Perfect sized shelves!
March 7, 2013
We already had the 2shelf bookshelf in my daughter's room. As she has grown into a toddler we needed more storage. We love the three shelf bookshelf. It's big without being overwhelming. There is plenty of space to add more stuff. We use the baskets with it. The height of the shelf is perfect for collectibles that are breakable that we want out of reach. It's a great, solid piece of furniture that is built to last. Assembly was quick and easy. A must have!

Great bookcase!
January 21, 2013
Bookcase looks great and was very easy to assemble. My only wish is that PBK could find a more eco-friendly packing material than tons of styrofoam.

Ample Storage
January 5, 2013
After getting fed up with no storage in my daughter's room, I ordered this bookcase. I am so glad I did! It is very large, sturdy, and beautifully made. My husband didn't get to it fast enough so I went ahead and put it together with no problems in about 30 minutes, and that was with a million distractions from my 2 year old... : ) The only con about this bookcase is the smell... It was very strong and I wish I had taken the pieces out of the box outside. It is 30 degrees here but I opened the window and door anyway it was that bad! It's been put together for about 12 hours now and it's less noticeable but still there.

Nice but assembly not smooth
December 26, 2012
The bookshelf is very nice and solid and looks great. The assembly went smoothly until it was time to put the top piece in place. The back panels had been cut to the wrong size, which prevented the top from sitting well on the base. I struggled with it for quite some time before giving up.

Cute...but smells awful
December 12, 2012
We ordered this based on style and it definitely delivers. However, it has the most toxic smell that hasn't disappated in over a week. I thought it was the packaging styrofoam but it apparently is the wood or the paint. Again, really cute, easy to assemble but stinks. I'm hoping it fades soon!

Looks Great, Functions Well
December 6, 2012
My husband and I purchased this for our 2 year old son, and although we've only had it for a few weeks, we love it. It seems quite sturdy and is bigger than I thought it would be. It has enough room to hold a large number of books as well as several baskets and a bin for his diapers. It is a timeless piece and something we think he will have and be able to use for many years. If I had one complaint, it would be having to assemble the bookcase ourselves - my husband was able to do this in about an hour or so, but for the price, it would be nice to have it delivered already assembled. Overall we are very happy with this purchase.

Love the Cameron 3-Shelf Bookcase
September 18, 2012
I ordered online and received it very quickly which was a pleasant experience unto itself! Easy, easy, and fast! The packaging was good because none of the contents were damaged. I was able to unpack, lift, move and assemble the entire bookshelf correctly just by looking at the illustrations in the instructions. I did have hubby attach the shelf to the wall with the strap kit provided as I did not want to make a mistake with putting holes in my walls. We put toys on the middle and bottom shelves (no basket) with books on the top. That turned out to be great because my toddler loves to move things between the shelves in addition to taking toys off the shelf. This shelf is pricey, but the quality and Tuscan finish with distressing looks high-end and durable. Time will tell if the Tuscan finish will hold up and not chip like my Pottery Barn Kids table and chairs set in Sun Valley Expresso finish had easily chipped and scuffed...fingers crossed!

Looks great in the nursery
September 9, 2012
We bought the Cameron 3-shelf bookcase for our babys room in the Sun Valley Espresso finish. It matches the PBK Madison crib we have perfectly.
We bought it in store and the sales gal advised us to make sure to read the instructions and noted that the bottom shelf is larger than the others and they sometimes get customers calling about the unit because they didn't notice they are different sizes.
Keeping this in mind my husband has the bookcase built in 20 minutes. It was a breeze and is so beautiful.
The PBK canvas totes also look really nice in it as they do not scratch up the finish like the wooden baskets. Plus, they are super cute for our little girls room.
Id def reccomend this bookcase, PLEASE read the instrutions and you won't have the headaches like others have had with putting it together.

We bought two of these bookcases for our lake cottage - one in the white and one in navy. They look so nice and blend in well with our 1920's cottage. They did take some time to put together, but they look so good!!!! Both have received compliments in their respective rooms!

Very well made. Easy to assemble . The Simple White color had a cottage effect and perfectly matched some Cottage Style twin beds. A very good value...

Perfect Bookcase
June 24, 2012
We picked up the bookcase at the store to save $$ on the shipping costs. It fit perfect in our small SUV. It was easy to put together (30 mins) and is made very well. I've had great luck with all PBK furniture. It's pricey, but I love to watch for sales...The bookcase fits tons of books, baskets, etc. This will definitely last for years and grow with my toddler. It did have a slight smell from the finish (espresso) when we took it out of the box, but it went away within a day.

Great bookshelf. Sturdy. Easy to put together. Appears that it will last quite a while (even in the kid's rooms).
My only complaint is that very tall books won't fit on the shelves, we have to turn them sideways.

GREAT storage item
June 19, 2012
I purchased this 3 shelf Cameron bookcase for the room I can making for my grandson when he visits. The espresso matches the Kendall bed and night stand very well. The shelf was extremely easy to put together - I did it in an hour with no problems. Directions weren't the greatest but you can figure it out. The bookcase will hold a lot - and I mean a lot. I am a former teacher and have a ton of children's books ready to fill it up along with my grandson's toys, most are in 3 canvas storage bins on the bottom shelf. This is a great item for the money. There was a slight smell probably from the varnish-hope it will go away in a few days.

Perfect size and color

This was exactly what we needed for our twin boys' room. The sun valley expresso matches the Catalina beds we already had for them perfectly and makes the room complete. Study product and great finish.

My husband pieced together this bookcase in about an hour. He said it was simple and well made. We have our son's toys stored on shelves. The storage bins fit perfectly. This is a great size for any room. I am really happy with our purchase. :)

Good Shelf
May 1, 2012
This is a very nice looking bookcase! Great size for a baby's room. And I really liked that it came with wall hooks. When we put it on the carpet it leaned forward a little which made me nervous so the hooks worked great to secure the shelf.

Beautiful, sturdy OFF-White
April 12, 2012
Product is HEAVY and was well packaged - no damage during shipping. Easy to put together and the back piece to the unit doesn't seem cheap like some other products I've seen. Important to note that this is not a pure white but more of an off white color. Its far enough away from my child's other furniture that you don't notice it right away. Fits PLENTY of books - we have all of the baby books on there - probably at least 100 books and there's still room for more.

A Bookshelf and More!
March 28, 2012
I am a Mother of two children and recently purchased the Cameron Bookshelf to hold the many new books they are beginning to read and have no room for. This bookshelf is perfect, it holds all of their books, games, puzzles and still looks so nice at the same time! I try to put things together myself when I can and this product was so easy to assemble which I loved! I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for a storage bookshelf that also looks great!

Nice quality, but OFF white color
March 26, 2012
This product took 2 months to come in from Back Order, which was a pain. The quality of the packaging used for shipping was excellent and all parts arrived in great shape with no scratches or missing parts. The only issue I have (subtracted 1 start for poor color description) is that this product is not white. Next to my daughter's stark white furniture it looks cream and on its own with nothing around it, it still look off white. It took my husband about 1 hour to put it together.
