My husband and I put the rack together in just an hour or so..the instructions were easy, and each part was clearly labeled. We have it in the back of a walk-in closet, and it's already mostly full.  I think we're going to have to get another one for our CDs.  You have an excellent product here, and the price is unbelievable.  It's nice enough looking to put out in the living room, but we don't have enough wall space.
