This is a sturdy bookcase. Liked that the bottom shelves are deeper than the upper shelves. A little challenging to assemble but totally worth it!

Quality Bookcase

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am always hesitant to buy furniture that I have to assemble on my own however I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised when I received this bookcase. First the assembly was much easier than I anticipated as the instructions are fairly straightforward and easy to follow. Second I was amazed at just how solid and unyielding it is once assembled. Be prepared this bookcase is quite heavy and will be a challenge to most to construct and move on your own. It comes with adjustable legs for uneven surfaces and a wall attachment to prevent tipping. It is an attractive addition to almost any office and the white color goes well with almost any other furniture colors. There is ample space for most book collections or accent pieces. The only issue I have is that the shelves are not easily adjustable as you need to unscrew the shelf standards to adjust which is not a deal breaker but can be tedious. Overall I am happy with the quality of this bookcase and would recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have this bookcase in my dining room. The assembly was fairly easy although a bit tedious as you could expect. Very heavy box. The bookshelf is made from I believe particle board. The quality is decent. It looks nice with decorative accents and dresses it up a bit. It probably won`t `last forever` because of the material it`s made of but it`s a decent piece of furniture for probably 3-5 years.

We love our very sturdy new bookcase. We are using it to store things (not as a bookcase). It was surprisingly easy to assemble. All parts were included (nothing missing) the predrilled holes matched up anchors screwed into boards easily and the picture instructions were pretty good. Even the few things we did wrong the first time were easy to disassemble and correct. I give this product a high recommendation!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very sturdy and attractive bookcase for any room. Great for anytime of decor you like using for books or toys or any pretty decorations you like. Very easy to put together I would suggest two people because it is heavy which is great but easier for two people. very happy with product and that I got to test this product for free.
