I love it!  Plenty of room for DVD's and doesn't take up much space.  I plan on getting another one very soon.  It was VERY easy to put together.  I don't think you would even need the directions it is so simple.  Sturdy and strong.  I have a one year old that likes to pull himself up and I have never worried about it falling over.  The base is wide like it describes and I pulled on it to make sure it was okay, it didn't move at all.  It holds as many DVDs as it says, but what is really great is the funky DVD cases(Disney tins, Band of Brothers, etc...) that are normally too big for other shelves fit perfect.  I was worried about the price, but now that I have it I know the price was a great deal.  I have looked around for a black DVD shelf that could hold a lot of DVDs.  This is by far the most reasonable in price for its size. Perfect!!!
