I absolutely love the bookcase! The directions to put it together! A nightmare! If you aren’t used to putting together furniture and reading “furniture directions” - thus able to use your own intuition and guess what parts go where, what steps in the instructions where skipped, and basically “DIY” with instructions, it’s going to be a headache, so have the Advil ready!  Once the bookcase is together, it’s great! A very sturdy piece, with one solid “cubby” and the rest are open, a matching “front and back” that are both finished so you can tuck it against a wall, or have it open in a room, as I do, with books on both sides.  It’s great for my office, but would look cute just about anywhere! And my cat loves to curl up in the closed in cubby on the bottom!
