At different points, I've bought all the sizes of the Carson Espresso bookcases. The narrow 5-shelf was the last piece to complete my wall-of-shelves in my living room. The quality is pretty decent for the price - the shelves and outer supports are high-quality wood. Only the thin side panels feel flimsy/cheap. But the shelves themselves are solid and can support the weight of heavy books without any fear of warping or bowing. The overall finish is great and once assembled and stacked full of your favorite books and knick-knacks they look really nice. The best part for me, though, was the fast, free shipping. These arrived at my door two days after I ordered them online. That's impressive. Target delivers!
