The white distressing effect is kind of sketchy. I ordered two and one came with a smear of black paint (or whatever) in a prominent area at the top. I will need to find a matching paint to touch it up. Otherwise, for $20 each, they match the room and seem sturdy enough to hold a photo(s) or a few little things.

Love this little shelf. It's cute and just perfect for small items.

This is a very cute piece

This shelf looks beautiful, but installation was more difficult than expected. It was challenging to align and level the two wood pieces during assembly. I also don’t feel the base is sturdy enough to handle the pressure of a traditional pump hand soap dispenser. To avoid putting stress on it, I switched to an electric soap dispenser. I additionally secured the shelf with an extra screw underneath to prevent movement. While it may not be ideal for this specific purpose, it does look very nice once installed.

I do love the look of it, but it arrived without pre-drilled holes. Because you have to screw in the screws from the back, and the whole assembly has to balance on the teeny edge of the shelf, and then the scrolled wood design may or may not be centered and aligned with the shelf, it's not for someone who has no way to figure it out with tools. My son was able to figure out where the holes should be (how far apart from the center) and then marked those for me to drill into. Now, then the holes in the decorative part weren't large enough all the way through. They got very small towards the front of the scroll section, so I drilled out some of that as well. The shelf seems soft material, and I was worried about splitting the wood, but the shelf part is verrry soft wood. It won't split. My picture with the "A" sticker is where the holes should have been. It might be fine with not pre-drilling, therefore, but how to hold it all steady while you do? You can't balance it together. If it wasn't this cute I would have sent it back. Three stars to prevent others who may not have the skill to assemble it without it being out of square. Oh, and 2 screws to put it together, and one extra screw -- but it takes two screws to hang it because on the back there isn't one in the center, but two spaced apart. Either it's an extra screw, or missing a screw. I put it up with tiny command hooks in the two screw hangers.
