This is just gorgeous! I got the black with cherry wood and it's so rich and modern. I'm using it for planters in front of a large window and it's perfect...it's nice and narrow and the shelves are quite surprisingly spacious. I chose this one in particular because it's self standing, doesn't have to be leaning on anything, and because it is open on the bottom and I had to put it right over a heating vent in the floor and I didn't want to block it. Most others had the first shelf right on the floor. I took off one star because a piece broke off when my husband was putting it together...he managed to use something he had to keep it together.
