OMG, I have never in my life had so much trouble putting in 4 lousy, little screws.  I got my shelf 
today and looked at the instructions and I thought to myself, "this is going to be easy to put together".
I did not know how wrong I was. I have spent the last 6 hours trying to put the first 4 screws into the metal section. I have put together all of the furniture in my home. It just saves me some money when bought ready to assemble. I'm starting to hate this little shelf. Still working on it. Might send it back.
