Disappointing quality given the price. When assembling, the locking screw chipped apart the wood, which leaves a very obvious mark. The style is beautiful, but sadly would not recommend based on my experience!

Overall pretty design but shocked by the quality of this toy shelf, especially given how expensive it is. I’ve only had it for one week, and with ligh normal use with toys it is already covered in dents and scratches. I don’t understand how this is marketed as a toy shelf when it can’t withstand basic use by a child. The quality is extremely disappointing for the price, and I would not recommend it.

Wish I could have loved this - but the pieces do not fit together no matter how you put it together. There is a gap regardless.
