Great Bookcase for my theological library

Assembly instructions easy to follow. I actually purchased 2 for my study. These bookcases are very sturdy and tolerant of my heavy books. Highly recommend this model if you need horizontal case.

Disappointed.

It looks like the picture but it’s difficult to assemble. Putting together furniture is not new for me, sadly, but this was a PAIN. Half way through I wanted to return it, but because its particle board and heavy taking it apart would have been just as bad. Won’t make this mistake again.

Exactly what I was looking for

I've been looking for over a year in thrift stores, antique shops, garage sales for a horizontal bookcase. I'd really rather not have to buy new, but when I saw this, I decided to purchase. It is exactly what I was looking for. Assembly was straightforward and the instructions were clear. As the carton was too heavy for me to carry upstairs, I opened it and carried the pieces up and laid them in a different room, to inspect, inventory and organize. I assembled it by myself in the room I'm using it in. It took part of an afternoon ... the only tedious part was nailing on the backing. I love putting things together and this was no exception. There were exactly enough pieces of hardware and all the wood is solid and in good condition. The remainder of the afternoon I spent filling it, thereby emptying out two smaller bookcases which I then passed along to others.

I needed a nice big, but low, bookcase to put craft items. T

I store craft items to be used on it. It allows me to see what I have in once glance and frees up my work spac. e

Looks really nice and its sturdy

In a business office

Just what we needed!

Purchased for our son's room to display his ""treasures"". This shelf is the perfect size to accommodate all of his items with room to add. Arrived quickly & in perfect condition. My husband was able to put this together with ease. Shelf is very solid & is appealing.

My second Sauder purchase in two weeks

Full disclosure: I was enticed to make both purchases because of ""inflation buster"" sales. The cubby storage unit is a strong and sturdy piece of furniture. The prime oak has a very appealing rustic look - I had to double check to make sure that the cracks in the design were part of the design and not actual cracks. Like any of these cam-based assembly items, putting it together is going to take you a few hours and a fair amount of patience - it can be done by one person even though the finish product is about 100 lbs. I was pleased to see that all the component parts were well-packaged and the instructions were reasonably easy to follow. The only thing that may be a problem for some who are strictly using this as a bookshelf is that you can only use three of the four shelves for textbook size books due to the placement of the fixed shelf (one up from the bottom shelf) - The best I could do with the heights of the shelves were (from the top) 10"", 9. 5"", 6"", 12"" - so three of these shelves were suitable for upright book storage and I filled the short shelf with books laid flat. Still overall a very nice, sturdy, functional piece of furniture. This won't be the last Sauder item I purchase.

Perfect Bookcase

Perfect size and sturdy.

Poorly engineered POS. Was told that the bookcase could be s

Uses to store books and research materials. Only bottom shelf loaded and the POS sags in the center causing the frame to separate. Yes, the center plastic footing was installed.

I would but again.

It works well in the space for a book case. However, the color in the picture on line was different than the one I got. It works and was too heavy to return. The one I thought I was getting was a darker color.
