Okay so I love this bookcase! Definitely get it! It took me a few hours to assemble on my own and the grey is beautiful( it almost looks like stone/concrete). It seems like it is high quality and sturdy, however YOU DEFINETLY NEED TO ANTI-TIPPING GUARDS with this shelf. Especially if you have children around I feel this would fall right over.  Other than that, this is great and I highly recommend it!
