CSN bookshelf review

About two weeks ago I came home very late and found this huge package waiting for me on the front steps of my house. It was a nice surprise when I saw that it was from CSN stores! I had ordered my ORE 4 Level Bookshelf on the 3rd and it arrived on the 10th, tightly wrapped and intact. I wasn't able to open the package the day I got it though since I had a lot going on for the past two weeks but I finally ripped open the package yesterday and set about to constructing it.
Setting it up was very simple. The instructions were easy to follow and with my mom's help (we took turns holding the boards while one of us used the screwdriver to twist the nails), we were able to slide the back panels in place and nail the remaining side boards together so the bookshelf would be ready. It took practically no time to build and I'm very happy with the final result! It's sturdy, looks exactly like the old bookshelf I already have (which is filled to the max!) in miniature and I fit a ton of my books in it (along with some knick-knacks). It's nice to not have any more piles of books on the floor :)

I have to give a huge thank you for CSN stores for providing me with my new bookshelf. I'm extremely grateful and I absolutely love it!  5 stars all the way!

  5. That bookshelf is seriously awesome. I wish I had one with that many shelves! (There's barely any room left on my desk... yeah, the pile system is still going strong. They're starting to pile up on the floor, too, haha.)

  6. I just starting painting & papering my new office/library (my daughter just got her first apartment and her room is now MINE)and I intend to check out CSN for bookcases. I need at least 10 five shelfers so I'm looking for a deal. I'll be so glad to get my books off the floor and out of tubs where I can actually put my hands on one without looking for hours.
