Received it fairly quickly, no damaged parts.  Fairly straight forward, but time consuming to put together.  Watch how much you tighten the cams..  It's not wood per say, but that's almost a good thing, because if it was solid wood, it would be pretty heavy (It's pretty sturdy as is).  As per other reviews, the very top and bottom shelves are not adjustable and you can't fit DVDs, CD's, or blu-rays in them vertically, but it is great shelf space for nick-knacks or other awkward items.  The finished piece is beautiful.  It has a nice reddish cherry finish.  I would highly recommend it!
