Review: Sleek and chic, low profile bookshelves - Very happy with how these turned out. Some of the legs were not 100% straight, so screwing them in was a challenge. For the price, though, the results are great. It also is pretty low profile in terms of depth, so fits very well where I wanted them, behind a closet door. The bottom shelf height is perfect for clearing my high baseboards. Assembly was pretty straightforward. It definitely helped that I had an electric drill with the right bit for an Allen wrench head thingy. It probably would have been easier if I had 2 people, particularly to prop the shelf up and hold in place while screwing into the wall. Overall a good find on desertcart!
Review: Easy to build - The bookcases were easy to build and actually look very nice and modern. The only problem is, one of the bookcases wasn't as well put together as the other three (I ordered four) and was damaged (metal scratched/grooved at the side of one of the shelves), which was such a shame, as they were not cheap.
