The beauty and benefits of rubberwood: Hailing from the maple family of trees, the rubber tree is used in the manufacture of high-end furniture. It is valued for its dense grain, minimal shrinkage, attractive color, and acceptance of different finishes. It is also prized as an "environmentally friendly" wood, as it makes use of trees that have been cut down at the end of their latex-producing cycle.
About Atlantic Furniture
Founded in 1983 as Watercraft, Inc., Atlantic Furniture started as a manufacturer of pine waterbed frames. Since then, the Springfield, Mass.-based company has expanded to Fontana, Calif. The company has moved away from the use of pine and now specializes in imported furniture made of the wood of rubber trees.
The Benefits of Eco-Friendly Rubberwood
Prized as an environmentally friendly wood, rubberwood makes use of trees that have been cut down at the end of their latex-producing life cycle. The trees are removed by hand and replaced with new seedlings. In the past, felled rubber trees were either burned on the spot or used as fuel for locomotive engines, brick firing, or latex curing. Now the wood is used in the manufacture of high-end furniture. It is valued for its dense grain, stability, attractive color, and acceptance of different finishes.
Atlantic's Unique Five-Step Finishing Process
Each product in the entire line is finished with a high-build, five-step finishing process. After a thorough sanding, a wipe-on sealer is applied, followed by a tinted sealer to even the grain and color of the wood. Additional sanding prepares the surface for the first base color coat, more sanding, and a second base color coat. After a final sanding, the finish coat is applied. This process produces a beautiful and durable finish that will last for years.

We really like this bookcase but wish the shelves were adjustable

Comments about Atlantic Furniture Windsor 4-Tier Bookcase:
The dowels were too long, causing the wood to split in multiple places with assembly. They had to be grinded down in order for shelves to fit properly. There were no pilot holes for the screws, adding to the difficulty of assembly. Poor value for the money.

Comments about Atlantic Furniture Windsor 4-Tier Bookcase:
So far so good. 2 yr old is loving it and it was exactly what we were after....except about 1/2 price compared to the thieves at [...]. Easy to assemble. Have yet to test the durability of the finish, but this is a kid's bed after all. Like the full size on the bottom bunk for when Dad/Mom have to crawl in.
