Inexpensive + Solid = Bargain
First, this is not fine furniture. It is not meant to be. It is particle board with veneer, not hardwood. If you want fine furniture: look elsewhere and spend a lot more money. Plain fact of life. This bookshelf is VERY inexpensive, I couldn’t find the raw materials to build a book shelf this size from scratch for less, and I mean any material, certainly not hardwood.Second, it is not assembled, it comes as pieces well packed in a box. You need to have some rudimentary carpentry skills and be able to read carefully and follow correctly moderately complex directions to put it together properly. This is critical. If it is properly assembled it is quite sturdy. If it is not properly assembled it will fall in a heap under it’s own weight. It is not difficult relative to other self assemble furniture, it is actually on the easy side, but some people just don’t have the skills. If you don’t, be aware of it and don’t buy self assemble furniture. It doesn’t make you an evil or deficient person. :)A few notes on assembly: 1) When you tighten the hidden cam as directed make sure the two pieces you are joining are firmly pressed together when you turn it, if they are not the cam will not hold as securely. 2) It says to use a manual screw driver for assembly, not a drill/electric driver. This is because if you over tighten the screws all the king’s horses and all the king’s men will not be able to fix it so the bookshelf works properly again. I am good with a driver, I still didn’t risk it. There aren’t that many screws. 3) The back is not purely cosmetic. It may be veneer over extra tough cardboard but it is critical to the overall strength and stability of the shelf. It also is how you make sure the whole thing is square. Put a nail in at one corner, go to the opposite corner, make sure the edges of the backing align with the sides of the shelf before you put a nail in that corner. Work around trying to keep the back flat as you nail, and use all the nails they provide.As mentioned elsewhere, it could use at least one more shelf. I will probably cut a piece of pine 1×12 and stain it a close enough color.Assemble in the room you are going to place it in. If you are working alone the best way to move it is to put your hands in front of you palm up and lift by the permanent shelf, that is the strongest lift point. Even if you have help that is the lift point. Do not try to move it by grabbing the upper half, it is not meant to be moved that way and the upper half may come off. I would not recommend moving it often and never with anything in it. I have kept the directions because if I change residences again I will certainly take the time to dismantle it, it will transport much better that way.

Flimsy, poor construction, unsafe, use caution.
First, bear in mind: I’ve had to build a LOT of particle board furniture over the years. When it’s a decent product, particle board is an acceptable medium for long term use.This isn’t it. The particle board is poor quality, large chunks, not dense, and the matrix the wood “particles” are bonded in was loose.The cams and bolts are also poor quality, with 1 mis-molded bolt in the package (they sent a spare). But that makes me worried about the metal that’s used. And finally, the nails for the cardboard back had very small heads…which is a major design flaw because they expect the cardboard back to be the item that provides rigidity for thus product. See below.The top and bottom of this is held in place by a single small screw and 4 cams. Worryingly, they have you build the top as a full box, and then mount the bottom 3 panels to the top. For stability, this should be the other way around. The bottom should have been the full box.When fully assembled, this leans to and fro without the cardboard backing. LET ME BE CLEAR: THEY EXPECT THE EIGHTH INCH CARDBOARD BACKING to be the part that gives this product stability. No, sir. Just…no.After all that, here’s the unsurprising bit. I built it exactly per its instructions. Used all the nails for the backing because, unlike the other shelves from another vendor I was building that day, I felt like this one needed them. Went to (carefully) move the unit into the office space it was to be used in. The cardboard immediately ripped free, and the cam bolts holding the top to the bottom pulled out of the already-mentioned poor quality particle matrix. It folded like a house of cards. I had moved the unit a total of 30 feet with a dolly.In short: if you’re gonna buy this thing, build it in the room you will use it. Don’t expect to ever move it. But even then? Honestly, I wouldn’t even trust it to support the weight of your average FEATHER COLLECTION.

I found these bookcases at a whopping -50% off and wanted to buy 5 sets, alas amazon would only let me buy a maximum of 3. Why? I have no idea. They are easy to put together, but flimsy as heck. So, what I did was build them, stand them side by side against the wall and then added an extra screw near the top and near the bottom on each of the bookcases, basically fusing them together. Now they are sturdy and actually I’m chuffed with them. But if you just buy one, I think you’ll be disappointed as it won’t be sturdy enough to hold books. Also, be aware, I ended up getting three separate individual transaction charges for each of the bookcases, rather than 1 single total transaction charge on my credit card. No big deal, but if you have a free account with your bank and limited transactions, this seller, for some unearthly unimaginable reason, can’t take one total amount. So you’ll be dinged 2,3,4,5 etc times for each individual bookcase.
