Review on πŸ“š Mission Style 3-Shelf Bookcase for a Relaxed Home by Danielle Smith

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Natural wood, cumbersome crate, get by mail, by mail

Was good - smaller than some bookcases so pay attention to measurements but real wood (very dark walnut stained) and easy to assemble. It comes in a long, narrow box that's awkward to handle and weighs over 30 pounds. So if you live in a place where large boxes need to be picked up from the post office (as we've done for anything that doesn't fit in our mailboxes or the included parcel lockers), remember you need a way to get it pick up and home delivery if mailed like we do. Luckily there are two of us and we have an SUV, although even then we needed one of us to stop him from hitting the driver when he broke away from the top of the front seat. There are also 2 stickers on it. on top of the shelf, a small "Made in Thailand" and a big warning that people could get hurt if the shelves tip over, which were obviously taped to the shelves long before we got the bookshelf (maybe because it's made in Thailand was manufactured and undoubtedly made the slow voyage to the US on a container ship). They were very difficult to remove and left a mess so I would suggest including a bottle of Goo Gone with your order if you don't already have one on hand. When we brought it home, collected it and cleaned it of dirt, we liked the bookcase. simply good.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • High price
