I am really disappointed in this bookshelf for multiple reasons. First, it is definitely not “about 10 inches from the floor to the bottom shelf,” as indicated in Wayfair’s answers to the questions. It is, at best, about 8”. I needed it to be at least 9” from the floor to the bottom shelf in order to go over baseboard heating, so that’s incredibly frustrating. Second, it’s a huge pain to use the Allen wrench to put it together. Third, none of the pieces fit together particularly well. The sides are three separate pieces, and you can see gaps and edges where they don’t actually meet up. It gets two stars for the price, but gosh, I am disappointed.
