Just perfect to set beside my husbands new recliner. It holds his coffee cup, newspaper, any books he wants nearby. It doesnt take up a lot of room. It is real wood, and not the pressed wood that often has a chemical smell.
The shelf showed up with a sort of ding or smudge straight from the packaging, although there seemed to be no dents in the box, leading me to guess this wasnt something that happened in transit but rather a QA issue. This kind of item obviously isnt worth the cost to ship it back, so I guess Ill live with the ding.
It otherwise is a nice/simple side table, wish I could have rated it higher.
Easy to assemble and came with everything you need. Product was as described and the color is a little darker than in the picture, which I am extremely pleased with. Great size and convenient for small spaces as I am using it as a nightstand!
I really like this little shelf although it is quite small so you have to want a small shelf for a reason. It was a bit difficult to put together but nothing I couldnt handle eventually after some effort. Sits beside my bed and makes a good place to put the radio and some books and tissue boxes. Does collect dust so has to be dusted often if that bothers you. Otherwise a great little wooden bookshelf, a bit expensive for only getting 2 shelves to put things on and it is very small so be sure you want something this size before you buy.
Ive put together dozens of furniture pieces similar to this, and every one of them was simple to assemble if you had four hands on the job, and a pain, if you had only two hands. But when assembled, it does a very nice job of fitting into odd corners where there is not enough room for a full sized book case. It is reasonably strong for putting a lamp on it, but not a heavy piece of TV gear. Unless, as some reviewers had, you have a large number of over-sized books, I would not rate this highly as a bookshelf. Instead, it works much better as a shelf with the pair of baskets advertises along with it. I am using it as a side table by a rocking chair, and it is just the right height for TV and VCR controllers on top, with craft gear in the baskets underneath. The baskets are also the right size for weekly magazines, when you hold onto a few weeks of them at a time. For the price, a very nice piece, as long as you tighten all screws tightly.
I bought one of these to place beside an entry storage bench for additional storage. Very easy to assemble. I liked it so much I ordered another one. I added the closet maid fabric drawer on the bottom shelf to hold gloves, hats, scarves, etc.
The table is a little bit darker than the image. It was easy to assemble, I gave the task to my 15 yr old daughter and it took her less than 20 min to unpack, inventory parts, and assemble.

Real Wood, Perfect Addition for a Small Area.

Nice small bookshelf great for beside the bed

Typical do it yourself assembly. Good looking, once dusted and polished.

Storage shelf a good buy

Nice shelf / table
The table is a little bit darker than the image. It was easy to assemble, I gave the task to my 15 yr old daughter and it took her less than 20 min to unpack, inventory parts, and assemble.

Small, sturdy, looks good, easy to put together, and inexpensive. Very happy with the purchase.
