Easy to build and is stable enough for the number of bulky coats we've loaded it up to already.  The rounded bit that goes on the end of the coat holders isn't actually screw on, so you have to jam it in and give it a slight twist to hopefully stick it on fully - don't be surprised if it pops out if you yank your coat out a bit too vigorously but so far has only happened once and can be replaced back on very easily. It's fully functional and more or less what I expected
