Absolutely terrible quality. I shopped around on the site for awhile to find a ladder bookcase with good reviews & after all that, I think I got the worst one. The only reason that I am giving it two stars is because it is extremely easy assembly and that Wayfair gave me a full refund. The side posts had 4 deep gashes on them on both sides - so deep it is unfixable. 4 of the 5 shelf platforms had 1-2 pieces broken off - partially because the material is shoddy, partially because they were lightly stapled on. All of the shelves had light to medium scratches. Lastly, the middle posts were left unfinished so they are a raw wood look while the rest of the unit is the dark brown. And overall it is not sturdy. It could be knocked over easily so do not put anything fragile on it. Honestly, the worst product I have ever bought. I know it is inexpensive, but even then it is such extremely low quality it is not worth it. Wayfair should not be posting this vendor.
