Red Mustang: Assembly was fairly easy. Well numbered and thoughtful design. I liked it more than the ones from IKEA.
Looks good and feels sturdy.
Didn’t expect much but very satisfied.

I wish they make coffee table as well. Came back to sunon looking for a coffee table but apparently they don’t make them.

Android: Plywood and thus heavy but sturdy. Quite nice looking

Winnia Zhang: Best price for a bookcase this good quality. Love it after we built it. But the delivery was not so pleasant. First it was delayed then it went to a warehouse without trying to delivery to my house like all other Amazon Prime purchases. We had to find a proper vehicle and go get the bookcase and haul it back home. Never happened to me before, and I have been a Prime member for a couple of years now.

CarterCarter: The material it's made of is a mix between particle and OSB board, so it's quite dense and sturdy (obviously not solid oak but still very well manufactured). No board deformation in shipping and no pieces missing. The color and finish is good, simple veneered sides but smooth and rounded well. A nice grey color is a little harder to find than I thought. Size is great for what I needed.

Now onto the build...For starters, some instructions are using the wrong diagrams or calling out wrong holes, it's not a complex build so it isn't too hard to figure out (only like 2 types of fasteners). Let me get to the point, the two sides are not actually screwed in or truly connected at all, it's basically pinned. This means that they are VERY prone to just falling out. It also makes it incredibly hard to move the thing as it like moving two slats flat handed and holding them parallel across a wide gap. Really dumb to not have true screws or some type of labyrinth connection. I had to drill in two screws to the middle and bottom shelves (the main connection ones to the sides) and now I have no worries. And finally, the backing. For one, it is skinny and flimsy. It was...

SJSJ: This is a very good shelf. The boards are sturdy and the color/pattern is very pleasing. I got 2x5 tier shelves and there was no damage. The materials were well packed and labeled. Very easy to put together!

***There's one important aspect of assembling this shelf, the cam screws:
The cam screws they use are different than the others. Once slide in, you must screw it to allow the end to expand into the board.
This is NOT written in the instructions booklet. I originally gave this shelf a 2 star due to the missing instruction. Unlike the regular cam screws where the holes are smaller than the screws themselves, so the end secures itself when you screw it into the hole, the included cam screws simply sit into the hole until you screw to expand the bottom part. I was too used to the regular way and assumed the holes were drilled too big and gave it a negative review. It did not occur to me to check the original listing for the instruction.
The seller kindly pointed out my mistake and now it does its job well! They also promised to add the instruction in the booklet in the future.

This is just a heads up for everyone else trying to put this...

tmok2000: So, I bought two of the 4-layer models in cherry color. They were delivered by FedEx. I was not happy with the delivery, because FedEx left the two boxes on my driveway in snow and sleet. I didn't realize it until hours later. Even though the boxes were soaked and frozen, the content inside was fine. I let everything dry overnight before assembling. The assembly of the first bookshelf was challenging. The hardest part was sliding the back board in. If you follow the instructions, there was just no way. Friction got in the way. There was just no way to push a thin layer of MDF through the entire length of tightly fitted tracks. Having realized this, I deviated from the installation instructions. The trick to success was to slide in the back board BEFORE tightening everything down. In fact, I didn't even install the bottom shelf until after the back board was in place. Needless to say, the assembly of my second unit went much faster. The book shelves look pretty nice. They are sturdy. For the price, they exceeded my expectation. I also like how they have leveling legs. That came in very handy for placing my two units side-by-side on an uneven...

CanadianMate: I bought this for 130$ a year ago. For that price it is a very good offer. The bookcase is stables, feels sturdy and spacious. I wanted to buy a second one and noticed however they raised the price to 250$. That is a complete joke, you can find bookcases of similar sturdiness and builds for 100-150$ at your local Canadian Tire, Walmart and Home Depot. I wanted to have a second one to match, but not at this price.
I also noticed there are very few bookcases on amazon lately and they are all heavily overpriced. You can find similar bookcases in amazon.co.uk for about 60 pounds which comes to about 100$ canadian (which is a reasonable price for a bookcase). It might cost you another 30$ for shipping, still way cheaper than this.
Otherwise, get some boards from home depot and build it yourself, will cost about 50$ in materials and will be real wood instead of particle board like most bookcases these days.

Val: I asked for this bookshelf for Christmas, mainly because I thought the color looked like it would match my weathered dark grey TV stand (which is really hard to find at a reasonable price apparently since I've been looking for MONTHS). When it came and I put it together, I was so happy with the match and the quality of the bookshelf I promptly ordered another.

This bookshelf honestly really impressed me. I didn't expect it to be furniture store quality for the price, but it is much closer to that than I ever would have guessed. I've had and put together at least four different particle board bookshelves (and several other pieces like night stands) in the past, and this one is by far the best. It still is particle board, but for some reason unbeknownst to me this bookshelf is so much heavier and sturdier than my other particle board pieces for some reason. It almost does feel like real wood. The back being strudy plastic instead of that thin cardboard that comes with Walmart and Target bookshelves is a huge plus as well.

The instructions are not very good and not very detailed, but I've done enough furniture assembly that I was still able to figure...
