I needed something for all my fabric storage totes; it was getting out of control. This unit was fairly easy to put together (I was doing it by myself and then my husband saw that I had it all in hand and decided to help when I was about 2/3 of the way through, because it didn't look frustrating, but I could have done it alone). It is sturdy and the totes fit well. I am tempted to lay a board across the top, just to make a securely flat surface. It's very utilitarian looking, but its so much better than stacking the totes right on top of each other. I'm happy with it.
