Product Reviews for:

I am a tough customer to please. I am constantly accused of being OCD. Simply put, this piece is top-quality. It looks like an $800 book shelf. It has very deep shelves, and is about 7+ feet tall. I'm 6' 1", and used to being able to see the tops of furniture. It's very nice to have such a quality piece. Every part of it is wood, down to the backdrop (the backdrop is about a centimeter thick or so, but is solid wood). VERY heavy, and just quality. Thank you overstock! By the way...I bought the plymouth desk to accompany this bookshelf. They look excellent together! Top-notch.

Once it's put together, this is a sturdy and very stylish piece of furniture. The assembly process isn't difficult, just a bit tedious. It took me about an hour to put the bookcase together. Just be careful to make sure to pound the pieces together snugly before you twist the lock nuts. If you don't, small gaps will remain between pieces that could affect the stability. It would also be a good idea to have a second person to help, since these big boys weigh about 140 pounds when built. Overall, this is an excellent product and a good value. As always, the Overstock delivery service is quick and the packaging leaves you with enough foam and cardboard to build a weekend retreat.

This bookshelf is a sturdy, attractive piece with huge space (my tallest books can stand up) between shelves. They are also quite deep. It took me and one friend about an hour to put together. It is heavy and takes two people to move the boxes and to stand up.

I ordered two bookcases, which arrived very quickly and intact as has been my usual experience with Overstock orders. These are large, heavy bookcases. They are solid, and the finish is beautiful. It is the darkest brown, and it blends with the black-finish furniture also in my study. They really look black unless the sunlight is on them, when you can see the brown come through. Not difficult to put together, and they really don't look like furniture that we assembled at home! I've come to expect strong chemical smells from imported home-assembled furniture, but these bookcases had none so we were pleasantly surprised. Nice, tall, solid bookcases that look like they came from a fine furniture store, and the style will blend with anything from modern to traditional. I'm thinking of ordering one or two more!

Arrived quick, no damages, pretty easy to put together but did take about an hour. It looks great, is very solid, and it's huge - which is exactly what I wanted.

This bookcase is very solid and heavy, so, as recommended, 2 people (at times) made it easier to put together. The instuctions were clear, extra hardware was included, everything was easypeasy to assemble. The result is a large, attractive bookcase that, for me, was a catalyst to reconfigure a useless room into an inviting one. Thank you, Overstock!

I was very please with my purchase of this bookcase. It is very spacious, well made and solid. It is very affordable compared to other bookcases that are comparable in quality. I am hoping to purchase an additional one in the near future.

We bought two of these bookcases for our office and love them. They are very solid and well constructed, especially for the price. We had been looking at other products in a similar price range and these are far nicer. Agree with other reviewers that this is a two man job - especially for the back with it's 20+ screws. The first bookcase definitely took a while, but once we had the pictures figured out the second was a breeze.

These dark rubberwood bookshelves are sturdy, tall, and handsome. The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it's a bear to put together. We bought 5 of these then 4 more so assembling the first one was tough, but then it was easier after that. If you can't afford built-in bookshelves but like the look of substantial furniture, I'd recommend purchasing these. We live in a state famous for furniture making, but the industry has taken a licking during the economic slump and has just recently started rebounding. It's a chore to find solid wood furniture that's affordable so I'd recommend you buy these while you can.

Beautiful bookcase for the price. The bookcase came in 2 boxes, well packed. I assembled my self in a few hours, but I would recommend help. Highly recommended!

This is really really sturdy, solid wood and a beautiful stain. The design is sleek too with the top panel and the nice end pieces. It was a bit hard to put together but no more difficult than any other furniture I've bought online. This could be built with one person alone. It really looks gorgeous in my modern room.

Very solid, sturdy, easy to put together. Great looking. The rubberwood with Espresso finish is stylish. This will last a lot longer than cheaper compressed board/veneer type shelves.

great bookshelf - sturdy and looks great. not cheap, but worth it

This is a solid, big, heavy, good-looking piece of furniture. The finish seems good and coverage consistent. The product was well packaged. Recyclers may be dismayed at the amount of packaging, most of it styrofoam. It must be assembled and instructions are minimal, so experience with cam-style construction is helpful. Two people are recommended for assembly. The pieces lined up well and pre-drilled components were well engineered to fit together.

I bought 3 bookcases, attached them to each other then mounted them to the wall. They look great and the 3 of them hold nearly 500 hardback books. They were easy to put together with 2 people. Only complaint is I wish they came with the mounting hardware.

I needed another bookcase to house my growing collection of first editions and signed first editions, and one that would be compatible with my other furnishings. This one met the need, and the price was right. The men who assembled and moved it into place for me thought it was of very good quality.
