This would be an excellent piece except for one thing... It's VERY flimsy and unstable.. It frustrates me because of this.. If you try to pull out a dvd, you'd better be holding the thing in place or you might spill some Dvd's. They don't fit neatly nor snug onto the base.. they easily slip into the big empty space of the base, and then you have to reposition it and hope to not make the others slip in the process. Definitely put it somewhere where nothing is going to bump into it because if it does, it will tip over. I bought this because it looked very nice.. and it DOES look very nice. It's looks high quality.. but it's not actually high quality. The black plastic parts are very thin and not very sturdy. As soon as you finish building it you will wonder if it's going to hold the weight of the DVD's.. It does hold though.. doesn't look like it's going to fall apart any time soon.. but it just might fall. I would value it at around $15, but that being said most DVD racks are expensive for some reason. So if you're just looking for a quick and cheap fix for your DVD mess this is a good choice. It's great for eyes, not architecturally sound.
