Poundex 5-Tier Leaning Wall Shelf, Black

This shelf is very modern looking, saves space, and keeps the room looking brighter and more open by eliminating the tradition boxy shape of a bookshelf. I'm enjoying it very much in my bedroom, but other buyers should take note that this bookshelf absolutely CANNOT hold heavy items on the bottom shelves. Because of the positioning of the screws on just one side of the bottom two (largest) shelves, heavy books will cause these shelves to rotate backwards to the point of breaking. I partially solved this problem by wedging 3 old textbooks underneath the bottom shelf, which now is holding about 60 pounds worth of my school books. The second shelf I could do nothing about, and is now holding a box of tissues and some magazines. The upper shelves are more stable (ironically, since they're the smaller ones), because of the more central positioning of the screws. So YES, it looks great! But be aware that this is not the most solid of bookshelves.
