Cheap plastic boards not wooden like believed

Ordered this as a clothing shelf, it feels cheap to me the boards are so light and sound like straight plastic and believe they will bow with time or weight for over $200 was expecting more like actual wooden shelving and heavy duty metal not biglots and Walmart quality if wasn't such a Hassel to would return. Save ur money

Pros
  • Provides a unique solution for space management
Cons
  • The metal construction may make the bookcase feel too cold and impersonal

Nice shelf, hard assembly

This shelf is cute, but very difficult to build with one person. And I did not receive all of the screws I needed and had to go to the store to find a match. Overall, it’s a nice shelf but putting it together was difficult.

Pros
  • Provides a great way to display family photos
Cons
  • The shelves may be too wide or too narrow for some display items

I’d buy it again and again

This is a great product. I wasn’t sure if it would have the weird wayfair style garbage look to it, ya know, where it looks cheap? Well this doesn’t, it looks great, I needed a bookcase kind of quickly and it delivers and looks wonderful. The bookcase is also sturdy so truly, for the money, it is worth it.

Pros
  • Offers a stylish way to store and display books
Cons
  • The industrial style may not feel cozy or welcoming in a home setting

Sturdy unit but questionable shelf materials.

Overall this shelf was exactly what I was looking for. I assembled it myself in about an hour while my children whirled around me. The uprights seem quality enough but the wood-look vinyl used to cover the particle board shelves is easily damaged and not well adhered. I had read this in other reviews so it wasn't a surprise when I had a few dents. I was able to put a couple dents to the back but one glares at me from the front. For the price I paid and after a long shipment timeframe it wasn't…

Pros
  • Adds character to home offices
Cons
  • The bookcase may seem too imposing in smaller spaces

Great shelf - my new review

We needed some storage in our small apartment and chose this bookshelf. It looks great, wasn’t too hard to build, and seems pretty sturdy.Tip: put in the middle screws first on the boards.

Pros
  • Can be used as a display case for souvenirs
Cons
  • The lack of closed storage space may limit the appeal to those who need to keep their space tidy and neat

Easy to assemble. Looks great

The shelf height is a little shorter than I anticipated. However, it was easy to assemble and it really looks great. I have gotten a number of compliments on them.

Pros
  • Easy to assembleVery sturdyLooks great
Cons
  • The industrial style may feel too masculine for some tastes

I love these shelves!

I love these shelves. They have become the centerpiece of my apartment. When they arrived they were very heavy and I worried about putting them together myself, so I hired someone. He finished in 45 minutes! We didn’t mount them against the wall yet but they are still super sturdy. I would recommend using the provided mounts if you have children in the house, though.

Pros
  • Socso
Cons
  • The large size may not fit in smaller spaces

Super cute- modern industrial vibes

These are very cute, and feel sturdy and don’t look cheap. It took me, a 28 year old woman about 30-40 minutes to put together. My only small complaint is that the wall anchors are too short if you have wall trim and can’t get the back of the shelf all the way to the wall.

Pros
  • Provides ample storage space
Cons
  • The metal construction may feel too cold and impersonal for some tastes

A great storage option for all.

Your product is great. I wish that I had gotten it sooner, cause sure helped us out for storage. I would recommend it to any one who needs pace.

Pros
  • Sturdy, non-wobbly structure
Cons
  • The metal finish may be prone to smudging and fingerprints

Great looking bookshelf. Sturdy too!

If you're gonna follow the instructions then you definitely need a person to help you. If you start with the 3 small black parts and one wood shelf(which is the foundation) then you can do it by yourself. I had trouble with 3 screws. They never went in but i don't think it affects anything and im too lazy to try this again😭😂

Pros
  • Easy to assemble
Cons
  • The bookcase may feel too industrial and out of place in residential settings

DIY: Bookcase/bookshelf

This is beautiful once put together! Definitely takes two because its heavy. Hubby and I noticed it took about an hour and a half. No need for a drill if you're not adjusting it to be on the wall. I was looking to upgrade and this definitely holds my many books, CD's, and still have room at the bottom for more:)

Pros
  • Heavy-duty metal frame supports heavier items
Cons
  • The lack of back paneling may make wiring and cord management a challenge

Very pretty - my new review

i purchased two and they are a very pretty addition to my office space. they were not that hard to assemble although I would recommend having someone help you. they are study but they will tilit over easy if you dont mount them to the wall. it does come with wall mounts if desired

Pros
  • Can be used to display trophies and awards
Cons
  • The bookcase may not be suitable for larger or more specialized collections

Great value on my review.

For the price, I am blown away at the quality of this bookshelf. It looks like something from pier 1 and is surprisingly pretty sturdy. I assembled it by myself and my only complaint is having to wiggle and adjust to get the screw holes to line up when attaching the shelves.

Pros
  • Adds depth to the room
Cons
  • The industrial style may feel too formal or corporate in a personal home space

Looks great, sturdy, great deal

I looked on a bunch of sites for an open bookcase for our extensive game collection. This was the best price by far but looks great and not cheap at all. Pretty easy to put together (helps to have 2 people). Would definitely recommend!

Pros
  • Provides a perfect backdrop for wall art
Cons
  • The industrial style may look too impersonal in more intimate settings

It took a long time to assemble and some of the screws wouldn’t ever align no matter which way the board went in. We finally gave up and attached it to the wall. There’s at least 3 screws in each shelf (supposed to have 6) and it seems VERY sturdy as is.Had to use a lot of my own tools too. I’d have a socket wrench, pliers and hex key handy.Pros: SO cute and very affordable. This style is trendy so the upcharge is ridiculous. The "wood grain” looks really good and you don’t realize it’s…

Pros
  • Can be used in both residential and commercial settings
Cons
  • The bookcase may be too tall to fit into certain rooms or office spaces

Strong and sturdy. Happy with this purchase. Houses part of my children's book collection. Planning to purchase another size in the near future.

Pros

Cons
  • The lack of closed storage space may make the bookcase appear cluttered

Some difficlty with assembly of shelves

The supplied screws for shelves do not match well with their associated pre-drilled holes. Was able to complete assembly by placing entire unit on it's side.before that, it was back-breaking.

Pros
  • Offers a practical storage solution for small apartments
Cons
  • The open shelf design may expose display items to more wear and tear

Good shelf!: my feedback

I was skeptical to buy furniture off Revain, I figure a shelf would be the best place to test it. The shelf is actually great. Mines absolutely loaded with stuff and shows no warping or anything. Looks really good in my loft apartment too. Assembly wasn’t to bad, took me about an hour or two. Actually really happy with this

Pros
  • Adds functionality and style to any space
Cons
  • The industrial style may detract from other furniture pieces in a room

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Solid and good looking

Really easy to put together and they are solid as a rock. The industrial style may look out of place in more rustic or organic decor schemes. Plus they look like high end shelves, really great.

Pros
  • Provides a great way to showcase plants and flowers
Cons
  • The industrial style may look out of place in more rustic or organic decor schemes
