Shelves are much shorter than expected. Only short books can fit on the horizontal shelving. Composite wood is fairly standard quality, but be careful not to nick the exterior or youll see the very obvious composite wood underneath. For the holes in-place required for assembly, they provide you with colored, round stickers. Not ideal.

All that said, to be fair, this is a very standard composite wood shelf at a competitive cost. Giving it 3 stars primarily due to the shelf heights being too short for about 80 of our books, forcing to place many on their side.
