Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The casual home 5-shelf ladder bookcase is a simple and attractive bookshelf. The wood feels sturdy and is evenly stained with no blemishes, dents, or dings in the wood. Each shelf is durable enough to hold a good number of decor pieces and books.

The expresso color is nice and richly toned. It fits small areas perfectly snug. The espresso is a deep, dark rich brown.



Cons

It's not easy to assemble if you're doing it by yourself. You have to screw it into the wall and the pieces they give you are cheap and won't hold. The shelves do not fit together, the seams do not line up and leave half inch gaps.

The quality of the build/parts is less than desirable, while the actual wood itself is decent. It is more fragile than a composed / compressed / engineered wood. The sturdiness of it is not the best. It's not sturdy at all.

Even though it was packaged well, there are nicks and scratches. I now have to buy wood scratch markers/crayons to fill in the chips to make it seem new.

Quality


Pleasantly surprised by the quality of this product and looks great in my apartment.


Thus far, very happy with the performance and appearance of this ladder shelf.


The dovetail can lift with the slightest pull upward, resulting in the top portion of the shelf coming apart from the bottom portion.

Shipping


The shipping was quick and i am satisfied with my purchase.

Packaging/appearance


The only confusion i had (and it's because i'm a goof) was which was the shelfs went.

Competitiveness


It is now holding my anime figures and works great, i'm pretty sure it can hold 15lbs per shelf.


Very easy to assemble took me less than 30 mins

    The construction of connecting the top and bottom pieces together is not so great

    Otherwise i have to rely on the weight of the objects on the shelf to ensure the top doesn’t fall off


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I guess i’ll be looking for something different


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Sturdy but i don’t like the fact you can see the gold screws from the side should had something we could cover it up so they are not seen


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Used a drill instead of the alan wrench and didn’t take long


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Just the top board was fussy but that could have been my error and going too fast
