I love this console.  This came piece by piece and my husband and I put it together.  I suggest two people to help put this together as we did.  We both agreed it would've taken longer with one person. The instructions are pretty straight forward.  The piece matches my desk and bookshelf in my writing room and the shelves in the unit are adjustable and provide a lot of storage space for my needs.  I'm very pleased with this purchase :)
