This was by far the best piece of furniture I have received!! I was a bit dismayed at the condition of the box when it arrived but all f the contents were safely packed inside. It went together like a fine watch and took a little under an hour to assemble( I took my time). I had a need for a shallow book case in my office and this unit is the perfect answer. The shelves, fully adjustable and strong enough to support a full load of CD's or books, are certainly adequate in number to fully utilize the space. If I had to say anything at all negative about the bookcase I would note that the hidden hinges, three per door and fully adjustable to allow perfect door alignment, protrude slightly onto the shelf area making for minor limitations on the end half-inch of shelves in this area. In my case it was not a problem in the slightest.If this is the style of case that fits your needs you could not do better even at several times the cost.
