These are very nice bookcases. They were very well packed so no scratches or broken pieces. They were too heavy for me to bring in so had to open outside and bring pieces into house and into room they were going in. Assembly was a breeze. Shelves are very thick so they support the weight. Hardest part was finding a wall stud to attach the anti-tip izp ties to. They def need anchored to wall as they are 72 tall. I sat them beside each other and they look great. Good purchase!!
