SIMPLIHOME Draper 64" Tall Solid Wood 5-Shelf Bookcase in Teak Brown

We got the 30 inch tall version thats wide with 2 shelves divided into 4 cubbies. We love it! Its quite nice as far as $220 furniture goes. Feels sturdy. Some imperfections in the coloration/stain, but minor and worth the price. I didn't build it, but my partner did and she didn't seem terribly frustrated. Got it built in a couple hours. We got the light brown color and its very beautiful. It is getting hard to find light brown furniture these days.

I read the reviews before I purchased, which were largely positive, but I have to say I had a few doubts. Well, it arrived today, a day early, and we unboxed it immediately. I’m a 62 year old woman and I put it together entirely by myself. Nothing broke, everything lined up perfectly, there were no scratches or marks on any of the wood and it’s quite stable. I used an electric screwdriver with a Phillips bit for the cam lock pins and an allen bit for the allen bolts. It did not over tighten anything and the set up went faster. Yes, the plastic caps aren’t the best and I, like many others, didn’t love the back panels and opted to leave them off. However, considering I purchased a bookcase in a box, I am thrilled with the price, quality and easy set up. I highly recommend!

Gorgeous Cabinet. They are exceptionally well built. I started with one, not sure if I would like it. I loved it! I quickly purchased a second. They have made my room complete with the mid-century look and the addition of some puck lighting. The size of the cabinets is perfect for our room. I am going to add lamps to the tops. The fact that they are thick, solid wood makes them very sturdy and of good quality.We did not find the cabinet difficult to assemble. I laid out all the pieces alphabetically, then, as I read the directions to him, I handed my husband the parts he needed. Voilà, my husband and I had them together in one hour each.

I had been considering this bookcase for quite a while, so when it recently went on sale I decided to pull the trigger. I had held off because I was looking for something taller, but overall I am very happy with the purchase.Assembly is reminiscent of the slightly less expensive IKEA furniture that I had earlier in life, though the aesthetic of this product is far superior. The wood panels of this bookcase are denser than MDF or particleboard, but the wood surfaces are more susceptible to scratches and dings than melamine so be sure to lay down a few blankets if you're assembling this bookcase on a hard floor.I was disappointed to find that this bookcase is held together in places by cam lock hardware, and I was further disappointed in the flimsiness of the provided nuts. While wood panels hold cam lock screws more firmly than MDF panels, the cam lock bolts that came with this unit seemed to be made with unusually thin metal. As a result, three of the bolts broke during installation. Fortunately, this bookcase comes with a bag of spare hardware so I was able to continue with assembly.In addition to using more robust cam lock bolts, I would also recommend using bolts that have a groove in the track to give a tactile "click" to indicate when the cam assembly is appropriately tightened. This could also help to reduce loosening of the assembly when the bookcase is moved.Overall, given the discounted sale price and the quality of the wood panels, I am very happy with my purchase of this bookcase. However, given the assembly quirks that make me question the longevity of Simpli Home furniture, I may not be willing to buy some of the more expensive pieces that I've been considering.

It’s pretty and holds my books. The narrow sections are the perfect size for LPs. Assembly wasn’t too bad, much better than the other product I bought from this company that came with the wrong hardware. Seems sturdy! For the price, five stars is warranted.

This is a nice bookcase. It's made of rubberwood, which isn't used for fine furniture, but is a hardwood somewhat similar to ash or maple in terms of density and ability to take a stain. As solid wood, it's definitely a step above particle board and veneer. Anyone who examines it closely isn't going to mistake it for a vintage piece of mid-century modern furniture, but it really does look the part and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg. It's quite sturdy, and the pieces fit together snugly and securely. Assembly is a bit time-consuming -- it took my son and me the better part of a couple of hours because there are a lot pieces to put together -- but it's not complicated and the instructions are clear enough. It looks great in our living room. All in all, we couldn't be more pleased.

The box arrived intact. As I was unpacking the pieces, I noticed that a lot of them had minor damage or flaws. To be expected with flat pack furniture. Simplihome makes much of the fact that this is a "solid wood" bookcase. What it is is many small pieces of wood glued together (much like bamboo wood). That means that there are lots of places for the wood to become compromised. And it was. I worry about this holding up over time and how it will respond to fluctuations in temperature and humidity. Other issues--the drawer bottoms and backing on the bookcase are very flimsy. I reinforced the bottom of the drawers with wood glue and put drawer liner in there to protect the bottom. There were quite a few cracks in the wood and places where the joined pieces were starting to warp or didn't lie flat. The stickers that are on each piece are difficult to remove and leave a residue. The little plastic pieces that cover the cam locks are not a good match for the wood stain. Assembly was straightforward, if time-consuming. No missing pieces, no misaligned holes. Finished product is sturdy and beautiful. I love how it looks in my space. I don't regret my purchase, I just think it should be about $100 less. If you can get it on sale, I'd absolutely recommend it.

One of my favourite pieces of furniture. Really nice quality and exactly the style and colour we look for when purchasing furniture. It was super simple to put together and has been very sturdy. We have it packed with books and board games and it feels very stable and durable.
