I was a bit scared that this item didnt have a review, and that other, more expensive bookcases/display cabinets had some bad reviews. But it is much sturdier than I had imagined. I didn't need to secure it to the wall. Came in excellent condition and in only 5 days. The color is slightly darker than the picture. Easy to assemble, you might need more hands when installing the racks. Only thing you should pay attention to is the back bars and which side to use; it is not clearly stated in the manual. Having quite a bit of experience in this area (I assembled almost all the furniture in my house) I wasted a few minutes on the back panel. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a cheap contemporary display stand.
Overall happy with the shelf. Sturdy, contemporary look, fairly nice size but could be a bit taller. Assembly took some time, but was easy and it's good to have a second pair of hands to help. If you like the style of this shelf you shouldn't be disappointed!
I was looking for something a little different and this filled the bill wonderfully. Every one that has seen it has asked where I bought it. I am very happy with how fast it got to me and the ease of putting it together. It looks like it has always been in my livingroom.
This is actually a beautiful piece. It doesn't look cheap and it's sturdy. My son put it together and some of the tips earlier buyers shared helped quite a bit. Beware of some of the holes not being drilled through far enough though. The only thing I don't like about it is the vertical piece that comes right down the middle of the front of the shelf. Be aware that the shelves only can be arranged one way (I thought I could turn the unit around, but the back side is unfinished).
This thing is a bear to put together and I am handy with this. Let's just say, they made it as complicated as they could think to. This thing had assembly pieces I have never encountered on all the assembly required things I have ever gotten. Granted, some of the sturdiness might be because I think I missed ONE DOWEL on the top, and once I figured it out, I was NOT going back and undoing everything I had done. Maybe one day. In any case, the bookcase is just too unique and pretty to give it less than 4 stars. In fact, I'm getting another one right now since it's available again. I will probably just figure out a way to modify the first one I got to make it sturdier. Based on all the reviews of how sturdy it is, part of it was me missing that one dowel, but I know for a fact part of it is the damm unit they sent because some of the implanted pieces came out from each other...hard to explain, but I assure you it wasn't user error. Anywho, give it a shot, its an awesome piece. Just read the instructions carefully and have more patience than I did when you put it together so you don't miss a single dowel. Then you'll do great and love your bookcase.
A little over priced in my opinion, but its nice. It's a beast to put together, so leave yourself some space and time. You'll also need a buddy to help hold things as you screw bolts in. For some odd frustrating reason, they didn't "finish" the back piece of the bookshelf, its partical board looking. They should have done this. Regardless, I'm happy with it.
The bookshelf itself is alright. Doesn't look quite as classy as it does on the site, looks a little cheap. But assembly is required, and I followed all the directions to a T, and on the last step none of the screws fit. Literally tried to figure out everything, but just had to send it back. It was a big headache. I would try something else instead.
This was a SURPRISE birthday present for my daughter. Purchased and delivered in March. May4th at 2pm we opened to the box to assemble while my daughter was at work to SURPRISE her for her birthday. The description says 13 inches deep. BASED ON THAT I purchased this shelving unit so it would accommodate the tank sizes. 13 inches would have given the tank and extra inch so it would have fit perfectly. The shelves ARE NOT 13 inches deep but rather 11 inches deep! SURPRISE RUINED! She will be home in two hours I have NO time to go to store, purchase and assemble new shelves. Thanks a lot Overstock!
A very good looking product. Really appreciated by my children and friends. It has filled up a place in my house.
i like this stand a lot. it is a little darker, almost black, picture made it look lighter. i use this stand to display my doxie figurines and it is working out perfectly! very sturdy!
