Still struggling to find a gift from in laws for Christmas and saw this thinking it could be useful to keep bikes tidy. Anyone used one?

I don't have that particular rack but I made one out of wood which uses pretty much the same design.

Originally I was planning on securing it to the wall but is pretty stable just free standing that I haven't bothered.

Does it work? does it fall over when someone brushes past it? should I attach it to the wall to be safe? Would I be happy to get it as a Christmas pressie?

Ta very much

It stands up fine without being attached - mine is on a wooden floor. I have attached mine to the wall though just incase. Holds 2 30lb bikes no problem. The steel is a bit 'monkey' but it works and does the job.
