The mounting brackets are high quality and will hold a lot of weight, which may not be apparent since there is no descending support as you usually see. The wood is rough. Maybe it's a feature, but I expected nicely sanded and finished walnut sheelves for this money. But the real disappointment was that they only sent 12 of the 16 required screws/anchors. They go out of their way in the packaging docs to let me know it was inspected before shipment (with a sticker) and how it's proudly made in the USA. I actually purchased this because it was made in the US. And yet, they can't get all the needed screws into the bag and they appear to be saving some money on sand paper.
