It's very sturdy and well built, but the color is totally different from the image on the website. This is a very dark brown, there is no bookcase that is the light brown that the image shows. Go by the pictures from reviewers here, it is a very dark brown bookcase. If you can get past that, it is a nice strong bookcase. The veneer is kind of dull and rough as if it were real wood, which I like. I just wish it was light brown like the picture promises

Nice solid weight and looks high quality. Pretty easy to assemble, directions were clear and it feels like it will be sturdy for a long time.

Looks wonderful in my baby’s nursery. Holds lots of books with room for more as we add to his collection!

We used it in our nursery! Very easy to assemble looks super cute.

Love my bookcase from Severus. Sturdy construction, adjustable shelf! I love keeping things organized and it’s pretty besides!
