Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this item at Target, but really like this bookcase so I thought I'd write a review since people probably browse through Amazon before buying a product (I know I do).
I needed an easy way to help organize my room, and this bookcase fit the bill. I was also interested in it to place under a window as a good way to utilize otherwise wasted space. When I first went to Target, it had already sold out, so I took that as a good indication of the popularity and quality of this product.
Given the price, I was expecting the construction to be on the cheap side, but it's better quality than I was expecting - the composite wood feels sturdy, and the overall construction feels strong. It isn't wobbly at all. I have no qualms about putting a really heavy all-in-one printer on it.
The assembly was also very easy. The instructions were clear and I had no problems putting this together by myself. The only tools you need are a hammer and screwdriver. You could probably put it together in less than an hour. I actually had fun putting it together. But I'm kind of weird and enjoy doing hands-on crafty stuff. :)
The main thing to note is that the back panels aren't made of wood and are actually cardboard that's been painted black. I thought that was kind of tacky, at first, but I don't mind it since it kept the cost down (I bought this for $40). Plus, you wouldn't notice it in a room since it's in shadow anyway.
I think the fabric drawers are a great addition to this bookcase, but are not necessary to make full use of it. Still, if you can get them cheap (I got them for about $5 each, maybe even $3 due to a sale) I'd recommend them, as they really look nice with the case. :)
So if you want an easy, nice looking, cheap case that just works and holds all your junk, I'd heartily recommend this one. It also gives my room a slightly modern edge to it that I love. :)
