This bookcase was a really pleasant surprise. The box was very sturdy so everything arrived in tact and in excellent condition. On opening I found that the parts were carefully protected by thick polystyrene and the critical parts wrapped in protective material. What really surprised me is that all the sundry fixings were individually bagged and lettered, and many had a spare in case something goes awry.
The build was extremely simple, no gluing just place the fixings and turn the coup[ling and everything comes together brilliantly. The instructions were simple, straightforward and remarkably easy to follow.
Once completed the bookcase is sturdy, it's going to take a lot of use in my opinion, therefore a great investment. It looks good, feels good and has made a great addition to our furnishings.
