Be sure to check the dimensions...this bookcase is smaller than your average bookcase and isn't the sturdiest, nor do the shelves actually hold a lot of weight.  However, for my purposes it is fantastic.  It wasn't difficult to put together, it looks great and it's perfect for displaying smallish items and decorative boxes.  This bookcase and some boxes allow us to keep my husband's old Nintendo and Playstation near the TV for easy access while allowing us to look (on the outside) like actual adults.
