Great Bookcase
Date:April 12, 2013
"Received this bookcase and immediately put it together. Assembly was fairly easy and it looks great. Using it as a media center in the bedroom - the taller height works perfectly for raising the TV/box over the height of the footboard. Definitely a good deal."

Save your money
Date:March 20, 2013
"Looked like the perfect small bookcase we needed in our home office. While the bookcase looks good, looks can be deceiving. The locking cams that hold the the thing together were difficult to get lined up properly and one of them pushed through the very thin MDF veneer on the side of the bookcase. Would not recommend this to anyone."

Very nice, a bit difficult to assemble
Date:March 15, 2013
"Some of the holes do not line up so well. The package that it comes in is almost the size of the bookcase when fully assembled, still weighs the same, so I don't see why they don't just ship it already assembled from China. Seriously, would only add about 4 inches to the box width and that is it. Overall though it is a very, very nice piece. I have a matching bookcase that is slightly larger in another space in my home. The style and finish are superb."

Handsome bookcase!
Date:August 16, 2012
"The finished bookcase is handsome, and represents a good value for me. My only caution is that the assembly is moderately time-consuming, and one needs to be careful to tighten the lock-cams to the correct extent. The bottom line for me: Excellent."

Beautiful Bookcase
Date:August 14, 2012
"I received this bookcase within a few days from ordering. It took only 15 minutes to assemble! All of the parts were expertly packed and all hardware labelled. The bookcase looks beautiful in the sitting area of my bedroom and holds lots of books and pottery. This is a quality piece for a fraction of what a solid wood bookcase would cost. I would definitely recommend!"

Nice finish, assembly issues
Date:June 6, 2012
"Pieces were received in great shape and were complete. The bookcase has a nice, elegant look to it. Now the bad part. Camlocks did not properly align causing some damage to the side boards (inside the cabinet). Had to fill and color over damaged areas. Obviously some manufacturing issues that need to be addressed. If your handy, you can deal with it. But if your looking for something straightforward that doesn't require touch-up, look else where."

"It is a little smaller than I expected, but, that is my fault for not paying enough attention to the size listed. I was so pleased with the high quality of the wood and it is beautiful. Looks and feels like a very expensive piece of furniture."

Great bookcase for the price!
Date:February 17, 2012
"This bookcase is affordable, looks very nice, and was only a few dollars more than the MDF bookcases they sell at WalMart that look ... well, like MDF. I am terrible at following assembly instructions, but I put this together all by myself within an hour. Looks very nice. The reason I am not giving it 5 stars is that the instructions told me to "clean it" before assembling it, and it did seem like Pledge left a strange streak on it. It eventually seemed to go away but was very noticeable for a few days after assembly. I would be cautious about cleaning products. But great deal for the money, looks much nicer than the alternatives from the big box stores that also require assembly and this piece only cost a few dollars more. Definitely recommend."

Great Purchase
Date:January 23, 2012
"I was looking for a small piece of furniture to fill a space and give character to that area of the room. This bookcase was perfect. I wanted something where I could store a few books but not with the idea of filling it up. If you are looking for a bookcase to store a lot of books, you may want to get something bigger. This bookcase really only has a total of around 25" of vertical space, divided into 3 sections by the shelves, to hold books. The shelves are adjustable which is helpful. The color of the bookcase is a dark cherry color. I was concerned about it being too red, but because it is dark, it blends easier with other woods. It arrived in great condition, well packed, and was easy to put together. A screwdriver is all you need and 1- 1 1/2 hours to put it together. I would agree with other reviews, that the little brown felt stickers are useless. I left mine off, they don't stick anyway. I'd rather see the metal hardware that holds the bookcase together. They are on the inside and you don't really see them. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase."

Stunning Piece
Date:September 21, 2011
"This bookcase exceeded my expectations. I bought it for the entryway in my office, which was bare, and it looks like a designer's purchase. Very elegant and solid. Agree with other reviewers that the little plastic stickers to cover the silver screws were way off on color, but I took one of the reviewer's (more than one I think) suggestions and used a furniture marker - perfect! Love this piece! Note that the 3 shelf/small version doesn't fit all that many books (2 shelves of standard sized and one shelf for very short books, or, as I did, some books laid flat)."

excellent product

"The bookcase came perfectly packed and in great shape. Well made, and tbe finish was just as described. This is the third or fourth purchase from Home Decorators and we have always been pleased. It was a little difficult to put together, but when we both worked on it, it became much easier."

Excellent book case
Date:June 17, 2011
"I like this bookcase, a great value, easy to put together. I did not want to spend a lot of money and I was cautious about buying this bookcase until I read the reviews so I am so glad I purchased it. My only comment that would be negative is the small circles that were sent to cover the screws on the inside of the bookcase were completely the wrong color, way too light. I decided not to use them. Also my husband didn't even know what it was in that plastic bag he thought it was sandpaper and couldn't figure out why he would be needing that so when I looked at it I saw the circles but as I say they need to improve the color. I am enjoying it and highly recommend it."
