The bookcase came broken. Unfortunately it was poorly finished too. I own the narrow Maldives bookcase, which is very nice and the surface is smooth and shiny,which I can not tell about the wide one. They are just finished in different way. I wanted to return the piece but HD gave me a good deal so I kept the bookcase. It needs some work but with the deal I think it's worth it. I just love this bookcase.

The finish is rustic, but I like that. Very heavy- 230lbs!, which is great once you get it in place but heavy to move into the house. Mine arrived scratched, but Home Decorators offered a discount or replacement, great customer service.
We have gotten lots of compliments on this unique piece!
