IMHO your main issue is in using MDF for the shelves. That stuff needs a
lot of support or it sags under its own weight, never mind any load. You
may need to run some wood strips edge-on underneath it as a minimum. The
best way would be to replace it with something like pine floorboard. More
expensive, but doesn't suffer as badly - especially over a distance like
that.
