So I think for this price you get what you pay for, but I will be honest in that it is NOT the sturdiest set. I was a bit disappointed in the quality of the wood. There were some imperfections, dings, scuffs etc but luckily not where you can really see with a blind eye. The bookshelf on the right as you can somewhat see is extremely wobbly no matter how often I tighten the screws it leans considerably to one side. If I step too hard or do any kind of exercise in my living room they shake. They should definitely supply materials to mount these bookshelves because they’re just not the most sturdy. I love the way they look and the extra storage in our small NYC apartment I just wish they were better quality.
