I purchased this product to store an inventory of DVDs that I sell on the internet.  It comes with several shelves that are easily adjustable.  The tower is very attractive and has proven to be a great buy.  I previously had my inventory in boxes in the garage and now they are all displayed beautifully in one tower that makes filling orders and reordering my stock much more efficient.  It fits perfectly in my hallway but I would have no issue to display it in my living room because it is very attractive.  I have had many compliments on the unit and would recommend it to anyone with a large collection of DVDs or CDs.
