Review on πŸ“š WGX Design For You Industrial 6-Tier Modern Ladder Shelf Bookcase: Stylish Wood Storage Display Shelving, Wall Mounted Metal Wood Shelves Bookshelf in Vintage Wrought Iron Finish by Jennifer Duncan

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Big! . horrible instructions other than dented pipes

Looks great in my client's vintage industrial home office! I liked the finished product, but there were a few issues that caused me to deduct a star. The tubes look like black iron but I think they are actually soft aluminum. This was a problem as one of the tubes was flattened. It was rather oval and did not match the connecting round tube. Luckily I was able to reshape it with a rubber mallet and it fit. I often assemble furniture for myself and clients and I would rate this assembly guide as pretty bad. The instructions only have pictures, but they are not as clear as IKEA instructions, for example. There are several different pipes, the lengths of which do not match the diagrams, making it unclear which piece goes where. It wasn't until I gave up the instructions that I was able to find out for myself. Also note that you only need to assemble the bottom shelf, then use this as a template to measure where to drill holes in the bottom, then disassemble, drill the bottom pieces and then assemble the rest of the shelf. If not, you'll assemble everything and then realize that there isn't enough room for a drill or screwdriver to screw in the bottom.

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Hard to tell
