These book ends are great, and the base has a small hole as well, if you wanted to screw it into a shelf for even more security. I ordered two pairs, both are great, strong and I feel confident the books won't fall over, even though most of them are very big and heavy.

Well, it's the finish that ruins it. The paint/lacquer/whatever the coating is, is chipped off on the bends, leaving sharp rough corners. Not good at all.

Not the cheapest metal book end, but the cleanest design without any odd cutouts and folded flaps. They will not wear out so don't mind the extra pound or two cost over the competition. I now have a very stable row of books including large cooking books. Note to the supplier, perhaps offer these book ends in other colours. I for one would like to see lime green, white, orange, dreadnought grey for the contemporary home or office environment. I may well get some vinyl wrap samples to colour up these ones.

Finished in satin black powder coat and pre-drilled with a mounting hole these metal shelf book ends are strong and work well. They are suitable for books but can be used for DVDs and Blu-Rays too.
