Sauder Barrister Lane Storage Bookcase with ID Label Tags, Salt Oak Finish

Was pleasantly surprised by this piece. It looks great and for the price you can't beat it!! Bought this for kid books in an upstairs sitting area. We have a historic home and this goes perfect with it. Going to order a couple more for my downstairs office. Also, I put this together myself in less than 2 hours.

I had been looking for bookcases to line a huge wall in my living room. I have many books and love the look of a ceiling to floor library. I bought this one to put in the middle of the two tall ones, and I have my TV on top. I rent so I didn't want to invest in hanging my flat screen as I won't be here long. This works perfectly. It sits up just about as high as it would be if I hung it. It was delivered in about 5 days, packaged well, but UNBELIEVABLY HEAVY. I'm a nurse, and pretty strong, but I could BARELY even drag it inside my apartment from right outside my door. Don't be intimidated by the amount of screws and pieces, just follow the directions step by step and it goes together really easy. I'm pretty handy, but the directions are very good and easy to follow. I have to say that every single predrilled hole was EXACTLY in place. They say you only need a screwdriver to put together, which is true, but goes quicker and much easier with a cordless. I searched the web initially as they were out of stock on the salt oak, and walmart beat everyone else by $40 to $200, and they had free shipping. Some sites wanted as much as $90 to ship, which I can almost understand with how much it weighed. Needless to say, I love it, it looks beautiful, and the shape is a bit different from what you usually see. The color reminds me of driftwood, but obviously smooth to the touch. Looks great against boring beige walls, which most renters have, but not too dark and heavy looking. I would definitely by this brand again.
