The shelves are fairly simple to put together except for the 5 shelf which needed 2 people. I purchased the 3,4 and 5 shelf cases and the staggered look is very nice. The shelf has ample storage space and still does not visually take up to much space. I specially loved the free shipping that I received with these as other sites were charging extra 40 for shipping a single shelf!!!!! I totally purchased 7 shelves and love the way they look together.Would highly recommend these.
The back cardboard layer could be more thick, but its fine right now.
