Got this in white and it's perfect for my daughter's room.  The little curvy details are nice and add much.  The backing is cheap and is nailed in.  With two kids pushing their books to the back of the shelf to return them, the backing keeps detaching.  Perhaps we can glue the nails in.  It's not solid wood so not the strongest but it's cute and holds plenty of books/decor.  It is also a nice height, I really dislike short bookshelves and this is a good height.  I would recommend as long as your okay with particle board.
