This was just what I wanted/needed. I got it on sale for $50, and I knew based on other reviews I would get what I paid for. The box it came it was badly beaten up, and there was a tiny defect on the "wood" shelf. If you want it to be sturdy, you will have to mount it to the wall. But I expected all of that when I bought it so I have no complaints and it is perfect for what I need. I really love it!
