 Not bad but... Mar 11, 2009
By M
"bogwolf"
The wood is quality and easy enough to assemble, looks good. The only negative for me are the shelf brackets which are all plastic and rated 5 lbs per in capacity. I sheared off a couple putting text books in my class and have since been to the hardware store for metal posts (rated at 25 lbs per).

 Garbage Mar 18, 2011
By D. Hackenson
This is one of the worst pieces of furniture I've ever purchased. The materials and construction are subpar at best, and hardly worth $10, much less $100.
There is not one lick of solid wood in the entire package. The veneer would be attractive if it weren't poorly applied and peeling off the back edges of the bookshelf. Most of it is crafted from some kind of pressboard with the mechanical properties of lightly cooked spaghetti. The shelves bow under their own weight (forget about putting books on them!), and this contributes to the predictable failure of the equally awful cheap plastic shelf pegs.
If bumped, the whole bookshelf bends and flexes like a sprig of tall grass, threatening to collapse under its own weight. Even after I added 1x2 wood braces and metal angle brackets in key locations, I'm still somewhat hesitant to use this to store anything of value.
I would caution anyone thinking about buying this bookshelf for, *gasp*, books, to think very carefully before forking over any cash.

 Oak Book Shelf Oct 05, 2009
By Catherine A. Decarlo
"catmon"
The book shelf arrived very quickly. It was very easy to assemble and took less than 30 minutes. It is a perfect size for my living room and very attractive. It fits my decore. It is sturdy and well made. I would recomend this to anyone looking for shelves to display books or pictures or anything. Well worth the price. A good looking piece of funriture for a good price.

Prepac Bookcase Apr 14, 2009
By Neanderthal Guy
Many sellers for this bookcase on Amazon, all vary in price and shipping. Generally, the higher the price, the lower the shipping. Got mine from "Tots to Teens" without problem. When you receive it, it is very easy to put together and fairly solid - with one glaring exception. The back panel is only wood-colored cardboard. Granted, the back of the cardboard is generally against a wall and the front (where the coloring matches the wood and grain) is partially hidden by shelves and contents, but still a disappointment. And it means being gentle if you ever need to move the bookcase.

EXCELLENT OAK BOOKCASE!!! May 09, 2007
By Socrafty18
I was so tired of looking at bookcases that either was flimsy or the wrong color and then I found this one on line. I am very happy as it is heavy duty and though the moldings were missing got prompt attention to correct that. I will seek them out for anything in that line that I need.
