This was a great buy! I wanted bookshelves without the hefty price tag that comes with most shelving, and this unit has not disappointed. I didn’t plan on putting a tv inside since we already have ours mounted over our fireplace, but I think this still turned out great for being used for a different purpose than an entertainment center. The top shelf along the bottom piece (empty in the pic) does not support very much weight, so definitely keep that in mind when brainstorming what you plan to add to that spot. I plan to put a few of my toddler’s small toys into baskets that won’t weigh too much for the shelf. 

My husband did say that this was one of the more complex items he’s ever assembled, and it did require two people at times but all in all if you pack your patience it will be well worth it. I would definitely repurchase!
