superbe ! et facile à assembler

BEWARE the most fragile legs in all the land. So disappointed by the material choice for the legs of this shelf. Original leg broke while building it, replacement leg broke in transit.

The legs are not sturdy. I had to remove them. Assembly is simple but takes some time.

Love the look, and it was just the size I was looking for, but not super impressed with the quality for the price. It was difficult to get together because the pre-drilled holes weren’t always lined up.

I would give this a 4.5 stars. The package arrived much earlier than expected. The box was compact and seemed to be sufficiently well-packed to prevent damage. The majority of the directions were straightforward and easy for 1 person to construct the bookcase (but it's faster to have 2 people). The only confusing part was installing the legs because the bookcase is constructed with the front facing the ground and because the legs are at slanted angles, it was a bit difficult to figure out which ways each legs should be facing. It took a couple tries to get them all right and in the end it was not a huge deal but it would've been a time saver to have some sort of indicator on each leg as to where it went and the direction it faced. As a previous reviewer mentioned, the shelf would be nicer with real marble, but the contrast in color from the wood is still a pretty effect. Thus far, the shelves seem quite sturdy (nearly half loaded with books of various sizes and weights and small trinkets and picture frames). Given the top two shelves are open in the back, I chose to put it against a non-white wall. Overall, I'm happy with the bookcase, especially the mid-century design.
