Bookcase with issues
Date: December 26, 2009
"The bookcase came and we were delighted until it came out of the box looking more orange not red oak as the dark oak color had been described in other reviews. We considered returning it but due to weight, it was heavy, it would have been an inconvenience. So we put it together to see if the overall color improved. We wondered if the Macintosh Oak might not have matched better but we had never heard of it and our furniture is all dark oak. So we sanded it and restained it. It looks great now and matches but it was more work than we had bargained for, yet worth it rather than be annoyed that it didn't match."

Disappointed
Date: November 24, 2009
"After waiting for 2 months for delivery. I was disappointed with this purchase. It is crudely crafted; there are imperfections in the glass used in the doors. In some cases the pre-drilled screw holes in the back did not align with the back panels. I've had to purchase additional hardware to secure a door knob, since the tapped holes in the knob did not properly fit the provided screw.This item, although having good appearance, is found to be crude upon close inspection. I feel this item is overpriced."

Disappointed
Date: June 26, 2009
"Should have paid more attention to the bad reviews. This piece would be great if the finish was dark oak. Unfortunately, it is actually orange, and I do mean orange with wood grain. Try another finish. Other than that, it is just what I was looking for."

Poor Color
Date: April 21, 2009
"I was very disappointed in the color of the cabinet. In the ad it was described as "dark Oak". I have a dark oak bedroom set and it would have fit in well. When I opened the box the color was not dark oak, it was "RED" oak. I was very disappointed in the color and there was no way it would fit in with our other furniture."

Great Purchase
Date: September 12, 2008
"I bought this bookcase for my parents' anniversary. It's really nice! I've purchased other items from Home Decorators and they've all been wonderful. This bookcase was fairly easy to put together (took about 45 minutes with all the parts), just follow the instructions step-by-step. The glass doors give it a very polished/upscale look. Great piece!"
