I have  wood products in multiple rooms of my home! I love the quality! I think it's perfect for a starter home! Looks and feels like a solid piece! For this particular shipment I noticed a small chip on the bottom back leg, but it could have occurred while I was assembling(hence 5 stars). Shipping package is very nice. While assembly instructions weren't the best I've had for pre-fab, it didn't take long to put the shelves together. Probably 30 minutes or so from open to completely set up. I loved this little shelf so much I ordered a second one!
