5-Tier Industrial Vintage Bookshelf by OIAHOMY - Perfect for Home and Office Organization

Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer: This review is about 2 years after purchase BUT we recently moved, and I thought about the quality of them after they survived bad movers and a U-Haul. These shelves are amazing. Purchased in 2021 they are still in great shape. Sturdy and still look great in my office space. Well worth the purchase, the movers not so much. I bought three and recommend all shapes and sizes.

Alyssa Padgett: Love these shelves. Ordered one to start with and it looks great - the top is perfect for decorations. We have a windmill clock on top of it. Ordered a second one to match because I have too many books. Only issue I have is that my cats like to hang out behind the books, but that's not the bookshelves fault!

Kirsten R.Kirsten R.: Not difficult to assemble. My only complaint is it looks a bit more orange than the wood in the pictures

R. Burger: When you get done assembling this bookshelf you'll have a very sturdy and functional piece.
I did find some quirks in the assembly process.

In the first step of attaching the top half to the bottom half, make sure that the 4 holes that the cross supports attach to are on the same side. The directions don't alert you to this detail. You have a 50% chance of getting it right even if you don't check. In Mercy's review she said two of the holes for the cross support were missing. Possibly true, also possible that the top half needed to be disassembled and rotated 180 degrees. I was unlucky and had to reassemble mine just when I thought I was close to done.

The metal parts of this contraption are pretty soft. They will be plenty sturdy enough, but everything from the screws to tools to support bars are made of cheap metal. This means you should not attempt to tighten anything very hard - it will strip. The structure will be plenty strong with just gentle tightening.

Get yourself a longer and harder 5/32" hex wrench. The cheap wrench they include degrades and starts to slip very quickly.

One of my wooden shelves was lacking a hole. I tried to use a wood...

Mark T. FordMark T. Ford: I rarely write reviews because I expect a quality product at a good price. The OIAHOMY Industrial Bookshelf exceeded my expectations.

First, the "not so good"... Some people might not like the way this shelf looks. I'm not a huge fan of the style and coloration of the "wood" but it's OK and many will like it.

Now for the "neutral"... Some reviewers knocked this set of shelves because they had a hard time putting it together. While time consuming, I did not have many struggles with it. I bought two of these shelves and then a few weeks later bought a third so I've had some practice with assembling these and I provide a few (helpful?) hints. First, after getting the side rails bolted together, turn them up-side-down and put the bottom shelves and rods on first. After getting three shelves put on, turn the unit over to finish the job - a lot less bending over. Also, leave bolts just a bit loose and then tighten everything up once assembled. I made the mistake of tightening everything down as I went on my second unit and it made it much, much harder to assemble (there was no "wiggle room" or play and it was hard to line things up.)

Now, for the good... There are...
