I had purchase this corner shelves to replace my bathroom over the toilet shelves. This corner shelves gave the bathroom a much more storage shelves plus it looks much better than the over the toilet shelves.  Really glad that it work out well. Putting up the shelves you do need at least two person but fairly easy to do. The material are compress particle wood with laminate wood texture. It pretty nice on the wall but you know it cheep material. Wish it was made from real solid wood.  Overall, I like it look and it is very functional. I do recommend this type of shelving put int the bathroom. -tran1267yahoo.com
