The reviews were correct in saying that this garment rack is easy to assemble.  It's a little on the flimsy side, but we don't plan to overload it, so I'm sure it will work nicely.  What we liked about it is the shelf on the top and bottom to put other items on.  If you need a very sturdy garment rack one that will hold heavy coats or a lot of garments - I don't think this will work for you.
