The rack is very functional for storage of my dvd collection. The only reason I am not giving this item a 5 is a result of the UPS shipping/handling. The box was torn which resulted in a couple of nicks on side panels. Fortunately they are are on the back and are not visible. The problem was that the carton had gotten wet, which resulted in a panel getting wet. This caused damage when assembling some of the hardware into the soft wood. We did not realize the wood was wet until the damage occurred.
