Furinno Luder Bookcase / Book / Storage , 3-Tier, White

Good enough for a low budget apartment. I actually got three of these green shelves and they seem pretty consistent. I feel like my photos don’t do the color justice because it’s really a soft light green, and these make it look more like a sharp yellowish-green. I do like the color. And as others have mentioned, it is a bit of a shame that the directions aren’t clear about the direction to connect the shelves. I had to reference the photo that showed how all the pieces will attach as well as coming back to this page to see how the colors align in order to make sure I was doing it right (especially in those first steps for the top shelves). They’re pretty decent shelves as far as having a good amount of space on each shelf, the height, and being small enough to fit in a small apartment yet actually helpful for storage. The assembly is straightforward if you have experience with these kinds of projects but I had a few concerns. I believe the biggest problem is that it gives you the exact amount of all the pieces, meaning that if some come broken, you’re just out of luck. Usually for shelves there will be one extra of most pieces. As shown, I did have a couple come broken and a wooden peg that split when I tried to use the mallet. With all three, I struggled when connecting the top shelves to the bottom shelves. When connecting, the circular metal connectors (I don’t recall the exact name for them) are meant to turn 180° to secure the screws. But not a single one on any of them could. It felt like I was going to break the shelf itself, or threatened to strip those connectors. So there’s a small gap there on each one, and nothing I tried was able to get them to connect snuggly. That and trying to screw in those black pieces behind the shelf were the hardest parts. It was pretty hard trying to screw into the shelf with no prep hole, with the screwdriver right up against the shelf with no room to hold it well. This shelf should have been really easy to put together (especially for someone like me with a lot of experience assembling furniture), but I ended up having hand cramps a few times. All-in-all they’re what I needed so it will be fine. I just have to be careful with the one that has the broken peg since that one will be less safe (especially because it’s at the part that can’t connect properly). I do suggest getting your own straps to secure these to the wall, especially if you have kids or pets, because they’re only stable as long as it doesn’t get pushed on.Edit – I forgot to mention that the wood is a bit rough around the edges. The photo shows discoloration on the green, and that part feels really rough. And that is something that was consistent on all the shelves of the three units that I bought. It isn’t necessarily a deal breaker for me, but it’s something that you should be aware of before making a decision.

Easy to assemble but you get what you pay for. It was easy to assemble, just need a Phillips head screwdriver and a hammer or mallet. However, the screws are not set in, so they stick out about 1/8 inch off the bookcase. The manufacturer provides simple white round stickers to cover the screws. They barely cover the screws, do bot match the laminate on the shelf, and do nothing to help with the screws poking out from the body of the shelf. I ended up pushing the edge of the stickers into the gap between the screw and the shelf. It doesn’t look terribly professional but is much better than the stickers floating in air. Also, take care removing the sticker labels used by the manufacturer to mark the components for the instructions. You can inadvertently peal off some of the finish with the sticker. I used extra white stickers for the screws to cover 2 tears. All in all, it was cheap and easy to put together. It suits my immediate needs well. I will be looking for something more quality for long term use.

front porch bliss. I was in need of a small cubbie bookcase to spruce up my front porch, and I stumbled upon the perfect solution! This little gem not only looks great but also provides fantastic functionality.The best part? I added small cubes from Dollar Tree and white dish pans for the bottom, transforming it into a personalized storage haven. Assembling it was a breeze, and it didn’t take long to put together.For the finishing touch, I painted the windows Chalk White, giving it a charming, cosy feel. Now, it’s a wonderful addition to my front porch, and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out!If you’re looking for an affordable and versatile storage solution that’s easy to customize, I highly recommend giving this cubbie bookcase a try. It’s a great value for the creativity and style it brings to your space.

Looks nice but is not high quality. I got this bookshelf on sale for $30 and I’m glad I didn’t pay more. The shelves feel like the same quality you would get at Walmart. After I put it all together and started peeling off the letter stickers some parts of the paint peeled off with the stickers. The included screws didn’t always sit flat when screwed in, but if that is a fault of the shelves or user error is hard to know. I think for the cheaper price I got it at everything is fine, a little inconsistent with the paint job but it is a spot covered by books so no big deal.Things I do like, the colors are really cute. I got white and blue and it looks great in my little play area. The instructions included are good and clear, though keep a picture handy since the directions do not tell you anything about what direction the colors should be facing. I would probably recommend using a drill if you have one, it isn’t required but it will go much faster. Overall I’m satisfied with it because at the end of the day I just needed a cute, easy to assemble, small bookshelf that was cheap.

Attractive & sturdy. As other reviewers have mentioned, this is an attractive piece that is sturdier than a lot of other particle board furniture. The instructions were super clear (which was really surprising but nice). My only complaint is that they included little matching stickers so you could cover the screws to hide them, but the screws are not recessed, so the stickers would just be sitting on top of the screws, which are already sitting above the surface. But the screws are gold/brass, so I don’t really mind being able to see them. Also: just a note that in the photo the compartment with the door is on the bottom, but the top and bottom surfaces are identical, so I flipped it upside down so the compartment with the door is on top. The door opens from the other side, but that’s the only difference.
