Cute concept but breaks easily. My first order was broken in multiple areas. Wayfair sent me a replacement no charge but it was broken at the seesaw part on the boy side (see picture). I guerrilla glued it and it’s holding up so far. Perhaps it is a packaging issue because both times the boxfoam around the bookends were crushed. Both the box and foam used were thin for such an intricate item. Overall heavy and sturdy enough to do the job of holding up books.
