Bentley Book/Magazine Rack - White product details page

This forward-facing book rack is a perfect compromise between the cheap and flimsy DIY rain gutter shelves and the outrageously expensive version from [brand]. I love these! We have had the first two I bought for about one month. They are sturdy - though my climber hasn't tried climbing them yet, they wouldn't hold up for that - and hold quite a few picture/board books. I liked them so much I bought two more for my other child's bedroom! [...] After that I got smart and "prepped&quo t; things so that the kids could help with wooden dowels and turning the cam locks. Great for small motor skills and a sense of accomplishment at helping mom build their bookshelf.

Quick, Honest, and to the Point. I ordered two of these book racks for our playroom and I'm happy with the result. Pros. Modern, sleek, high end look. It's half the price of a local popular child store. It's pretty study, I wouldn't recommend kids climbing on it. It holds a good amount of small books approx 30. No scraps, damage or anything wrong with them. Cons. Too many parts, boards and screws to put together! OMG. It took my husband, who's an engineer, about an hour per book shelf. The diagram is complicated. Also, it must be mounted to the wall while it sits on the floor. It can't hang on the wall. But, once we finally got it put together it looks awesome and we're overall happy with our purchase.

I wish I could include a picture. This book rack was perfect for my son's smaller room. It fits more books than his book case and takes up 1/4 of the space. It creates an expensive look at a frugal price.

I know [.....] sells these for over $100, but we are thrilled with this one for much less. Easy to follow instructions and shipped quickly.

I was so disappointed with this shelf. It was not at all as I expected and it was not sturdy at all. Thank you for allowing me to return it for full refund.

I ordered these (on sale) after going back and forth between these and a very similar style at a popular kids retail store. We're thrilled. They were a little time consuming to put together - about 30 minutes each, but they look awesome in our son's room. I love that we can shelve books facing out for display purposes and also for ease of picking titles during our bedtime routine. These sit on the floor and also need to be screwed into the wall, but take up very little floor space ( a plus in o ur small room). Love them!

I love the overall look of this product. It fits perfectly in our baby's room. The quality is lacking a bit though. The cam bolts were chintzy. Many of them spun around and did not hold in place so my husband had to use a dollop of glue in those to keep them from moving and the entire structure coming apart. The material is adequate but not great. I'm sure it will break the first time someone decides to climb it. I know it is not meant for climbing.......but does it not scream "climb me&qu ot; to a young child! Overall for the price it is a decent product. I did not return it. The real reason we kept it was because of the look. If I could have found one that I liked the style of that cost more with better construction I would have gone that route....but I searched with not avail.

When I was in my neighbor's daughter bedroom and I saw this book rack, I loved it because it was exactly I was looking for. Now my daughter can reach her books anytime in a organized space.

The bookshelf would work fine for a smaller floor bookshelf. The desciption is a bit misleading b/c it states it mounts to wall. I purchased this specificaly to hang higher on the wall and not take up floor space, but it is not designed for that purpose. This must be mounted at floor level against the wall. Just wanted to clarify that for other buyers to keep them from making the same mistake I did.

It's not made to hold hundreds of books. It is very slender and fits great on the wall without taking up space like a tradition book shelf. It looks very comparable to the one at [another store]and seems pretty well made for about half the price. We were able to get about 40 books in it. My daughter loves that she can now safely go get books for herself though. We had a traditonal book shelf and it was always a nightmare to keep clean because the books would all topple off each time she tried t o take books off the shelf.
