Asking if this bookshelf is something you should buy is like asking if “The Dress” is blue and black…. The answer being… Of course! (And if you say otherwise then you need to go to the eye doctor pronto).

The assembly was easy to follow. The setup took a total of 45 minutes, max. The bookshelf itself is overall sturdy for its design. It is a smaller bookshelf and great when you are tight on space. It also adds a unique look compared to the boring typical bookshelves… yuck. Overall, I would definitely get another one.

Great Product , used in kids room for their books. It looks great . Very easy to assemble . I asked my 11 yr old to assemble this by him self by following the directions. He was able to complete 60% of that in just 7-8 mins. Rest was very easy and I helped him out to finish. Bookshelf has decent height and looks amazing. Material is of very high quality. Very sturdy and you can easily place it on carpet or floor. Very happy with my purchase and recommend this to all my fellow shoppers.

I got this bookshelf for my nursery room, and it was actually way nicer than I was expecting. It has really sturdy construction, and I love the distressed wood aesthetic. Assembly was breesy, since it had good instructions, and was clear about which way all the parts needed to be oriented. It also comes with all the tools required for assembly, which I appreciate. A nice feature is that it includes a porthole in the back of the lower cabinet to organize media cables. You can fit some pretty big books on here, but then it can get rather top-heavy, so you'll want to use the kit that they include to attach it to the wall so it doesn't tip over.

The instructions were pretty straightforward and didn't take long at all to put together. Everything was labeled to match the instructions. Didn't need any power tools whatsoever, what was included was more than enough to get it put together. The only thing I would have liked is for the rest of the shelves other than the top one to be longer, but it was still more than good enough as is for my needs.

Definitely a great alternative to traditional book shelves if you live in an apartment or dorm. Great storage capacity and very sturdy. The bottom shelves are a little on the small side, but overall it is great. Easy build.

Out of the box the instructions were easy to follow. The holes lined up without having to move the pieces around. Very good quality product with ample room for your books, cds, or other items. Very appealing to view ( the wife is very happy with it!). It seems to be very sturdy and will hold your heaviest if not your largest books. Overall, a very highly recommended product!

I purchased this shelf for my sitting room. It gave me a retro vibe and was a good compliment to my futon. When I first opened the box and read the instructions, I thought the assembly was going to be much more difficult than it was. I put the shelf together in less than an hour. I only wish it were a tad taller.

It is a pretty stylish product and looks nice, it took some effort to put it together. Unfortunately there are two holes for screws (for part #5 attached to part 1/2/3) misaligned and I managed to make it work without the two screws. Definitely some improvement is desired.

Update to 5 stars due to great communication and effort from the seller to fix the problem.
