Love this bookcase overall.  Lots of storage.  Due to the size, I recommend 2 people and at least 3 hours of your time, if not more.  Directions were semi-straight forward. Not all of the pieces were marked.  My only concern is the backing as it's flimsy and comes in one piece.  Due to the size, it should have been in 2 pieces.  One of the seams on the backing was split open.  Luckily, I have enough books to fill it so it's not so noticeable.  Overall, a great piece.
