Java Framingham Bookcase

Rating

The most difficult part of this purchase was watching the very slight deliveryman try to get it off the truck and into my apartment. It was two out of three but the bookcase finally made it in. I was pleasantly surprised with the weight and color or the unit. It has a real natural look. The unit itself is well balanced and solid. I did notice a slight stain odor when the unit was first unpacked. I am using it on a sideward position and it looks great under the window and holds just the right amount of nicknacks as to not look cluttered or overly nostaglic.

I am extremely disappointed with this bookshelf. For starters, when I opened the box and took out the items, I immediately realizing it was missing parts. They didn't provide me with enough screws or the back panels they show in the picture (and instructions). And for one reviewer who mentioned the parts being numbered, mine weren't. It wasn't hard to figure out, but still. They also showed some of the shelves (the cube shelves) in the instructions as already put together, but mine weren't. Then, as I started to assembly the shelf, I quickly realized a problem. The quality on this product is very poor. The grooves that you slide the shelves into don't line up correctly. I took it apart and retried several times to insure it wasn't me, but it's definitely this shelf. Toward the end of assembling, I couldn't even get the shelves in because they were too tall for where they needed to go. As a result, when it was completely put together, after some serious manipulating, the entire shelf leans and does not stand up on its own. I had to get really creative to make it work, since it would cost far too much to return. Very disappointing!! Save your money!!!

This was a great piece to add to my living room. It really allows for a more modern feel in the room. It was incredibly heavy in the package when it was delivered. It was left at my front door and my female petite self could hardly bring it through the door. Once it was in, I pulled it out of the box and it was a snap to put together. I did it in about 1 hour by myself. In regards to the sticker style screw covers, I have yet to have even my most critcal and particular person (my mother) mention anything about them. I would definitely recommend it to a friend and continue ordering from overstock.com.

I actually was lucky to get this piece as a birthday present. It weighs a ton and was delivered within one week to date of being ordered. Not sure what happened to the 3 days delivery but..... Here is the scoop guys if you are like me PAY SOMEONE TO PUT THIS TOGETHER so worth it. Truly takes approx 1 hour the good news is that each piece is numbered so if you are savy may be easy for you. However, it is an amazing piece it looks just like the photo and I recommend it highly. The only set back was that there were a few scratches and digs in the wood but not worth returning. Get a furniture stick it works magic. I love it and it is an excellent addition to my home. Well done Overstock.
