    It’s a neat little shelf, but it’s just raw wood, there’s no finish on it whatsoever, even though it says pickled oak finish.

    I was surprised how create this shelf looks, very easy to set up. Only complaint is that it’s a bit smaller than anticipated.

    Definitely reading other reviews I was concerned about possibly getting this with chips, damage, or the wood splitting on assembly but it went together perfectly and looks great. I think someone had pointed out too that the shelves don't have alot of clearance and that is true - basically only common "paperback novel" sizes can stand upright but I still have other sized books on some of the shelves laid flat stacking upwards so overall its holding some 25-30 books total of various sizes. And really, even with some limitations, this was a huge value over other shelves I was finding for over $100 so the price just sets it apart as 5 stars.

    This bookcase ladder is really nice! I bought two, as one was for my mom. They are better on carpet to me.

    First of all - it is not exactly as it seems in the picture. I thought the wood shelves were solid wood but they have slats in them so it is hard to put anything on them. The product arrived missing an entire shelf and some hardware so I had to call and get it replaced. The entire shelf is light pine, so it weighs less than 3lbs (???) and when putting it together the holes are not aligned well so you have to force it which will easily destroy the shelf since it is so light. It doesn't sit well against the wall , things fall off, and it isn't able to fit things well since the shelves are at such an angle. Overall, I am not really pleased. Especially for the price. I was hoping for a nice shelf unit for my home. It is currently unused in my garage.

    Not what I expected from Best Buy. The wood was unfinished and is a lot smaller that I expected. This is a very small shelf.

    I purchased the Hastings Home - open ladder 5-tiered bookshelf because in needed a short depth shelf to lean against the wall next to my recliner. Space was an issue, and this shelf unit fit perfectly. I didn’t find the quality of the wood particularly impressive, but the shelf was inexpensive and suited my need. All in all I would say it was a good purchase.

    I'm only giving 4 stars because this ladder is great but it just doesn't hold pictures bigger than a 4x6

    Thr kno6s in the wood caused two of the pieces to break right out of the box. I glued them and they are fine. Everything else about it was fine.

    I should have read the dimensions better. It is way shorter than I thought it would be. Easy to put together.
