Great value! -
We bought one of these back in March, 2008 and I am getting ready to order another one. We need more dvd/cd storage. This unit is exactly what I expected for the price that I paid, and for the lightweight use for DVDs and CDs it works great! I wouldn't necessarily recommend using it for books or your priceless collection of Lladro figurines, but for DVDs and CDs it works great, and I've not had any problems with it coming apart or anything. I like that it matches the "entertainment center" that we bought for our LCD television. If you are looking for something to store your DVDs and CDS in, I would recommend this!

works fine with a little modification -
I bought two of these. Both of them came with screws that were far too small to hold the pieces together so I had to go to my parts drawer and get some real screws (#6 1-1/4" worked fine). All the parts on both units fit together well (although one of the units definitely had better quality-control than the other) and it only took about 10 minutes to assemble each of them. I did use the glue generously on the wood pegs and at each end of the uprights. You need to use the glue if you don't want it to wiggle.
I read about the trouble people were having with the shelves falling down and I think it's because the sides can bow outward easily. I overcame that by installing a screw at the mid-point of each upright on the back side, and then tying the two screws together with a piece of picture hanging wire across the back of the unit. Now the sides can't bow out.
With the modifications, the shelf is very sturdy. I had all of the stuff lying around so it didn't add any cost, and it added an extra 10 minutes to the set-up time.
It's definitely not a showy unit, but it's fine for the price. Anything this cheap is going to have issues, but some of them can be overcome pretty easily.

this shelf sucks -
This bookshelf sucks, ive had it for less then2 weeks and its already fallen apart. don't let the price fool you, its garbage. if your considering buying this item think again unless you want to trhow your money away

Horrible Quality and Construction -
Buyer beware! I usually don't review items, but this one was so bad that I couldn't help but want to warn anyone who is thinking of purchasing it! The quality and construction of this unit is horrible. The screws did not even stay in the fake wood. (I knew this wasn't solid wood, but usually, screws will take). After putting it "together", it LITERALLY fell apart as soon as I picked it up to move it to the spot where it was going. The back panel came in broken and the shelves were rough. Also...the unit does not hold as many DVD's as advertised...at least not in an upright position. The shelves aren't evenly distributed so the last shelf holds the DVD's laying down. Overall....this product is not worth the already cheap price! It's truly a case of "you get what you pay for!". I returned mine and got a really nice piece from Target for a few bucks more!!

cheaply made -
This product has already fallen apart, and all I have in it is DVD's. I would not recommened this product to anyone, since it is junk.
