Looking for a MCM bookcase, which option would you consider?
Option 1:
Pros: my favourite, the shelves are modular (each unit is made out of 3 sections), wood grain looks good, seems like the highest quality
Cons: very hard to find these specific shelves (picture is from a real estate listing; I've seen them pop up for sale two or three times in the past year in cities too far away), might need to anchor them to the wall
Option 2:
Pros: each unit stands on its own on the floor, I can get them for a very low price
Cons: uglier than Option 1, kinda cheap looking, grain a bit too dark, wood veneer over particle board so lower quality
Option 3:
Pros: I love the handles, wood tone is the best
Cons: not in a particularly good condition, not a lot of actual space for books
What do you think?
EDIT: Thank you everyone for your answers! You've convinced me to wait and see if I can find the shelves from 1.
