Would have been 5 stars but the smaller plank is a bit split. (See pics)It has aluminum piping nice and solid. The wood is good cheap wood, same as if you were to get it form the local hardwood store cheap clearance section. So as far as pricing would be about the same with wood pricing on the rise.I was looking for something that could fill the space in a corner section of my living room but everywhere i looked they were small book shelves or bathroom shelves. Not these shelves you need lots of room and the depth is perfect. This will most definitely make a room look and feel different.Now as for installation, the Instructions are mainly pictures of steps by steps which are kind of easy to follow once you know all the pipes and their sizes, But it comes off like something of a puzzle that you have to put together.Which brings me to the last part of the installation for when installing the last elbow.It is best to install the wall mount and pipe section to the elbow then press it against the wall, use a maker to make your markings then uninstall elbow. Now drill your holes Insert drywall anchors, then re-install the pipe and elbow wall mount configuration and drill you're screws in then. Also if you can have a second pair of hands makes things a lot easier and a good pair of gloves for all of the pipes you'll have it install.
