Santiago explained thw maths, based on claret bottles, fizz and burgs take
up more space.

with claret i can get rows of 5,then six on top then five on top of those
and repeated head to tail deep

16 x 2 = 32 per shelf x 7 =224 per cabinet, thats claret, less for fizz and
burgs.

the shelves are made of thick steel and they do bow a little with a full
load.

I am a very happy customer and find emptying and refilling every year a
pleasant exercise for a wet and cold day
