I purchased another Bookcase for my husband to use as storage for his wine bottles. I needed another bookcase for all my cookbooks and candles, figurines, etc. so I decided to order this to match. Unfortunately, my piece came pretty nicked up. It isn't extremely noticeable....but still, the veneer finish was nicked showing the MDF underneath in multiple places. Also, the directions could be a little bit more specific, or maybe have the unmarked pieces marked so you can differentiate which one is which. A suggestion would be to send this bookcase as two separate shipments instead of once, since it is extremely heavy and I'm sure that is why it was nicked. Overall a great buy because it looks great and wasn't a very expensive piece of furniture.
