5.0 out of 5 stars Works great! Good quality shelving system.
Good shelving bookcase. I've have different shelving systems over my life and this one's good like the rest. I can more likely own this thing forever as long as I don't break it myself. It works for what I intended. The backer part (if used) is flimsy'ish material (like most or if not all shelving systems out there), so whatever you put on the shelves should not be pushed too terribly hard towards the back, or whatever you put on the shelves shouldn't rely much on the backer part to "stay propped up". I accidentally pushed something back kind of hard once and the backer sorta stayed "popped out" in shape and wasn't "laying flat" anymore because of the weight was pushing on it. The backer material is held in place with little nails that you basically hammer into the main wood on the edges. (I simply pushed the backer back in place and all is good now). Not sure if they sell a replacement backer part or not. Hopefully will never need one.
5.0 out of 5 stars If you break something during assembly they will replace it
While assembling the bookcase, I stupidly tried to turn it on its side and broke the center shelf attachments. No problem: I went to their web site, entered the model number and part number (in the instructions), and they will send me a replacement shelf for just the cost of shipping and handling. I have two of these already which is why I chose to purchase them again. I find the assembly instructions to be easy and clear: they even have little lettered stickers on the different pieces of wood so that you can be sure you have the correct piece when you're putting it together. Also the unit is light enough that I can move it by myself. Yes, the bottom half only has two shelves where the top has three; I am wondering, though, whether I might not just be able to buy a couple more shelves from these guys (considering that it is so easy to get replacement parts if you just specify that you want them), and have three shelves on the bottom as well. I would then have to give them six stars!
4.0 out of 5 stars Inexpensive + Solid = Bargain
First, this is not fine furniture. It is not meant to be. It is particle board with veneer, not hardwood. If you want fine furniture: look elsewhere and spend a lot more money. Plain fact of life. This bookshelf is VERY inexpensive, I couldn't find the raw materials to build a book shelf this size from scratch for less, and I mean any material, certainly not hardwood.Second, it is not assembled, it comes as pieces well packed in a box. You need to have some rudimentary carpentry skills and be able to read carefully and follow correctly moderately complex directions to put it together properly. This is critical. If it is properly assembled it is quite sturdy. If it is not properly assembled it will fall in a heap under it's own weight. It is not difficult relative to other self assemble furniture, it is actually on the easy side, but some people just don't have the skills. If you don't, be aware of it and don't buy self assemble furniture. It doesn't make you an evil or deficient person. :)A few notes on assembly: 1) When you tighten the hidden cam as directed make sure the two pieces you are joining are firmly pressed together when you turn it, if they are not the cam will not hold as securely. 2) It says to use a manual screw driver for assembly, not a drill/electric driver. This is because if you over tighten the screws all the king's horses and all the king's men will not be able to fix it so the bookshelf works properly again. I am good with a driver, I still didn't risk it. There aren't that many screws. 3) The back is not purely cosmetic. It may be veneer over extra tough cardboard but it is critical to the overall strength and stability of the shelf. It also is how you make sure the whole thing is square. Put a nail in at one corner, go to the opposite corner, make sure the edges of the backing align with the sides of the shelf before you put a nail in that corner. Work around trying to keep the back flat as you nail, and use all the nails they provide.As mentioned elsewhere, it could use at least one more shelf. I will probably cut a piece of pine 1x12 and stain it a close enough color.Assemble in the room you are going to place it in. If you are working alone the best way to move it is to put your hands in front of you palm up and lift by the permanent shelf, that is the strongest lift point. Even if you have help that is the lift point. Do not try to move it by grabbing the upper half, it is not meant to be moved that way and the upper half may come off. I would not recommend moving it often and never with anything in it. I have kept the directions because if I change residences again I will certainly take the time to dismantle it, it will transport much better that way.
1.0 out of 5 stars Didn't even last a full day
To say that I am saddened and disappointed with this bookcase is an exceedingly vast understatement. I chose this bookcase because of the brand, which has always stood for excellent materials and quality. Boy do these words seriously fall short with this bookcase, which is not even worth it for free. The backing is the cheapest backing I have ever seen. The first one split in three pieces whilst it was being put on. I called and asked for a replacement which arrived yesterday. After a rather long time prying all the nails out, I finally got the new backing on. But it was buckling and it looked terrible. That being said, I moved it to my room and the top part disconnected itself. The backing, which as I have said, is flimsy and barely thicker than normal paper ripped. I had serious reservations about its sturdiness as it was very wobbly. We decided to move it to a different spot and despite the cams being securely locked, the entire bookcase collapsed and broke into several pieces and with its fall, down I went too. I'm post-op from a tendon surgery and since the Achilles tendon area is now hurting I had to go to the doctor's office to get an assessment--that's not counting my scrapes and bruises.I have never given anything from Sauder a negative review and I have a lot of furniture from them, but this bookcase doesn't even come close to a 1 star review. In fact, if I could give it negative stars, I would. Seeing as this didn't even survive two moves and is now an expensive pile of particle board waiting for rubbish pick up, I have to wonder how long it would have held up or if an animal or child would have been seriously injured. I say child instead of person, because I was injured. I truly hope this is a one time thing and not indicative of declining standards in the quality that I have previously held with their name.What a shame.

Not to hard
Only buy if you plan to have three + side by side and screwed together.
I found these bookcases at a whopping -50% off and wanted to buy 5 sets, alas Bolo would only let me buy a maximum of 3. Why? I have no idea. They are easy to put together, but flimsy as heck. So, what I did was build them, stand them side by side against the wall and then added an extra screw near the top and near the bottom on each of the bookcases, basically fusing them together. Now they are sturdy and actually I'm chuffed with them. But if you just buy one, I think you'll be disappointed as it won't be sturdy enough to hold books. Also, be aware, I ended up getting three separate individual transaction charges for each of the bookcases, rather than 1 single total transaction charge on my credit card. No big deal, but if you have a free account with your bank and limited transactions, this seller, for some unearthly unimaginable reason, can't take one total amount. So you'll be dinged 2,3,4,5 etc times for each individual bookcase.
