends have the four shelf and are equally happy with theirs..... they don't take more food than us, they just spread it out more!!

Oh, btw..... the elite's come in a bag,defo*

*If purchasing from shop, take contents from bag,visually check for faults, then return contents to bag...... Our table top had two (vital) rivets missing, and had to return to shop to exchange. We had no problem with the exchange, but as always, whilst there, we just had a browse...... and browsing costs!!!!!
