Furinno Luder Bookcase

I really love these shelves and I am surprised at some of the higher quality aspects of this versus a lot of other inexpensive bookshelves. Pros: - The color is very pretty, would fit well into modern and/or farmhouse aesthetics. And there are lots of other furniture with a similar color so you can definitely match this with other pieces easily. - The construction was simple but sturdy. The instructions recommend 2 people and 50 minutes. I did it by myself no problem. It did take me longer than 50 minutes by myself but I also was just casually putting it together while watching tv, so I'm sure if you needed to put it together quicker you could. - The back panels slide into notches in the back of the shelves. Many other bookshelves at this price point come with a flimsy back panel (sometimes with multiple panels taped together) that you nail around the edges to attach it, which is just super cheap and bows out if you push against it. There are 3 separate panels and each one slides into the shelves so they look good and stay in place, even though they are thinner panels. This was a really pleasant surprise. - The included screws are more of a bronze color than a silver/steel color, which means they blend in more if you do not want to use the included stickers to cover them. - The stickers to cover the screws have a similar wood grain pattern as the shelves to help them blend in. - Instructions were pretty straight forward, though I was focused on the side panels and missed where they showed to slide the back panels in and I did have to unscrew 3 sides to slide them in after the fact. So just pay attention to where it shows to put the back F panels in! - All the shelves seem sturdy once put together. I don't notice any wobbling or anything when pushing or pulling on the shelves. Cons: - You do need your own phillips screwdriver. But you do not need a power drill or any other tools. Everything else is provided. - The stickers that cover the screws are just a slightly different shade than the shelves, which to me make them stick out more than just the screws themselves. I likely will not use them. BUT they are only on the long sides, and by that I mean they are more noticeable when you are using the shelves horizontally (where it is shorter and longer) than vertically (where it is taller but narrower). If you were placing it vertically, you likely wouldn't notice either the screws or the stickers. And I definitely appreciate the effort they put in to try and match the color/pattern. I just wish it was a slightly more accurate color match. - It does not come with anything to anchor it to a wall. If you have small children and want to secure this against the wall, you will need to get something separate to attach it. The shelves are sturdy but also pretty lightweight- if a small child was climbing it, I could see it tipping over. - The little stickers that label which piece is which are kind of annoying to remove. They don't really come off easily and I had to scratch some of it off, but it did not mess up the shelves so not a huge deal. All in all, I would say my cons list is more of a "slight inconvenience" list, and I think this is a really great value for the price considering it is not real wood. I don't expect it to last a lifetime, but I think it will last longer than a lot of other similarly priced cheapy shelves I saw before going with these ones. I would absolutely buy more, and probably will.
