The shelves arrived very quickly, but were not quite what I expected. The bookshelf is flimsy and the shelves are not big enough to hold 2 inch binders. We got 2 of these to help help hold our textbooks and binders from schooling. Also, the slatted shelves make it difficult to put pictures on it, they fall right through! I was hoping for something a little more sturdy, but for the price I guess this is what I should have expected.
