A decent book case
For the money it is not bad. Good selection of shelf heights.

Good buy
Very easy to assemble. Construction is sturdy and attractive. The only (slight) disappointment is that the back cover is a little bit bowed in spots even though I tried to stretch it as far as I could across the shelf.

Poor Quality, Did Not Match Desk Style
The overall structure is bad as not all panels fit tightly. The style was supposed to match my desk as they have the same style name on the Bush website but they do not match in color or style at all. I am disappointed with the bookcase.

Pieces Don't Quite Match Up
Love bush products but this particular one the pieces don't quite match up so it has some edges off.

Everything went together well with great precision. I bought two of them. And, I love how they look in my home office--I get lots of compliments.

Bookcase
We had one bookcase that we purchased a few years ago and needed a second one and Staples had it. We are thrilled with it. I had it delivered and it was easy to put together. It looks great in our home office and now I have room to add more books.

Maple Cross Bookcase
Easy to put together with clear and simply instructions. Sturdy and comes with wall anchors if needed. Looks great! My only issue is that there are not continuous peg holes for shelves the entire length of the bookcase. I have several oversized photo albums scrapbooks that will only fit on a single shelf if I want to keep all four shelves.
