Sturdy bookcase. Only complaint is the backing of the bookcase which was a cardboard like backing. The backing had holes in it to have a lamp wire pass through. The description of the product did not mention this. As I preferred a more solid backing, I went to Home Depot and purchased a white hard backing ($20) from their lumber section. Cut it to size and installed. Now, it looks great so no complaints. I wish a more quality backing was provided to avoid the workaround. I would still recommend if you like design. Just be prepared to do some extra work if the provided backing does not meet your expectations.
