5/5 highly recommend

missing pieces

Everything started off well. Delivery was quick and packaged nicely. once I opened the box, everything went downhill. no hardware or instructions, so I couldn't check the parts list. call customer service explained that I had nothing but parts she said it would take 3 to 5 business days received hardware within 5 days still no instructions tried to look them up online didn't find them but sill missing something to attach the legs don't know what, why BECAUSE I HAVE NO INSTRUCTIONS OR PARTS LIST!!!

Definitely a two person job to assemble

Have a hammer handy because the connectors that hold the top and the bottom don’t just slide in like the instructions say. And because of the angle, having two people to assemble definitely makes it a ton easier.

IT never showed up then I was told it was lost went to reorder price was doubled

It's not a $400 shelving unit, but looks good and does what it's supposed to do.

Made my room neater

Made my room more neat; the wooden shelves are so vintage and class: quality of the metal is strong

I absolutely love

I absolutely love the look of this bookshelf. There is one part of it that doesn¡¯t quite fit into the other piece the way it should, but I can look past it. Other than that it¡¯s good quality & pretty sturdy but I definitely plan on mounting it to the wall as it¡¯s a tiny bit wobbly on my ceramic tile floors.

After reading many

After reading many other reviews I was hesitant to purchase this shelf due to the assembly complaints. The manufacturer must have listened and corrected some flaws because this was very easy to put together. The quality is fine and it matches our furniture well.

Good quality for

Good quality for my daughter¡¯s college apartment. Size is great and she loves the style.

Overall, the look

Overall, the look of the shelf is beautiful. The dark metal and vintage wood are great complements and work well with other furniture and decorations we purchased. Unfortunately there were quite a few issues that made this shelf very difficult to assemble - even with both my husband and I working together. First, the shelf came with three (F) legs and only one (G) leg (supposed to be two and two). Luckily, these pieces are very similar, and I don't believe it had much of an effect on assembly. Then, when trying to insert the top, arched pieces (H) onto the legs, they did not fit due to the angle of the legs not matching the arches and the metal inserts on top of the legs being too wide. We had to use a hammer to make the tops of the legs a bit narrower and use some significant force to connect the legs with the arches. Finally, two of the top shelves had at least one hole that did not line up with the screw locations. No matter how much effort or muscle used, we could not get the holes to line up. Rather than have multiple holes with no screws, we used a drill to create new holes in the shelves. If you choose to purchase this shelf, you won't be disappointed in its functionality or look, but be prepared for some frustration and extra work trying to put it together.

Looks more expensive

Looks more expensive than it is and is super sturdy.

It was easier

It was easier to assmble than I thought, but you should have someone assist, especially the first two platforms. I like the look of the library; it fit nicely in my office space.

Very nice customer service

Had a few small issues with balancing properly, but I still want to give these guys credit. They went above and beyond what was needed with my questions and solutions. Customer service is A+.

Looks nice and

Looks nice and somewhat sturdy. A HUGE pain in the rear to put together. There are only slight differences in some of the pieces and you have to be extra careful that you're putting them together the right way around. I had to take it apart twice. All the manufacturer has to do to fix this is to add colored FRONT stickers to some of the pieces. Also the cams sit loose and you have to hold them in place while screwing them from the other side. I've never seen such a clueless design.

Exactly as stated. Easy to put together.

Good shelf.

This is a decent shelf, it is pretty sturdy, directions aren¡¯t the greatest but if you pay attention it shouldn¡¯t be a problem putting it together.
