I don't like my kitchen shelf studs

[aveatry]

Its a B&Q kitchen and the shelf supports don't seem to want to sit nice they start at an angle and you are suppose to bang on the shelf to get the ridges to bite into the hole and also at the same time there are 3 spikes that suppose to dig into the shelf - which they do not do very well and mark the shelf although you can not see it.
Its all a bit rubbish, looking at just getting different ones but most I have seen have a little lip at the top which would not work for me as my shelves are a tight fit.

They are a little bit ugly I think but not so bad if the shelf has the slot in them.

The supports work perfectly fine.

The three little pins under the shelf will bed themselves in overtime when you start loading the shelves.

Personally, when I look in a cupboard for something, I'm not looking at the shelf supports.

Quite like the look of the toolstation ones

Ok update- I brought the toolstation ones and think they are much better, they sit nice and have a bigger surface area to hold the shelf and I think they look smart too. The holes I have tried them in feel nice and snug.

Lovely, enjoy.

Before you can load the cupboard with festive goodies, you gotta get the shelves looking smart and well-supported!
