I followed the previous reviews when deciding on this purchase. The bookcase is just as it looks in the picture. A dark cherrywood with lovely lines. Time consuming but not difficult for one female to put together. I loved putting my books away into this bookcase.

My husband and I were extremely pleased with this bookcase. We need a shorter bookcase to fit in my daughter's new room (giving her old room to a baby on the way) because we have a capecod style house. This bookcase looked beautiful and is very good quality. It is very safe for children too. (We've had bookcases where the shelves would slide right out.)

product was great. easy to put together. but arrived scratched and damaged. it took lots of touch up stain to even make it look decent. disappointed in the condition it was in. box didn't look damaged. looks like it left the factory in that shape.

The quality of the product received was less than desirable. There were several chips throughout the box of parts and one piece was actually broken. If it had arrived in tact, I still would have been disappointed in the finish but would have used them for a short time until I could find what I am looking for. The price matched the quality, yes, but the chips and breaks were more than I could work around.

I ordered two of these bookcases and I am really pleased with them. Another reviewer wrote how there was only brown in the stain and no cherry color, and that is an accurate description. They went together easily, the shelves are sufficiently deep to hold even very large books, and the units are nicely styled. My sister and I looked at hundreds of bookcases on line and decided on these. We are both delighted with the quality, appearance and workmanship.

Beautiful piece of furniture. Was so easy to put together and looks beautiful.

These arrived out of the package with scratches, nicks, and chunks missing out of the wood. Luckily the affected areas would not be seen because of the way I was using them. The backing of this bookcase that appears to be beadboard is actually a very thin flimsy piece of fake wood. They do the job for the office area but I am already saving for quality pieces and these will go straight in the garage sale!

This bookcase is inexpensive. Every else we shopped, they were 300.00 or more even for ones which were not all wood as this one is not. My only complaint is the color. We wanted a cherry bookcase as all the furniture in my son's bedroom is cherry. That was the one requirement along with 60 inches. In the picture, it looks cherry. The one we received, looks brown. We held it next to a very lightly tinged cherry, dark brown piece of furniture we own, but the bookshelf still looked brown. It looked brown in bright light and in a dark room. My husband and I don't see the cherry in it. I was very disappointed in that. We kept it anyway because we were shopped out. Just know, it is a brown bookcase. Looks nice assembled. Just wrong color.
