I purchased two of these bookcases to complement my mid century modern  TV stand, also purchased from Wayfair.  I painted the poles gold to match my color pallet and they turned out super nice.  I put both of them together in under 2 hours, but im sure it could go faster.  And electric drill is a must to save time and energy.  Im still in the process of decorating, but wanted to submit a pic anyway.  The shelves are not shiny, but more muted white.  They are the perfect size to frame my TV.  Economical and high end all at the same time...winning!
