This is my second item I ordered from Wayfair and of course it was in a timely fashion which is always a good thing. This bookcase needs absolutely no arm grease when it comes to putting it together except to take it out of the box and flip the arms open and out. Its sturdy and of good quality. As of now, I have my cable motem box, phone, printer, two laptops on it and it can hold plenty more. There are these little pegs that go over the screws for an aesthetic look but you don't need them. The color is Espresso but it to ME, it has a tinge of cherry to it. I am very happy with the service and the product.
