no wow factor
Ok, where do I start? The bookcase was fairly easy to assemble...until I got to the anchors, which was not supposed need any power tools. HA!! I needed to drill holes in the dry wall and I still had trouble getting it in. Once I got the anchors in the rest was a snap and very sturdy.
I mush admit the the bookcase is nice, not wow like I had hoped but it doesn't take up a lot of space visually, which was a major selling point. With that being said I feel that cb2 is making a KILLING. At a $300 price point plus$60 delivery fee and taxes this $400 bookcase is sooo not worth it!! How much did it cost to make this? I would bet my life it doesn't cost more than $50 to make it. I am very disappointed in cb2 and I seriously doubt I will ever buy any thing here again other than drinking glasses.

Looks great, excellent value
This bookcase looks great in our living room and provides storage without filling up the space. Easy to assemble and attach to the wall. The piece looks more expensive than it is, the glass shelves are thick and sturdy, and overall it seems to be a very well-constructed piece of furniture. I am extremely happy with this purchase, as I have been with past purchases from CB2.

Great Sleek Shelf
This is a gorgeous shelf, looks very sleek and high end. Perfect because it does not take up a lot of space, if you live in a small apt. I bought one, but am thinking about getting another one for the bedroom

Worth Every Penny!
This piece is stunning. It is very easy to put together. The glass is heavy, tempered glass. Really makes a statement.

Wonderful piece
I ordered 2 Tesso shelves for a client I am working with and they are amazing. They fit perfecting into the space and did not take up too much visual space, but added tons of storage. I would recommend this product if limited on space but don't wanna sacrifice style.

Nice!
Ordered two bookcases for a more contemporary look in a traditional condo. They were fairly easy to put together. The glass shelves are very thick and nice. The wall bolts were adequate, took some doing to get them into the drywall. One shelf bracket is crooked, but not really noticeable. Another one must be as some items keep "moving" after awhile...strange. All in all, they are well made and of high quality. The look is exceptional.

Jewelry for my walls!
I ordered 3 of these for my retail display in the front of my salon. BEAUTIFUL! They are light and airy, but hold a great amount of retail! One box of the glass shelves arrived broken but they sent a replacement set out that day and it got here within a week. Great look for the price!!

Fantastic value, well constructed, looks great
We had been looking for new bookshelves for our living room for quite a few months. Once we saw the Tesso bookcase, it stuck in the back of our minds until we decided it was the best fit for our decor and definitely the best value for the material/look. The unit is very well constructed, the shelves are sturdy and the glass is thick and nicely edged (smooth edged, not a hard edge). We ended up getting 3 of these and they look great in our apartment!

I love these bookshelves
These shelves are beautiful -- I love them. We bought one and liked it so much we bought four more. Do be aware, though, that the bottom bracket is close enough to the floor that if you have high baseboard trim, it may be in the way. It was for us, but we just didn't use those bottom brackets -- that still leaves the middle and top brackets, and there's no problem.

High ceilings, small office awesome solution
I love my tesso bookcase. I wanted a bookcase that would work with my petite midmod teak desk, my Gio Ponti polished chrome superleggera chair and that made best use of my limited floor space. The tesso did it. It looks great with modern classics. It was easy to put together and helps keep the room light and bright. It is the perfect fit for my tall ceilings. I had my eye on it for a while and it was worth the wait. A store opened in Washington, DC and I picked it up myself. The customer service was great and I didn't have to pay for shipping.

The most amazing shelves!
I purchased 2 of these for my salon and get compliments repeatedly. They hold alot and are compact as well as they are bracketed close to the wall. I intend on buying more when I expand. These get an A+++

Beautiful
I had been looking for exactly this product, when I found it in the CB2 catalog. What a beautiful unit! I bought 2, which fit together really nicely to give my living room a more sophisticated look. Unfortunately I have cement walls, so I needed to use a hammer drill in order to install the bookshelves - but it was all worth it because they look great!

Sleek, functional and good looks
This turned my hallway into a displaycase of my family pictues. The low profile and glass shelves makes this an unbelievably space saving piece. I love this piece and highly recommend it.
Tip, I mounted the top brackets upsidedown to hide the mounting screws.

One of the best purchases!
Bought 2 of these, and can't wait to put them together. They are very slim, and work perfectly in a smaller space. Plus, they look very sleek, classy and modern. I just love them! They are one of the best purchases I have made recently.

Looks great!
This shelf arrived in perfect condition, was easy to assemble by myself, and then I just had our building handy man screw it into the concrete wall. It looks fantastic! Definitely recommend!

beautiful!
We have these in our 1930's house in the same room as some antiques. They are a perfect contrast and hold display items beautifully! We had a very shallow space in which to put book shelves and these did the trick. We have a toddler and were worried about safety but the glass is totally secure. We have a basket on the bottom shelf which is a perfect spot to stash his toys. Love them!

Perfect look for my home!
I purchased 3 Tesso shelving units for my dining room. They were so easy to put together and to attach to the wall. They look great! Everyone who has come to visit comments on them. They are so simple, but so chic. They are a perfect way to show off various items I have collected over the years.
