This bookcase ended up being exactly what I needed for the corner of my office! The shelf space is ample...Im still playing around with how I want to style them, but there is enough room to place decorative baskets, as shown in my photo. The drawers are roomy and I love that the bottom drawer is set up for use as a hanging file folder holder, but it can also just be a drawer if you dont wish to store file folders. The drawer bottoms would be flimsy, but there is an added support to prevent the drawer sagging that so often happens with cam lock type furniture. Overall, it wasnt a struggle to build, although there were a fair number of pieces to put together. It took me about an hour, but that was with distractions galore. Im quite happy with the finished product!
