It seems that only the bottom shelf would have the oldest cans, if you're placing the newest ones on the top shelf to roll down. Is that right?

That is right. That is what makes the system great, it uses oldest first then keeps cans rotating down in order.

You are correct as long as the new cans that you are adding are not stamped as older.

No they are not. We easily stacked a older (thicker) DVD/VHS combo and a satellite box on top of each other. There was still ample room above with out making them "squeeze" in there. This on on the second shelf. As answered below, there is more room on the bottom shelf.

yes, there are small tabs on the side which you push in to separate the top roller from bottom, then then easily mount bottom on shelf

Nope, I just push the new can in from the front. The others just roll back. No problem.

If stacked on their sides, the cans can be set up to roll forward when the front can is removed. (Transverse rails which separate the rows of cans are moveable/adjustable; and if adjusted tightly against the can row are capable of preventing forward movement.) The design is flexible, in that (depending upon size) cans can be stacked, rather than placed sideways in rows; stacked cans usually will not move forward.

No. The shelves are attached to the sides. The sides fold and have attachments for the shelves to rest into.

wondered that myself,have only used them on the bottom shelf. let me know if you find out.

The top shelf tends to bend with the weight of 3 pairs of shoes and might make the side boards bend inwards without the middle shelf making the sides straight. I ended up buying 2 units and removed the top shelf of one and put the other complete one on top of that. Either way, I don't put too much because of the shelf bending from the weight. Hope this helps.

I put 15 Oz cans on the 2 bottom shelf and put the bigger cans on the top , but I put mine on a big shelf , so depends on how much room you have for the top shelf. Some one else put mine together. So don't know if it is adjustable or not. It works for me.

No. But the shelves can slide in the supports about an inch in either direction. So if the supports are installed level with each other it would be a long continuous shelf. You could use cable ties to keep the shelves in contact with one another once installed.

Usually those are pretty light, so I would say yes! It is a pretty heavy piece itself - a lot heavier than your typical folding shelf.

Depending on surface you are rolling the Origami the wheels may be too small. Albeit, if it is smooth concrete and the loads not too heavy you shouldn't have a problem. Keeping the heavy items on the bottom shelf plays a part as well.

No. Sorry. The shelves are stationary. They are welded in place, which makes the unit sturdy, but not flexible.

Yes, there are peg holes up and down each side so you can put the pegs that the shelves rest on anywhere you choose. Some of mine are adjusted for dvdsand others are sized for vhs tapes. It's your choice. That's why I love these units so much. They are also smart looking and very sturdy. I highly recommend them.

They fold up for storage. However, with the dust collection hood in place the rear shelf will not fold up. I have mine bolted down to a shop made rolling cart. I fold up the front but leave the back down since I leave the dust hood attached.

I have wire shelves and it does fine on them. I just have the can on the bottom shelf because I don't want my shelves to be top heavy.

My two lowest shelves are full of hardbound textbooks and binders full of papers. The next two hold normal sized hardbound books and the top shelf is full of CDs and DVDs. As long as you put the heaviest on the bottom, I don't think you will have any problems. The whole unit might be light when empty, but it can really hold a lot without sagging.
