Great piece!  The bookcase is solid and looks exactly like the picture.  Although the bookcase was packed perfectly, there were two marks on the front, bottom of the piece that are lighter than everything else.  It almost looks like it is scuffed.  The wood itself is not damaged, but it was a little disappointing to have the marks right on the front.  The dimensions of the shelves from top/bottom (in case it might help when trying to decide to purchase): 8 and almost 1/4" - err on 8" if buying baskets.
