These floating shelves are a great touch with a  country style to them. They came very well packaged to avoid damage to the edges of the shelves. The instructions were available both in paper format and digitally with both being easy to follow. The wood shelves had a nice two tone grain which makes them go well in any living space. To top all that, they had a nice heavy weight to them not flimsy like most "wood" shelves that you find in most other stores.
