First of all let me say that the color of the shelves and slats are beautiful. This is an all wood bookcase. Unfortunately one of the shelves has a very big rough spot on it and they do not provide extra screws as one of the screws was stripped and it is half way in, thus making it not as sturdy as it should be. With that said if the shelf was smooth and the screw not stripped it has the potential to be 5 stars!!!!
