I bought 2 of these bookcases! They arrived fully assembled and in great condition! The delivery men were very careful as they carried the 2 large boxes into my family room. The bookcases are made well and are sturdy to support a variety of things. I have mine in filled with books, framed pictures, glass ornaments, and small souvenirs from my travels. The shelves can't be adjusted, so some things may not fit due to the height. (11.5 inches) The bottom has 3 draws for storage. (4.5 inches deep)
There is enough space on top of the bookcase to leave empty or put something there to fill the space ~ since they do not touch an average ceiling height.
