"Good value for price, no difficulties in assembly. Only complaint is the chestnut color is much darker than the online pictures show."

"We have no regrets buying this product. I was hesitant when I found out it required assembly but because of the beautiul appearance I decided to give it a try. Every piece was well labeled and it gave very detailed instructions. It went together quickly and it was easy. The craftmanship is beautiful and we have received a ton of compliments on it ! I bought the green shelf with the wood exterior. The green really set it off ! I would definitely recommend this product to anyone ! I also receive excellent customer service from Home Decorators !"

Beautiful look at a great price
Date:August 8, 2012
"I purchased two of these bookcases in the "cream" color, which is more like a muted yellow/green. They are absolutely beautiful. They are very sturdy and the overall construction is good. I put them together with my 13 year old daughter and it wasn't too hard. It took us about 3 hours to put two together. (I couldn't imagine someone putting it together alone).
I'm very satisfied with my purchase."

Very pleased with this bookcase
Date:April 10, 2012
"Fast shipping and, even though the two boxes were damaged on arrival, everything inside of them (except for a few minor scratches which were hidden by the installation of the shelving) was fine. Very sturdy (it's being used as a china closet instead of a bookcase), not too difficult to put together (but you will need two people to install the glass doors). Extra hardware was included - one of the barrel nuts had to be replaced after installing, because it broke. All pieces of the cabinet were marked except for the left and right side panels, but it's pretty obvious which goes where during assembly. I really like the fact that it comes in various colors. My choice was the walnut with green shelves and backing. The cabinet would blend in well with almost any decor style and, because it doesn't look overly ornate, could be used in a contemporary or a traditional setting. Shelves are 16 inches deep, making this cabinet practical for either books, chinaware or any display purpose. If used for display, would be great if it came with an interior light as the cabinet interior is rather dark."

Provence double bookcase
Date:April 7, 2012
"Bad News - The bookcase we ordered went from bad to worse . . . The lovely green had a poor job of 'antiqueing' just splotches of black splattered paint on all of the green - yuck! One of the feet - which are all packed in a separate box looked as if it had been clawed by an animal, and there was a small chunk out of the inside top of the case . . .but we went forward to put it together . . .We got to the part where you put the top on and NO WAY was the top going to fit - that stable center shelf was too wide!! It would need to be cut down about 1/4 inch and then the holes drilled a little deeper. We almost dropped the top onto our thumbs while holding and manipulating it - that top is VERY heavy. Overall it would have been a lovely piece of furniture if it didn't have so many problems. Very Frustrating!!!I think the quality control department was not working when this bookcase went out."

Looks Good But...
Date:March 22, 2012
"The Provence Bookcase, while it looks good, is actually quite a flimsy piece of furniture. By this I mean that you can't put anything remotely heavy in it without worrying that it won't be able to hold the weight. If used for "light" items it would be fine but a toddler could knock it over. Also, it took 2 people to put it together, moderate difficulty. The finish is pretty but it is not white like it says. It is actually distressed cream."

Double The Charm!

Reviewer Images
(click to see full-size image)
"I ordered this double bookcase after purchasing the single version in the same color. This is a truly beautiful, classic yet stylish, well made and sturdy piece of furniture. My inspiration for it was a piece featured in 2011 Summer/Spring issue of Country French magazine with green interior. We now have three pieces from the Provence collection in our great room area. They blend easily with our lighter cottage style Broyhill pieces and succeed in tieing the look together. I could not be happier than I am with HD's Provence collection. My husband rates the assembly as moderate due to the glass doors. He cautions you to be sure to identify top ends of side and back panels before installing. I am using this as a bookcase and found that the green is not very visible once it is filled with books. (A pro or a con depending on your preference.)"

excellant decision
Date:January 13, 2012
"After moving my hutch didn't fit in my kitchen that I displayed my teapots on. Being very discouraged, I found the Provence Double Bookcase. I wanted something that would be classy looking but not to ornate. The bookcase was just the piece I was looking for. Great decision."

Nice finish, but parts not made correctly
Date:August 11, 2011
"Overall for the money, a nice piece and fairly easy to assemble given the good instructions. However. the unit I received came with the wrong size bead board back- about 3 inches too long. And, the holes for the door hinges on the face frame were drilled in wrong locations- about 1 inch off. So, the assembly process is a pain, since I now have to cut the backboard to size and redrill the hinge holes."

Very Beautiful
Date:July 28, 2011
"Ordered it in black. Assembly was not hard as a person who has a fair amount of experience putting furniture together. Two people are a must to assemble. Upon advice from reviews, I put the back on the piece before the doors, and didn't have a problem at all getting the doors to close properly.
I appreciate the glass being so securely placed in the doors. They won't rattle when you open or shut the case.
I'm using this as a pantry in my kitchen. Looks great. There are some gashes on it that I think are "weathering." They seem a little off, but don't really bother me that much. YMMV."

Glad I bought them
Date:July 21, 2011
"I purchased two double bookcases. The price was a great value compared to having them built by a carpenter. It is a stylish piece that works well in our country French home. The "Tiffany" blue interior is a fresh look that I probably wouldn't have dared to do on my own. However, it keeps the room feeling light and fun, but not over the top. The assembly was typical..not fun. Overall, it looks like a quality piece with a beautiful stained finish. I only wish we had spaces for some of the other pieces!"

Over Priced
Date:July 21, 2011
"Not very solidly constructed for the price. Was expecting better and less assembling to do. "Some assembly required" would be a huge under statement. A couple steps in the instructions were not clear and resulted in having to dissassemble and reassemble the top and bottom peices."
