love love!  These look fabulous.  I got three and have them next to each other in my basement.  Nice warm dark brown color. Love the current look of ladder shelf.  The only CON to keep in mind is this is open-ended so if you plan to stack full of books (like I did) you will need book ends.  Lots of book ends so the books don't fall off!  Duh.  Haha.   If you do cute vases and picture frames etc, like the picture, you'll be fine.
