The back was a little flimsy but overall great value

Nice looking and decently built shelf overall, but the red color is absolutely not as advertised - it is actually lighter and more orange versus the dark cherry pictured in the listing. Doesn't match my existing dark cherry furniture as a result, so eclectic room it is... Assembly directions were straightforward, but no pre-drilled holes for attaching the back of the shelf - do yourself a favor and have a power drill handy.

I bought 3 of them. Nice bookshelves. Perfect for where I needed them. Only complaint is screw holes being seen. Wish they came with stickers to cover them all.

I have lots of books and they just look so good on this book shelf easy to assemble and spacious and very sturdy

2 stars for appearance/look, and some functionality. Unfortunately the shelf depth is shallow, so larger books need to be laid flat, otherwise they stick out. MDF product with Paper laminate -tears easily during assembly. The backing is held together by tape which spontaneously peels apart, had to get duct tape to tape over the backing tape to get it to stay fixed. I didn't want to have a tall bookcase/anchor to a wall; so I set it up as two smaller bookcases - one of which has an open base at the bottom for basket/box storage. You have to align the backing parts carefully to make this work.
