I just hope the split wood won't give way to the weight of the books and collapse

Great value and pretty wood

It is heavy wood, easy to put together, super sturdy, and GORGEOUS.

The hole drilled on the second shelf left was drilled into a piece of faulty wood and split

Finally got it and it had scratches on the wood (which is cheap wood blreda that somjg easily.) not worth the money I spent

You really need a rubber mallet to hammer these things on so as not to damage the wood.

They were incredibly inexpensive, but real wood

Take the instruction s seriously when it says to protect the wood when putting it together because I scratched mine up without realizing it, but that was completely my own fault

Super easy assembly, really nice, strong wood, and perfect black color

We had to send back one because the holes were not pre-drilled out properly and the wood started to crack

Great quality , solid wood, easy assembly and arrived well ahead of estimated date

Actual wood, was impressed by quality.

The wood is fairly soft, but if you're not going to mess with it much, it should serve your needs just fine.

Wood is quite soft - I don't expect these shelves to last long

Not solid wood but for cheap

Poor quality wood, but for the price it's not bad.

Looks more expensive than it is, really good price for solid wood

It is made of very soft, dry wood.

WOOD NOT WOOD VENEER AND VERY NICE FINISHED

Wood is soft so make sure to align screws properly on the predrilled holes

I FOUND ONE NAIL MISSED THE WOOD

The colour matches the rest of the dark wood in our home, and I am simply impressed with how it

Good product solid wood walnut looks cherry

Easy to assemble strong and pretty wood

The wood itself was so desiccated that the varnish crumbled into flakes when I began to assemble the shelf

They are highly visible as the stain is dark & wood underneath is light

BUT ... the wood is VERY soft, like pine.

Made with solid wood

It is made of solid wood.

As far as quality, it is definitely worth the price I spent on in (less than $75), because the shelves are solid wood and they won't bow anytime soon like particle board (I assume)

The wood is very sturdy and not what you would expect for the price

Excellent looking solid wood book shelf!

I will have to modify it with additional support if the split wood fails.

I was looking for solid wood construction that was

It is very cheap wood and as you screw the pieces together you have to make sure you don't splinter the wood.

For this price to be all solid wood with no veneer, it's a good deal.

Very sturdy, solid wood with a nice finish

It's solid wood with a stain finish.

Plus it was damaged... box side punctured with 5 to 6 hole, dented the wood inside...

Though they are real wood (a huge benefit), they are light and easy to move

Arrived quickly and looks really nice, solid wood and stable.

Apparently the screws they supplied for attaching the shelves are too large and split the wood

I did notice though that you must be extremely cautious when inserting & tightening the screws as the wood will start to split if tightened too much, as other reviews had stated

It’s has a beautiful wood finish

I love that it is solid wood and not compressed particle board.

The one complaint is that the top shelf screw holes did not line up but my husband said the wood was soft enough that my husband was able to expand the holes without a big issue

Also, when it says "Do not over-tighten", pay attention, as the wood can be easily split with the force applicable through the allen key.

It's solid wood

Love the solid wood construction!

Real wood, stable enough

nice quality wood

And finally, it is NOT solid wood from any tree that ever lived in this world.

I got the dark wood

Decent wood, nice look

The size I wanted; for the price it is excellent, solid wood w/decent finish, all joints and holes precision cut.

Overall, pretty sturdy but lightweight, and solid wood makes it worthwhile.

The wood is nice and looks fine, it's just that the whole thing doesn't fit together right

Solid wood

cheap wood, loose fit.

Great little wood bookcase

The wood looks nice and the bookcase is solid

Ours split the wood a fraction because they were just too big.

The last criticism is that the wood (wow, REAL wood

It's made of solid wood, not MDF

Solid wood construction, though finger-joints are visible.

It is made of solid wood

This items is beautiful, solid stained wood without that cheap varnished look

Packaged well, great quality wood.

This solid wood construction seems to be holding up a lot better than the cheap kind, and it looks great!

Sturdy, all wood, looks great, easy to assemble, and a good value for the price.

Solid wood, really good item

It is all made of good quality wood but be aware that is very light weight

The wood is flimsy and the finish is not uniform.

or maybe I should just take this pile of cheap wood and throw into garbage and be done with it.

I ordered it because it is solid wood and not plastic or veneer.

Very nice, real wood bookcase

There are many complaints about defective products, but I've ordered several on overstock and Amazon- depends on prime shipping and actual costs-- and the wood hasn't been damaged

I ordered the walnut expecting the dark, rich wood tones shown in the photos - which would match many of the dark finished wood furniture in my apartment

If not you will split the wood ."Do not use your drill driver or wood may split

I found using a mallet was easy enough to get them tight, but I would not try to drive them all in very deep to avoid splitting the wood.

Beware the wood will crack quite easily.

Solid wood

Cheap wood and really badly/quickly "finished"

Cheap wood but holds up as expected

I was a little worried because the price was so cheap but this littleBookshelf isSolid wood and is the perfect size.

For about two weeks I could smell the wood.

Bad return policy, wood is loose and junky

Solid wood cannot be beat.

Solid wood construction, easy to put together, love the way it looks!
