Rolanstar Bookshelf 5 Tier with 4 Hooks, Industrial Wood Bookcase, Vintage Storage Rack with Open Shelves, Rustic Standing Bookshelves Display Rack for Living Room, Bedroom, Rustic Brown

This is really a beautiful shelf. I bought 2 of them for my booths in a store and they have been perfect. They are well made and the color is exactly as pictured. They were easy to put together and are very sturdy. I have no complaints. I would definitely reorder them.

Perfect width and height for a bedroom bookcase between two doorways, with room for artwork above.However, even though I highly recommend this bookcase there are several issues which the manufacturer should address.1) The wooden bottom shelves, and side and back pieces are of such different sizes that they can’t be confused with each other.Consequently, they don’t need, in my opinion, all those small round identification stickers. If you do think these are needed, you need to find less sticky ones. These stickers peel off effortlessly from the metal side pieces, but most seemed to be glued to the wood. (The large tip warning peeled off the wood fine)Until (or if) the manufacturer fixes this, remove the stickers from the wood before assembling each piece. As these stickers are affixed willy-nilly, those that are in edges are the most difficult to remove if an adjoining piece partly covers it.Use a damp cloth with a bit of dishwashing liquid to scrape off these stickers. If you use your finger mail directly, you might gouge the wood. You will also need to use this damp cloth to remove the residue from the sticker.Where a sticker would have been useful would be to differentiate the front and back of the side support metal pieces. I mistakenly finished the bookcase in the reverse so that the final step, attaching the cross metal support arms would have been in the front of the bookcase, and I had to partially disassemble, reverse, flip and repeat.(Even so, it still took me longer to remove the stickers from the wood than this extra work!)To easily identify the “back” of the side metal frame — the attached screws to these sections will be at the back of the bookcase, and thus the back of each bookcase shelf with the wooden back lip will also be installed above and below these framework screws.Otherwise, great value - solid piece — and attractive. And if the manufacturer can find less sticky stickers, they will deserve that 5th star which I debated taking away.

A handsome little shelf unit. Good value, doesn't scream "cheap", has strong shelves that don't sag. Easy to assemble.

I’m impressed with the material and weight of this bookshelf. I bought this bookshelf along with the“Rolanstar Bookshelf, 5-Tier Storage Rack, Narrow Corner Bookshelf” for my books and general items (printer & sewing box), and the metal with this bookshelf is significantly better. The wood shelves are the same and the build is almost similar between items, but I want to note the sturdiness of the metal that comes with the larger piece. Definitely worth the $130 price tag.I’m very happy with this bookshelf, but I do want to warn folks to PAY ATTENTION to the instructions. I thought I knew what to do because I built the smaller version just the day before, and, while it’s close, the instructions are different. Read all of the instructions and pay attention between step 5 and 6! While the instructions rely on photos, the instructions are very clear. Don’t be a dummy like me and charge forth without reading the next step or you will have to deconstruct and reconstruct your bookshelf. Thankfully, I didn’t get too far before realizing my error.I also appreciate how everything was clearly labeled and the instructions were easy to follow—if you can build an IKEA shelf, you got this! I do recommend having another person around to help line up the poles, but I managed to build this shelf by myself within 1.5 hours—note that this time includes messing up/fixing, pausing to grab extra tools, and a snack break.

Overall, I am very pleased with this product. I took on assembling this on my own, which was ambitious as to be honest I've never really put together something as big as this. The manual was filled with pictures, and was very easy to follow. I am a 5'4" tall woman, and as it is taller than me, it was a little awkward at times, and I completed the whole shelf in about 2 and a half hours. I had trouble with the wooden backings (labeled 3 in the manual) and couldn't get the screws through completely, which I pictured here. This could be my own inexperience at fault, but if not, it doesn't really affect the integrity of the whole shelf anyway. It's quite sturdy in all other aspects!It has a lot of room for my books, and I love the way you can see through the open sides. There's a lot of room in front of my books on the shelves, which creates a space for me to decorate as I please, which is amazing. I love the hooks that are included! Amazing touch and very handy. Another thing I will say is the shelves themselves are a darker brown than the pictures show- the color I ordered is rustic brown. It still looks very nice, just know to expect that. I definitely recommend this, but maybe ask a friend for help in putting it together!

I needed a basic book shelf to put off in the corner of my bedroom. It is not fancy, but works perfectly for my needs. I like how each shelf has 3 sides to keep the books from falling off. Directions were clear and concise making it easy to put together. So far, it seems sturdy enough.

Love this! Looks really nice, sturdy, well made, and very easy to assemble!

These are probably the best bookshelf’s on the market for the price, in fact they are the only ones I buy now owning six all together. They are very tall and sturdy and the built in bookend type things work wonderfully. The only issue is sometimes the metal isn’t perfectly cut to go into another part seemlessly so you have to beat it into it with a mallet. Organization wise the space between shelf’s are ample, I’ve get to find something that’s too big.
