Question 1

Will this rack wobble when fully extended to 200 cm? I keep seeing complaints about it being shaky.**

Accepted Answer

It’s a valid concern. Many users find the rack sturdy at the standard 160 cm width, but extending to the maximum 200 cm does reduce stability—especially with heavier items like winter coats. We recommend keeping the rail partially retracted for heavy loads, or using the middle as a lighter section for shirts. If you’re planning to fill it with 50+ kg at full extension, a center support accessory (not included) might be worth considering.

Question 2

Is assembly really as easy as advertised? Some TikTok videos show two people struggling.**

Accepted Answer

For most people, the assembly takes about 20–30 minutes. The telescoping mechanism is straightforward, but aligning the extendable tubes does go much smoother with a second set of hands. If you’re assembling solo, lay the tubes on the floor and slide them to your desired length before attaching the legs. No power tools are needed—just the included hex key. Plan for a helper if you’re not comfortable with manual alignment.

Question 3

I’m 170 cm tall—will this rack hold floor-length dresses without dragging? The height is 161.5 cm.**

Accepted Answer

The total height of 161.5 cm is measured from the floor to the top of the rail. For floor-length dresses, you’ll have roughly 155 cm of clearance from the rail to the floor (allowing for hanger hooks). That works well for dresses hemmed at ankle length, but if you wear 175+ cm gowns or maxi dresses with long trains, they will likely brush the ground. It’s best for midi, knee-length, and full-length garments up to about 145 cm in finished length.

Question 4

The wheels stopped locking on mine after a few months—any fix, or is that common?**

Accepted Answer

It’s one of the more frequent issues we see in reviews. The locking casters can loosen over time, especially on carpet or if the rack is frequently moved. A temporary fix: tighten the wheel mounting nuts with a wrench (some users add a drop of thread-locker). If the brakes fail permanently within the warranty period, contact SONGMICS support—they have a reputation for sending replacement caster sets. For daily heavy use, consider upgrading to locking casters from a hardware store (standard 50mm size).

Question 5

Is this rack truly heavy duty? I need it for my small boutique, loading about 80 kg of clothing regularly.**

Accepted Answer

The rack’s steel frame and 150 kg load capacity are tested under static, evenly distributed weight. For a boutique with 80 kg of varied garments (including denim and heavy fabrics), it performs well—provided you keep the rails not fully extended. Many boutique owners on Reddit report using this model for 6–12 months without issues. However, if you’re loading it with dense, heavy items daily and rolling it across uneven floors, you may eventually see mild bowing in the center. A welded steel rack or one with cross-bracing would be more suited for truly industrial use. For light-to-moderate commercial use (up to 100 kg), this is a very good value.
