This bookcase was sadly underwhelming, despite the stellar reviews. The "charcoal grey" of the legs is essentially black and the brand, as well, is NOT Mercury Row, it's Safavieh. The bookcase is sturdy, but while connecting one of the shelves to the frame, the screw went through to the other side because the wood is quite soft. I'm disappointed enough to go through the hassle of dismantling the piece and returning it to Wayfair.
