Nice bookcase but some fasteners don't work

This bookcase looks great, just like the picture and is pretty easy to put together with one big exception. The supplied bolts and acorn nuts that are supposed to hold the rear stabilizer bars do not match properly. The bolts are just *tiny* too short, leaving little to no grip on the nuts - and if you barely catch them but then try to turn them a little further, or even accidentally hit them, you won't catch them again . I spent a decent amount of very frustrating time patiently twisting them together properly, got my spouse to try too just in case it was kinda just me, and ended up with only one pair to stay together. As for the other three, I've been lucky enough to find slightly longer compatible screws in my own gear, but if I run into the same issue on the second of these units that we've purchased but haven't assembled yet, I will have no luck. because I only had these 3. It looks like a problem that shouldn't have happened. Added 6/10/21: I encountered the same situation with the second bookshelf. While I didn't have slightly longer bolts, I did have several other types of nuts that worked. They're noticeably different from the front of the shelf, but it's not too noticeable. However, this is a problem they need to solve.

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • Not bad
