recognised design classic from a recognised designer it appears in many design collections/museums
I try not to outsource my tastes - if I think something is ugly I don't want it in my house!
NickCJ-
You don't know enough about it for your opinion to be worth repeating IMHO. I was prepared to give your opinions some weight but you proved they're worthless because you don't understand how the system works which is a big part of its appeal and fundamental to the looks.
'try not to outsource my tastes' Fly in the face of informed opinion all you want mate. Expect a little friction though.

You have a lot of opinions for someone so badly informed about the subject.
They are fixed size 'bays' 66 and 90cm roughly. The steel is folded in such a way that it enhances the strength of the shelves and reduces the weight. The aluminium track allows you to 'join' bays together and can support all the weight of hundreds of records on 2 stainless steel pins.
I could go on but it's a recognised design classic from a recognised designer it appears in many design collections/museums. There have been films made about the system and the designer and it's sold well and holds it value over time. So your comments about it's qualities which turn out to be spectacularly badly informed are barely worth the time it takes to read them!
