Very Nice and Fun!
We bought 6 of these shelves for our living room that has a contemporary/industrial feel. We have been very happy with them! They look great, hold a good amount of books and we have received may compliments. The books really do look like they're floating on the wall. They hold about 10-15 books for us. They could probably hold a couple more. No stud necessary when installing. Installing very easy.
Stylish, innovative, and practical
I attached my own pictures in the "customer images."
I put a few up in my small living room next to my TV and a IKEA wall-shelf. It looks great and it does hold up a lot. But how much does it hold up? That also depends on your books.
One tip: To know when to stop piling more books on, use your hand and push down from the top a little bit. If it starts to shake and feels quite heavy, it is time to stop and leave it at that.
Awesome Shelves
These shelves are not only really neat to look at once they are installed, but installation is simple. If you can use a power screw driver and a level than you can do this.
Not all books are large enough to actually "fit" on the base, but it's easily overcome by just placing a book on top. Unless you have guests who are going to stoop down and look underneath each shelf than you won't have a problem and even if they do...so what. It looks so neat! I recommend buying more than just 1 shelf though. Go for a minimum of 3 because it'll look a lot better.
