I picked up a white version of this bookshelf.  It was relatively easy to put together, and took very little time to get everything set up.  It has a really unique shape, and tall coffee table books fit in perfect on the side shelves.  While the metal screws are visible when the bookshelf is empty, they are not really a detriment to the item.   For a relatively inexpensive piece of furniture, this shelf is superb!  And yes-- this was my first Wayfair purchase.   Love it!
