Bookcases look great--the color is a medium brown and looks good with other oak furniture we have.  The worst thing is the backs.  They are tacky.  They are made of very thin wood and when we attached them it was difficult to get them to line up.  When we screwed them on the screws came through and show on the other side.  Fortunately, books hide them but I would hope they could get a better design.  

I would buy them again.  They were the best price I found for the quality.
