I had been searching for something to fill the space on either side of my television. I am extremely happy with these bookshelves!  They are exactly as pictured and I really like the combination of the wood and metal. I found them straightforward to assemble and I was able to do it by myself. I found the shelves to be attractive and sturdy. I was also able to leave out the bottom shelves in order to place the bookshelves around my speakers.   

Pros: Attractive, sturdy, good price
Cons: None so far
