Lovely proportions of height-to-width. Solid piece of furniture. Value (eg, price vs quality) is good but the paint is somewhat below average (thinly painted front drawers where trim shows unpainted brown wood on edges). Paint is "Eggshell" (not glossy) and lower quality paint. One bookcase arrived damaged (a rather deep 1.25-inch diameter depression in the wood) on the front right side about 10-inches from the floor & the box that it arrived in was perfect so presumably it was packed with this defect. Drawers are not very tall but they are functional.
