It is very pretty, I love the antique white color.   There are a few pieces of wood that have splits in them.  I don't think it was because of shipping because the package came in good condition.  The company may need to work on their quality control before they ship their product.  Because the instructions and the labeled pieces didn't match.  But it was still easy to put together just by looking at the pics.   in spite of the few flaws I think the shelves will be durable and last a very long time! Im happy with them :)
