This bookshelf is really nice looking. I like that the frame is painted metal. It makes for clean lines and sturdy shelves. The directions for assembly were just okay, as it was a different sort of unit to put together with all the atypical shapes involved. Overall it was worth figuring out because I really like the look of it and it is pretty sturdy, even on carpeting. Definitely should be anchored to the wall though because it’s not very deep and could tip, especially if it had a lot of books or weighty items on it. The spaces on it are really good for typical size fabric storage bins.
