What materials are used for the frame?

Does it require wall mounting?
The unit is designed to be sturdy on its own, but as with all children's furniture, ensure it is placed on a level surface.
How many books can it hold?

Troubleshooting
The unit feels wobbly after assembly.
Check that all fasteners are fully tightened and ensure the unit is placed on a flat, level floor surface.
The fabric slings are sagging.
