Great shelf, very sturdy. I was having a difficult time finding a shelf that was 6 ft long without being $200.00 +. We did repaint it to a color we liked - we didn't care much for the black. This DOES void the warranty, but we haven't had any issues with the quality of the shelf. Great place to display our travel pics. The depth of the shelf also allows for "stacking" of photo frames. You just have to be careful the frames aren't too thick. 

Pros: Sturdy, length, depth
Cons: Color (didn't care for black)
