The good: love the deep shelves, the perfect-for-me narrow profile, the overall look, and how easy it was to put together. The bad: One of the shelves came with a big crack down the middle, like others have said, it's disappointing that there's no protective lacquer finish on the wood shelves, and finally I wish it had come with a kit to attach it to the wall. It does not feel super sturdy and I definitely will be watching my kids like a hawk until I can find a good one.
