(More customer reviews)A good deal for the price. There were a few spots that needed touch ups, but a pen was included for just that. Very nice for a youth's room.

With bold, clean lines and a rich cherry finish, this attractive 39-inch bookcase headboard lends a sense of contemporary charm to any bedroom or guest room. The unit's durable engineered-wood construction carries the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification and resists everyday wear and tear, while its gently flared side paneling adds a touch of distinction. Equipped with fixed shelving that makes up three divided cubbies, the headboard provides a convenient way to round up bedroom clutter, supplying plentiful space for stashing books, toys, stuffed animals, and more. It also comes with a small hole in the back for running electrical cords, making it easy to display alarm clocks, radios, or reading lights. Best of all, the headboard's profiled edges and smooth corners protect against injury, rendering it a smart choice for children's bedrooms, playrooms, or guest rooms at Grandma's house. The unit pairs with the matching 39-inch footboard and rails from the Jumper Collection (sold separately) to create a complete bed. Fully assembled, the bookcase headboard measures 8-3/4 by 44-3/4 by 48 inches and carries a five-year warranty.

Bookcase Style Espresso Finish King Size Storage Headboard Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My husband and I are very pleased with our king size Monterey storage headboard in Espresso finish. The flat packed carton containing the headboard parts arrived from AAA furniture in excellent condition. The packaging was done very carefully with extra protection for the corners, and therefore, we received no damaged items. Upon unpacking and inspecting the contents of the box, we were very pleased to see that all the pre-drilled holes lined up correctly on the pieces, and there were no parts missing.
The directions for assembling the headboard were very easy to follow, but you will still need to pay attention to detail! We had a few "Aha!" moments but no major show-stoppers. You need TWO people to put this together successfully. Someone who is familiar with putting furniture together should find this a breeze. My husband and I worked as a team to put this headboard together in about an hour, with zero problems, and no arguments or swearing! It was probably the easiest bit of furniture assembly we have ever done.
The finished product looks very good in our modern / minimalist condo - we decided that we liked the headboard much better without the enclosed backing (so we left it off, on ours you can see the wall through the shelving) it looks much more clean and modern that way. If you are a more traditional style person, the backing should be attached to give a more solid wood look.
All in all, I gave this product five stars because:
(a) The finished headboard looks very nice - not cheap; it is crisp and modern
(b) It was so easy to put together
(c) The price was awesome!
I would recommend this headboard to a friend.

Winsome Wood 4-Shelf Narrow Shelving Unit, Espresso Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This shelf is durable and well put together. However, assembly IS required. You will be required to glue hefty pegs in place and to screw in some allen-hex screws.
This is made of real wood, not particle board, so you'll have to wiggle a little here and there to get it all lined up. Once it's in place, the screws hold it together snugly while the pegs dry.
The peg holes are a little oversized because it's consumer assembly, and you don't want someone breaking it with a hammer. As such, I recommend overuse of wood/white glue to fill the holes.
Once it's assembled, the "smart" thing to do is to wait a day or two for the glue to dry, and make sure there are no drips/runs.
However, I loaded mine up with books and equipment immediately and have been very happy with it over the last 6 months. I've moved it around, leaned on it, piled heavy books on top, etc.
Because it's open on the sides, the weight is much less than something more solid. The slats hold in most anything I'd want to put on the shelves. There's even a little room under it which I found was good for packing into a corner with a torchiere light, or for hiding misc stuff. YMMV as you might find it simply collects dust bunnies.
Either way, my unit does not wobble other than being tall and thin. It supports any book load I put on it, free-standing.
In summary, this is REAL WOOD, free standing, about 5' tall, and can be assembled by one person with a sore back in about 20 minutes with glue and an allen wrench. It can be carried by one person, but is stable on the floor.

Winsome Wood Shelf, Espresso Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We're a family of bookworms who've had to get creative about adding linear feet of shelving. We also love oversize hardbound books and folios, so we need sturdy storage. A few months ago, I found these low-rise units on Amazon and realized they would fit in some unused space under a picture window. I ordered a single unit as kind of a test run to see how I liked the shelf in person -- color, stability, durability.
That shelf rated a solid six stars. I easily assembled it solo (instructions call for two-person assembly); the wood pieces were true and of reassuring heft, so I was able to put heavy books on both lower shelves and smaller items surrounded by movable decorative bookends on the top shelf (you could easily leave it bare or put collectibles there).
Unfortunately, the second piece I ordered had flaws in terms of the coloring of the finish. Because two of the three shelves and both of the rear rails are reversible, I was able to minimize the visual impact. I'm using these as bookshelves, the color issue is not a problem, but I wanted to note it for those who may be considering leaving most of the wood visible. Winsome's basket sets certainly would cover any areas and are designed to work with this line of shelves.
After a vigorous internal debate, as hinted at by the title of this review, I've given this shelf four stars. For me, the positives outweigh the negatives. It's sturdy, it's solid wood, I love the espresso tone, and it's a good value. As of this writing in May 2009, this product is sorted into the "bathroom" category and it does seem as though it would handle the humidity. However, to my mind it is well suited for a bedroom, living room or home office.

Winsome Wood 3-Shelf Wide Shelving Unit, Espresso Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was a little leery about ordering this bookcase as the other review said it was wobbly. But it exactly fit in the small area I needed - 25 inches, so I ordered it anyway. Also, it was on sale on the Friday specials, so the price was very reasonable. I am so glad I purchased this item as it is fantastic! Very well built, does not wobble at all, the finish on it is beautiful with no flaws - a nice espresso dark color. I even bought the two baskets that fit on the bottom shelf, and it makes for a beautiful bookshelf unit. Don't hesitate to purchase it if you are looking for a small bookcase for a small area. You will be very happy with how well built this book case is.
