I'm really mystified as to why nobody has written a review on this item up until now. It is really fantastic, and at a great price. I was wary of ordering at first because I found the lack of reviews suspicious, but now I'm over the moon. The wood is solid and a beautiful soft finish. Best of all, it is extremely sturdy, and therefore good for holding up books. The design is also fairly modular, so you can set it out however you wish. Such a good buy!
