I would have given this item 5 stars, it looks exactly how it does in the picture, it's exacty what I wanted, I looked for quite a while before I came upon this gem. It arrived in a timely manner and was seemingly great...until I had to attach the towel bar. One of the screws was stripped/deformed and I wasn't able to remove it to attach the towel bar...and that was the major reason I liked this item. After much struggle I decided to give up, so alas my shelf has no towel bar...and I'm still pleased with it--even without the towel bar. Easy to install and hang....just no towel bar.
