FLEXIMOUNTS vs WMEEII Wall Storage Racks: 660 lb vs 900 lb Stated, Wall Rules Differ
Affiliate disclosure: As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. Links on this page use our homeshelving-20 tracking tag.
Short answer: FLEXIMOUNTS suits a buyer with wood studs who wants two 3-foot shelves, listed at up to 900 lb total. WMEEII suits concrete or brick walls and a folding 6-foot shelf, listed at 660 lb total.
Anyone comparing fleximounts vs wmeeii wall mounted storage rack options must match a 72-inch wall run to the wall it hangs on. This page sets out each listing’s stated size, load, steel and wall requirements, captured 2026-10-28. It does not rank them.
Quick answer
- Pick FLEXIMOUNTS if your wall has wood studs at 16, 18 or 24 inches, and you want two separate 3-foot shelves rather than one continuous shelf.
- Pick WMEEII if your wall is concrete or brick, or you want a shelf that folds flat against the wall. The listing says it folds and splits into two 36-inch sections.
- The FLEXIMOUNTS listing gives two load figures that do not match: up to 900 lb total in a bullet, and 600 lb per shelf for the 1 x 6 ft variant in its comparison table.
- Neither listing states an anti-tip device.
Comparison at a glance
The table includes only the columns that both listings state. Each cell follows the listing’s own wording.
| Feature (as the listing states it) | FLEXIMOUNTS 2-pack (B01LS016SK) | WMEEII folding shelf (B0GXFGKHFQ) |
|---|---|---|
| Dimensions (D x W x H) | 12 in x 72 in x 6.1 in | 23 in x 72 in x 11.42 in (a bullet says 11 in high) |
| Number of shelves | 2 (2-pack, each 1 x 3 ft) | 1 continuous shelf that splits into two 36-inch sections |
| Material | Heavy gauge steel | 6.0 mm carbon steel wire mesh |
| Finish and color | Powder coated, black | Powder coated, black |
| Mounting and shelf type | Wall mount; floating shelf | Wall mount; floating shelf |
| Weight capacity | Up to 900 lb total (bullet); 600 lb per shelf for the 1 x 6 ft variant (comparison table) | 660 lb total; 330 lb per section (bullet) |
| Wall types stated | Wood studs at 16, 18 or 24 in; not for metal walls | Concrete or brick; 18 in or 24 in stud spacing; not for metal studs or hollow drywall |
The two listings are not directly comparable on load, because FLEXIMOUNTS states a total and a per-shelf figure while WMEEII states a total and a per-section figure. Both are shown as printed.

How we chose this pair
This pair comes from row 5 of the home-shelving-guide.com comparison list dated 2026-10-28. The research file for wall-mounted storage racks holds five listings from one Amazon search, read on 2026-10-28, plus one listing reused from an earlier file. These two are the pair for this post. The other listings are not compared here: ThreeHio 3-pack (B0GX6D12NL), Fixwal wire-frame shelves (B09M869Z86) and VEVOR 3-tier wall shelving (B0GJJ473MT). Tool organizers and lumber racks in the same results were left out because they are not general shelving.
Both listings are compared only on the figures they state. Price, star ratings, review counts and badges are outside this comparison, and the research file did not record them. The comparison does not rank the two products.
What we could not verify
- Anti-tip device for either product: not stated in either listing.
- How either shelf holds its load once fixed to a wall. The two listings are the only sources here, and neither covers load behavior in use.
- Which load figure FLEXIMOUNTS intends. The bullet says up to 900 lb total, and the table says 600 lb per shelf for the 1 x 6 ft variant. The listing does not explain the difference.
- The WMEEII height. The details field says 11.42 in and a bullet says 11 in.
- Whether either wall requirement matches your wall. Stud and masonry details come from the listings and are not checked against a building code.
- Any finish or color besides black. Both listings give black only.
Buying checklist
- Identify the wall. Wood studs point toward FLEXIMOUNTS. Concrete or brick points toward WMEEII. Hollow drywall rules out both.
- Locate the studs. FLEXIMOUNTS lists 16, 18 or 24 inches. WMEEII lists 18 or 24 inches only, so a 16-inch stud layout does not match its listing.
- Decide between two separate 3-foot shelves and one 6-foot shelf that splits into two 36-inch sections.
- Check the depth. FLEXIMOUNTS is listed at 12 inches deep, and WMEEII at 23 inches deep. Measure how far the shelf can stand off the wall before you buy.
- Compare the load figures on the same basis. FLEXIMOUNTS lists 600 lb per shelf for the 1 x 6 ft variant. WMEEII lists 330 lb per section.
- Check the hardware list on the live page. The two listings name different parts.
- Plan your own anchoring for anti-tip, because neither listing states a device.
Mistakes to avoid
- Do not mount either shelf to hollow drywall. The WMEEII listing excludes it directly, and the FLEXIMOUNTS listing names wood studs only.
- Do not read the 900 lb figure as a per-shelf rating for FLEXIMOUNTS. Its own table shows 600 lb per shelf for the 1 x 6 ft variant.
- Do not assume the 16-inch stud spacing works for WMEEII. Its listing names 18 and 24 inches.
- Do not expect a fold-down feature from FLEXIMOUNTS. Its listing does not describe a folding shelf, and the WMEEII listing does.
- Do not skip anchoring because a listing is silent on anti-tip. Neither listing states a device, so the gap is real.

Bottom line
Choose by your wall first. If you have wood studs and want two separate 3-foot shelves, the FLEXIMOUNTS listing fits that layout. If you have concrete or brick, or you want a shelf that folds flat, the WMEEII listing describes that.
