Shelf is in my son's room to showcase his trophies and ribbons.  It is mounted between his window and wall. Fits the space nicely without being overwhelming.  Moms out there...beware that you will be dusting the top two shelves they are too high for young men to accomplish without a step stool.  Easy to mount and sturdy enough for his use.  Holds a lot and clears up his desk for other uses.
