Normally I don't leave reviews, but I wanted to for this bookshelf. I buy furniture mostly from West Elm and CB2, and something like this from their stores would be 5x the price. Honestly, this is just about as good. The shelves are composite, and the edges are sharp, but they are painted all around and look nice. It's sturdy (only needed two screws on each side at the top--I didn't even do the bottom), looks quite nice, and was super easy to put together! I recommend it if you want that sort of industrial glam decor.
