Love this shelf! I've been looking for six months for just the right bookshelf for my bedroom and finally settled on this one. It's perfect! The mid-century feel is a perfect match, it's a great size, and the color is gorgeous. The color is called "champagne" and is pretty much a barely warm silver, which I love. It was easy to put together (I did it by myself) and seems very sturdy. I've had shelves that bowed after extended use but this one seems like it won't do that, even with large, heavy books.
