This is my first purchase from Wayfair and I am not disappointed. It was described very well, and was exactly what I expected. I'm not handy so my friend put it together in less than 12 hour. Admittedly, there was slight damage (scratches) to the little pegs you put over the screws, but the company that makes the shelf quickly sent me 6 replacements (even when I only needed 2 because the side that 4 of the scratched pegs would not be seen). It is sturdy and holds my photos very well. I don't have items that are heavy, so I don't know if it would hold more weightier items. Overall, it is perfect.
