Display books of all sizes on this five-tier leaning shelving unit from Winsome Wood. From the Bailey collection, the ladder-style unit offers compact storage while also bringing a stylish touch into an office, living room, dormitory, or master bedroom. The sturdy shelving unit is crafted out of solid beech wood and composite woods, finished in a contemporary matte black finish. The 23-inch wide shelves gradually increase in depth from top to bottom. With its 4-inch depth, the top shelf makes a great display space for small keepsakes and framed photographs, while the 13-1/2-inch deep bottom shelf accommodates bulkier binders, thick tomes, and photo storage boxes. A raised lip lines the sides and back of each shelf to prevent articles from slipping off. For compact storage, the shelving unit folds flat. A matching Bailey leaning desk unit is available for separate purchase. This item requires quick home assembly upon arrival and comes with all necessary hardware. The shelving unit measures 24-1/2 inches wide by 14-2/5 inches deep by 74-3/5 inches high and weighs 43 pounds.

Ecellent Shelving System,
By C M "Bibliophile" (Raleigh, NC) - See all my reviews The only problem with these shelves is that they leave marks on the wall if you have to move/straighten them. This usually only happens when first putting up the shelves and initially positioning them, as they stay in place quite well when set up and full of books. Also, Amazon tends to put these shelves on sale every so often, so you can usually pick one up for under $65 with shipping included, if you wait for the right time.

Cheaper (and) sturdy alternative to higher end leaning bookshelves,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Winsome Wood Bailey Leaning 5-Tier Shelving Unit, Black (Kitchen)
I wanted a leaning bookshelf, and did a little research on various ones. I chose this one, over the cheapest one on Amazon (I think around $45) because a couple of reviewers said that it was sturdy enough to hold a lot of books, and that is what I wanted to use it for. Overall, I am happy with it. I just have a few comments about the piece, itself for people who are a little hesitant to buy furniture online.
It is easy to put together. It comes in 9 pieces (5 shelves, 2 sides, and a top and bottom). The painted finish seems a little thin on the parts of the shelf you wouldn't see (ie the bottom). The directions have an inventory and assembly section. In the inventory section they clearly show that the top and bottom of he sides are different (top is straight and bottom is angled), but in the assembly directions they look the same. The result is it took me a few minutes to figure out which end I was actually supposed to start on. The shelves are screwed in very securely. It is not just a screw into wood, but there is a metal reinforcement around the hole. BUT the bottom and tops are loose. I ended up putting a few dabs of wood glue on them (which means I can't disassemble this), and letting it cure overnight. It is almost like the holes are too large in the top and bottom or the wood dowels are too short. The upper shelf cannot really hold books, because it is so shallow. You could put paperbacks on it, but they would hang over a little. The bottom shelf is the opposite. It is so deep. I had to rummage through my books to find a couple that I could put on the ends that would not fall out of the sides onto the wall or floor. I have a lot of books, that vary in size and weight, and the shelf handled all of them beautifully. A good alternative to a more expensive version of this shelf. And a smarter design than the cheapest version. The edging around each shelf keeps your books on the shelf, and prevents your wall from getting scratched up each time you add or remove a book. I also had no problems with scratching the wall when I placed it (one reviewer claimed this). Also, the sides are each one long piece of wood not broken in two (another review claimed this).

Purchased for AtHomeMart--WONDERFUL!,
By There are only two things I can say that are the least bit negative about this product... One, I'm very sad it didn't come in an espresso finish, none of my other furniture is black. And two, I was not aware that the height of the shelf would be in two pieces. This is really not noticeable, it just was not what I was expecting. I was expecting the side pieces to be one solid long piece, but they are actually two smaller pieces you set together. Once together, they are very secure and the seam isn't terribly noticeable. All in all, I think this is a wonderful shelf. It looks great in my living room, is very sturdy, and (I feel) very well constructed. I would definitely recommend this product, especially for the price.
