I love this bookcase.  I did a ton of research both in stores and online before making the purchase.  I waited six months before making the decision to get this.  My husband, unlike some men, is very picky about furniture in our home.  But we have a collection of original handcrafted pottery and needed a space efficient yet attractive way to display the items.  I was concerned about the stability because I certainly did not want our pieces in danger of falling.  This is perfect.  It is stable, secure, and looks unique plus beautiful.  Will purchase again in the future to put beside the current one as our collection grows.
