Great looking; not terribly sturdy
The sloane wine bar is a great looking piece...dark, masculine, and elegant. It really brings the living room together. Looks outstanding with several different sized books and keepsakes on it, and displays wine and spirits in a tasteful manor. However, the three pieces dont fit together exactly flush and they all tend to exert a lot of pressure on each other once screwed together. Once against the wall, one tends to be 'floating' away from the wall while the other two are up against it.
All in all though, it is a great looking piece and i would recommend it.

Genius!
I LOVE this. The way the bar with shelves against the wall is so artistic and also functional. This is a wonderful idea especially for small spaces like mine!

Elegance
This gorgeous shelving unit is both elegant and efficient. It utilizes space nicely and it is great for displaying kitchen trinkets like glass bottles and plates. I adore this piece!

Just Right Fit - Small Spaces
I wanted to create a compact personal space in a cornor of my living room so I bought one of the Sloane leaning bookcase units. It fit into the corner by the front window just perfectly; it did nt overpower the rest of the room. Then I placed on several shelves interesting wicker baskets to hold and hide belongings and journals. I am so happy with how functional the bookcase is and the quality of the workmanship. It blends right with the woodwork of my 1928 small home. Nicely done!

Good Wall Unit
This wall unit looks beautiful. The wood is very dark, but it complements our wall perfectly, like it was made just for the wall. The set is fairly sturdy, though we had a little trouble with one of the shelf units not fitting flush against the middle part. They are three separate pieces that fit together and then have some flimsy brackets that hold it on. Also, the wall mounting kit is absolutely cheap and useless. The flanges smushed when we tried getting them into our wall and we had to go to the store to buy real ones. Then plastic ties are given to bind the unit to the wall, pretty lame. Lovely piece though. One more note, the finish started peeling off the front of one of the shelves, but we took it to the store and they replaced it for us.

Gorgeous.
Delivery was prompt and the gentlemen who delivered the furniture were very pleasant. Assembly was easy, although I did not mount any of the three pieces to the wall. I purchased this set to free up some space in my kitchen cabinets. I have it in my dining room and it is perfect for displaying my serving pieces & glassware/barware, storing my wine, as well as my cookbooks. I really love this set.

do yourself a favor....
...and buy the Sloane Wine Bar/Bookcase(s)....this piece is the most talked about and complemented on piece of furniture in our house.
It completely transformed our dining room with elegance, while giving it a great contemporary, but warm look and feel.
The CB staff was great at our Charlotte, NC store, helpful from purchase to assisting me loading this item into my car!

Classy & beautiful!
I have been eyeing this product for a while and reading all the reviews. The picture does not do it justice at all!. It is simply classy and beautiful. My husband said that the wood is solid durable hard wood and it is easy to assemble. Totally worth the money. We are actually thinking of purchasing
additional pieces for the office room! Totally recommend! Great purchase!

Beautiful Piece
The Sloane Espresso Leaning Wine Bar with Bookcases is a very well made product. It is a beautiful piece and you will receive so many compliments. Great organizing unit for your dining area as it holds a lot of wine glasses, wine bottles, and all accessories for your standard bar.

Great Substitute for a Formal Buffet!
We were looking for something to store some glassware, place mats, etc. in our dining room, and got that in the Sloan Leaning Wine Bar, and more! We went to the store to see the difference between the Espresso and Grey colors, and were glad we did. The Espresso has a nice glossy finish, whereas the Grey is very sanded and bland looking. Installation was fine, and it is a very sturdy piece. We were able to throw out two old bookcases by lining the sides of the Sloan with all our books. It looks super classy against the grey walls we have. Overall, very pleased! (Also, we ordered it from the store and picked it up when all the pieces were in, which saved a bundle on shipping costs!)

Love IT!
I have 2 of the pieces, the wine bar and the one bookcase for two years and I love it. It looks amazing leaning on the wall between my kitchen and living room. Everyone always compliments me on it, and it goes perfectly with the rest of my dark mocha furniture. I would highly recommend it!

Wonderful Addition
This book case is not only completely functional, but so attractive. I love the way the unique style fits into my living room, and it was very easy to assemble. I plan to pruchase additonal cases in the future.

Gorgeous Piece
I have the sloane wine rack with adjoining bookshelves and the media stand and everyone who comes into my apartment raves about them. They are great for apartments because they don't come out far from the wall but still have a ton of storage and places to decorate. I love them. Definitely one of my favorite Crate and Barrel purchases.

Great Buy
I am very happy with my leaning wine bar/bookcase set. I actually purchased the set planning on placing it against our dining room wall, and then I realized it would look amazing and help me complete the "man room." Now here's the great part: because I bought the 3 piece set I was hesitant putting it in front of a window and taking away room lighting. However, I remembered seeing the pieces separate online and when I was assembling everything it was confirmed that they didn't HAVE to be all together.
Therefore, I took the wine section and one of the bookcases and placed them in opposite corners of the room, framing the window, and wallah! It looked fabulous! The man room is now complete with lots of lighting and I utilized the other bookcase as a media center for the living room. My husband loves the way everything looks, which is great because I ordered it and assembled everything when he was out of town ;)
So yes, it looks good, great color, sturdy, and versatile!

Great space, open look
This piece replaced a large heavy-looking three-door china cabinet in a dark stain. The old cabinet stored a full set of formal china, a full set of monogrammed glassware, and a boatload of other knick-knacks. I honestly didn't think all that stuff would fit onto this ladder set, but it did, with extra room for wine bottles, and the open shelves really make the room feel lighter and brighter. The overall style is more modern too - this is not my mother's dining room!
Note that if you want to connect the three pieces with the included hardware instead of just letting them stand free next to each other you will require a helper to support them from the back. Other than that I had no trouble assembling these single-handed.
I read prior reviews which stated the wine cabinet couldn't stand with its top fully supported against a wall that had bottom moulding because the rear legs were flush with the back, setting the unit away from the wall. This has been remedied by a second set of back leg holes giving the option to mount the legs 1" forward from the back of the unit, and using these the unit stands perfectly flat against the wall with room for moulding.
Overall I'm delighted with this purchase, and happily recommend it.

Great Product
Now that I finally received all of my peices, which is another story all together, I am happy with my purchase. The bar cabinet could be better stained to reduce the snagging of dust cloths. I purchased the leaning bar and 2 bookcases and realized my wall could hold another piece, so I bought another leaning bar. The complete leaning bar and bookcase looks great.

beautiful piece!
this piece requires 2 persons to assemble. Once we figured out the angle of the shelves, it was really easy to set. Every piece fit perfecty together. It's a great looking piece of furniture.
