These shelves are cute. I like the metal hardware. The wood is ok, mine came scratched in a few areas but not a concern for me, it’s also very light but I won’t be using these for anything heavy. Installation was very simple. I used just two small screws for each piece, one on each side to attach the bracket to the wood. Placed on the wall with a level, marked my holes, and then drilled in anchors. I wouldn’t use the anchors that were sent with it, seem flimsy. Overall I’m happy with them.
