    Recently put together and not yet heavily used, this shelf is a beautiful wood color. Wish it did have one more shelf and seemed sturdier. The back seems flimsy but with it being against the wall it won't be that noticeable.

    Received today and am impressed by the directions. When I unfolded the back panel for the bottom about a foot of it tore along the seam. I am also missing two shelf pins. Another topic. Is it possible to get another shelf and pins?

    I enjoyed assembling this bookcase with the three shelf case I bought at the same time. Once again, I have to say you could improve the design with a sturdier backing. It tore along the fold just by placing it before nailing. I enhanced your design by gluing and screwing and adding a stronger backing along with wood trim stained to match my existing cases.

    We have purchased this style before. They hold a lot of books. Our only complaint is that the quality of the cardboard back has declined. They used to be much heavier gauge. We needed to add reinforced tape to the bottom and top edges as they started to tear on the fold lines.

    Positive: Clear directions for assembly, shipped out very fast Middling-Negative: Particle board veneer is OK, but the back of the bookcase covering is cheap cardboard. It easily tears as you are trying to set it up. A thin wood sheet is called for.

    To stack books and other related supplies. Also the smell of pine and home welcoming fragrance that emanates really give a calming reception In the surrounding space and home. The price was affordable also.

    It's pretty good for use as a storage shelf, material quality is decent, assembly process wasn't perfect, and I accidentally put the back pieces on backwards. Overall not the worst piece of furniture I've ever had

    This is the 4th Sauder bookcase I have bought in 12 years and I don't think I would buy any other kind. Pretty easy to assemble (I'm 72 and did it). Looks so nice and holds all my many books (I used to work in a bookstore so I have a lot). Fits in my apartment and they look especially nice with two or more next to one another. Delivery was very prompt. Would highly recommend.

    I use the bookcases for storing pantry items and all kinds of odds and ends from around the house. I already purchased The width, depth and height are just right for my uses. The adjustable shelves (3 of 4) make for the best use of space for larger and smaller items. I already purchased 4 bookcases a couple years ago and now ordered 2 more, grateful the same style and color were still available. SPECIAL NOTE: I had a couple special request prior to placing me last order, and found Becky (Sauder Internet Representative) very accommodating.

    I needed bookcases, but my budget was tight. I found these and the price was great, so I ordered two. They arrived quickly, and assembly was easy. They are beautiful and look wonderful in my home.

    Downsized to very small house with very small closet space and no built-in shelving other than over hanging spaces. I bought this to put up against a narrow wall space for all my folding items. Was fairly easy for me to put together (82 years old widow).

    I bought the same bookcase one year ago to store fabric. Needed a match. The new one is not as sturdy. There are two sets of cam locs on the older one, which adds stability. The new one has one set.
