Can this shelf be used in a bathroom or kitchen?

Troubleshooting
Shelf appears to be sagging
Ensure the wall brackets are securely fastened and that the shelf is properly seated on them. Verify that the weight of the displayed items does not exceed the shelf's recommended load capacity. Check that appropriate wall fixings for your wall type were used during installation.
Difficulty mounting the shelf securely
Confirm you are using wall anchors or screws appropriate for your wall material (e.g., plasterboard, brick, concrete). For plasterboard walls, locating wall studs for mounting is highly recommended. Consider using a stud finder if needed.
Wood finish seems uneven or blotchy
This is often a characteristic of natural wood and the finishing process for rustic items. Minor variations are normal. If the unevenness is significant, contact customer support.
