Love the shelf! I unpacked it and we assembled it in under 30 minutes. We did have 1 issue with the metal on 1 side not sliding together so my husband had to readjust the slot so it would slide together. One together it’s beautiful and very sturdy too. Be cautious when assembling to be sure you have the 2 sides aligned with straight sides to the back and slanted to the front. We accidentally had 1 side on reversed and had to take it off and flip it around.
