Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I just received and assembled this bookcase and am very pleased. What I wanted in a bookcase was something that was tall enough and sturdy enough to hold a lot of books, not look too bad, and importantly not be so heavy that it was a pain to move. This bookcase nicely fills the bill. It has five big shelves, all steel construction, yet it weighs only 31 pounds.
The steel shelves snap onto steel tubes that are bolted securely to the side rails by long heavy bolts. While there are no diagonal cross members, the bookshelf when assembled is quite sturdy because there are a total of 15 horizontal members. The steel shelves are made of heavy gauge steel perforated by a lot of small holes and feel quite sturdy. All pieces were 100% painted. I had no problem assembling it. It is made in Taiwan.
Comparable wooden bookcases are all much heavier. A problem I found with the less expensive wooden bookcases was that the weight handling ability of the shelves was suspect. These bookcases often use flimsy plastic brackets that poke into small holes in the side wood to hold up the shelves.
