Bad quality

Poor quality, not as nice as the matching crib. Worth $90. All particle board, lots of dents on arrival.

This bookshelf is so sturdy and beautiful! I can’t recommend it enough.

Extremely Disappointed

The construction of this is terrible. For the price, they could have, and should have, done MUCH better. Multiple boards came with water damage, cracks, and/or were dirty, and there’s nothing we can do to hide the flaws. Cheap material that definitely won’t last a long time. Super disappointing, as we also purchased the dresser and side tables that go with this set. I wish we could return it, but it’s already put together. Babyletto, please do better.

Beautiful piece but terrible assembly instructions

The bookcase is lovely but it was very difficult to assemble. The assembly instructions did not make much sense. The instructions have you build the bookcase from the inside out, essentially, but the pieces are not very sturdy and a rather iffy quality (I was surprised by this given the price) so we needed to ignore the instructions at times. The back piece of the bookcase is made of rather flimsy material but the design is relying on it to prevent the bookcase from shifting around too much which does not seem ideal for a piece of future intended to serve as a bookcase in a kid's room. We will likely need to reinforce the pieces in addition to anchoring it to ensure there isn't a safety issue. Frankly, I am disappointed in the quality of the piece given that it is not a cheap piece. Less

This is a great piece. I would reccomment.

Dowel rods provided for assembly were too long and went straight through the side of the bookcase causing 2 large holes. Also the holes for the dowel rods on the top did not line up correctly causing damage.

Beautiful and easy to assemble

It looks so beautiful and stylish

We love all our Hudson furniture and especially the bookcase! It’s the perfect size and doesn’t look like typically nursery furniture. It’s sleek, the shelves have a ton of space and there’s enough room on top for so many things.

Open box and in decent condition but it did not come with all the hardware pieces! We’re missing two cam locks.And not gonna lie, the shelf is very wobbly.

Easy to put together. Nice and substantial. We chose to leave the backing off so that the shelves are open.

It looks cute but the quality isn't great. For the price, I had higher expectations.

Great looking line but the back board chips easily when putting it together, luckily noone will ever see where.

I don’t recommend this product to anyone. Cheap manufactured wood and very low quality overall.

Beautiful, but Flawed

As has already been said here, this bookcase is beautiful and the style is really unique, and yet there are some flaws you should be aware of. We went with the natural wood color, which is where the first flaw is. It’s a nice color, but much more peach and even a bit pink than the photos would lead you to believe. This isn’t a deal breaker for us, but it could be a bummer if you didn’t know. The assembly is ROUGH, even compared to the other pieces in the Hudson collection. It is poorly designed for assembly and is so fragile at one point in the process when you assemble the middle shelves. If you plan on assembling this alone, you’ll have to get creative and go off-script. I ended up doing (after a failed attempt following the directions) that and it turned out totally fine. But it looks really nice. That’s the redeeming factor for us. It fits our baby nursery so well and if you know the flaws going into it, it could be a really nice piece. Less

This was a little tricky to assemble. It is sturdy. It has a pink cast to the color instead of the neutral wood as shown and described.

Poor quality

We bought the Hudson crib and dresser, they were good quality. The bookcase is definitely not. It is 90% particle board. My husband kept saying he couldn’t believe how much this item costs as he was putting it together. Not sturdy. I would not recommend this product.

Just okay- beautiful, not sturdy

PROS: The bookcase/cubby itself is beautiful- it is much heavier than cheaper versions I’ve used in the past and the white is crisp and bright. CONS: It was not “quick and easy” to put together as other reviewers have suggested, it took about an hour and a half and required two people to ensure every part of each shelf lined up correctly and stayed aligned before tightening. Unfortunately it is pretty wobbly...Sheetrock anchors are most definitely needed. It’s not as sturdy as what I was expecting for the price. Overall, it’s beautiful looking and heavy, but quality and sturdiness need improvement.

Smh

This is so pretty but it arrived with sloth of damage knicks and particularly board broken, the instructions should have had a little bit of words but I managed, by the time I was almost done putting it together I noticed a damage that I couldn’t even continue to put it together, assembly was annoying, and very white washed

Disappointed

Started falling apart as soon as we put it together. Particle board in back was crumbling. Wood around holes split as we put the shelves in. Very disappointed.

Lovely.
