I used this bookcase in my baby's room to store books, diapers and diaper changing supplies, lotion, etc.  I ordered the version with doors on the bottom so I had more storage that could be safe from his little prying hands :)  It looks very nice in his small nursery and the tapered detail helps to make the piece look less "massive" in the room.  It went together fairly easily by my husband and it's nice looking enough to grow with my child as he gets older.
