Good looking, solid, sturdy furniture
Great bookshelf. Went together easily. Directions were clear. Looks as good or better than the fully assembled furniture we have in our home. We liked it so much we ordered another one.

Basic Put Together Shelf
Once you measure the bookshelf then decide if it a good fit for you, see note below. This was a replacement for one that had be in place for about 10 years and was a bit of an upgrade. This is not a focal piece by any means but does the job just fine. I like the "lip" around the whole thing that gives a bit of dimension. I also like that at the middle (fixed) and bottom shelf there is an optional circle cut out if you want to place cords through. I had to do cutouts previously, so this was appreciated.There are reviews that seemed surprised at the size. The dimensions are included so I did something of a mock-up against a current bookshelf and was happy with the sizing. Why so many people buy things without fully measuring is a mystery for the ages. I know seeing is believing, but really it is not much effort to grab a tape measure from the kitchen drawer and reel it out...really it will help. If you still don't want to grab a tape measure, here is some more context...this will not go to your ceiling, and unless you are of shorter stature you might be taller than this bookshelf. I am about 5" 7" and this comes to my eyebrows, I can stand on tip toes and see the top, hope that helps :)Assembly was easy enough, it has the typical flimsy laminated cardboard back that uses a ton of small nails. And yes, the plastic feet are kind of awful, having matching feet would definitely be an improvement. Overall happy with the color, size and sturdiness of this bookshelf.

Utility, function and good looking
This is a sturdy bookcase with great instructions and a minimum of parts. Simple and easy to assemble. Deep shelves and nice finish too. This came very well packaged with all parts (and some extra hardware) present and no damage.

True to size, gave me extra bits and bobs incase I lost some.
The size of this bookshelf is about 5ft 5 inches with the legs on, and almost 30 inches wide. Pretty sturdy, comes with a little kit to fix it to the wall. Screws fit where they were supposed to and nothing broke. Order it in white and it came in the right color. Storage is great, adjustable shelves except for the middle one that holds it all together.

Solid piece of furniture
I purchased one of these last spring and love it so much I just got a second one. Very easy to assemble. Good quality, very sturdy, assembly instructions are easy to follow. Looks great in a guest bedroom.Update: March 2025. I purchased a third bookcase and a matching lateral file cabinet. This furniture is a great buy!

Sturdy. Great Value. Awesome Customer Service
I don't usually leave reviews but I was so happy with Bush Furniture's customer service and the bookcase looks great so I wanted to give their product a shout out.I actually received this bookcase with both side pieces cracked right across the middle. I suspect at no fault of Bush Furniture or Amazon, but most likely UPS, as I imagine this is a common problem with bulkier packages. Anyway, I was expecting to have to go through the trouble of shipping an 80lb box back to Amazon, but Bush Furniture had a flyer inside that asked to give their customer service a chance first if there were any problems. I figured why not, and I'm glad I did, as they shipped out both side panels promptly at no charge. You cannot take this kind of support for granted, even though many do, and I'm very happy they were willing to help out. Once I received the replacement side panels and assembled the bookcase I was very happy with how it looked. It's very easy to put together, and once it's complete it's very sturdy. For this price range, if you're considering this bookcase, I highly recommend it.
