48 in. Espresso Wood 4-shelf Standard Bookcase with Adjustable Shelves

Good product but the only issue I had was that it did not include the letters on the pieces to assemble it. The instructions booklet was helpful but challenging since I wasn't sure what pice was A or B. Besides that good product I am glad for the outcome.

It is solid wood and was fairly easy to assemble by myself. My one disappointment was that none of the shelves is tall enough to hold my large books upright, so I had to lay them flat, which is not too big of a deal. The description of the bookcase didn’t include shelf heights. I really liked picking it up at my local Home Depot and saving the shipping charges.

The sides and shelves are all real wood. However the back is made of very thin plywood/pressed wood. I purchased the 72 inch tall bookcase. If you are looking for a stable bookcase, do not purchase this. It wobbles forward even when filled with books. It will need attached to a wall for stability. When assembled and painted, the bookcase looks excellent from the front - very nice and expensive looking. (It's too bad it's not a higher quality). There was a defect on the bookcase I received. There was a metal piece that was put in the wrong hole where the pegs for the shelves are supposed to be inserted. I didn't notice it until pushing the shelf into place which caused a hole through the other side of the wood. I'm not able to put holes in the wall to secure the bookcase.. I'm not sure how I'm going to keep it stable.

I never write reviews because basically I am never satisfied but this is by far the best quality boxed furniture I have ever bought. I was amazed at the details. The instructions were typical. The wood was real and the extras and hardware were a plus. I am so impressed.

I love the bookcase. It is solidly built and fits my space perfectly. I will absolutely be ordering more. The only complaint is that the shelves aren't adjustable enough to allow for tall books, but that is easily remedied by laying the tall books flat. Overall, I am very happy.

This bookcase is very well made. I ordered the 36-inch and 72 inch. All the parts were there and it went together very easily. This is the only bookcases that I could find that were actually wood not that cheap particle board. I ordered them unfinished because I want to paint them antique white to match my TV console. I wouldn't hesitate to buy these books cases because they're actually very well made and look beautiful. Photo shows them unfinished. My husband put them together so I think it's best that if you're a woman who isn't strong enough to use the Allen wrench to tighten the screws you should find someone to put them together for you. They were well packed and protected from damage but the boxes were a little opened when they were delivered. The shipper should secure the the boxes better with more tape. UPS man had a difficult time with delivering the 72 inch because it's a two-man job. The 72 inch should be delivered by Home Depot by 2 men. Do not put these bookcases together in your home. I would advise to put them together in a garage with the door open or outside because they contain formaldehyde which is a wood preservative. They need to be put together in a ventilated area. When you finish them or paint them it will seal them and then you don't have to worry about the formaldehyde.

Real wood, well designed and well built, and very pretty. Painted them white to match the room... Love them!

The unfinished version was well-prepped to take a Tung Oil finish. I gave it a 4 instead of 5 because the actual shelf dimensions are 9.625" x 28.25” not 12 x 32”. Recommend installing the wall brackets to prevent tipping as it is a bit unstable. Use a drill as the wood screws are not pre-drilled

I purchased three of these at separate times within the last year. The first two were perfect. Took the stain beautifully and assembly wasn't difficult once we figured out what we were doing. However, the third one had several issues with it that I didn't notice until I was well into staining it. There were imperfections in the wood on one of the sides (but it's the inside, so not a big deal) and the back of the top piece was cracked. Then, once we assembled it, we realized the front of the top piece doesn't sit flush with the rest of the bookcase on one side.

When I picked up bookcase, I was a little concerned. Box looked rough, it was beat-up pretty bad. I was relived after unpacking. I put on two coats of polyurethane, and light sanding. Good instructions, all hardware included, and smooth assemble. This thing is rock solid, and just what my son needed for his books.
