I selected this bookcase because I had a small corner area in my bedroom that I wanted to use for some extra books. This arrived very quickly and was easy to put together, and is quite heavy/sturdy. I like the design-- a compact, visually pleasing, and useful way to store books. Also might be useful for storing other items, like shoes.

Pros: Sturdy, ease to assemble
Cons: The base is larger than I expected, but fit ok in the space I wanted it in.
