I got two of these to carry a theme into different rooms. I'm happy with the size and quality, al- though it's odd that the undersides of the board are not stained the same as the top. Not a bad thing, necessarily, but just know that going into it.  Also a tip: while I hoped to not have to bolt these into the floor, they seem to need it to keep stable as people bumping into them can shift the base, at least on our slick marble floors. Maybe that wouldn't be an issue on other floor surface. I wish these same shelves were available in various widths (they do come in various heights) as I really like the narrow shelf.  I knocked off one star due to the strange staining job, but that may really appeal to some buyers.
