This is a beautiful piece that was simple to assemble. Looks perfect with my daughter's white furniture. I had previously purchased a 9 cube shelving system that was cheap, cracked fiber board and ended up leaving it on the side of the road! I bought this to replace it and it is excellent quality wood and my toddler can access all of her toys and books by herself ( which is crucial for the I do it myself! stage she is in haha)
