This bookcase was pretty easy to put together and, from a distance, looks really great.  However, up close, there are definitely many imperfections.  The tacks used to hold the trim in place show, and the veneer is chipped away in several places.  I ordered two of these, and both exhibited the same flaws.  One even had some major damage due to shipping (trim torn away from two of the pieces), but I called the help number on the instruction sheet and received prompt, courteous service and received replacement pieces a week later.  

Again, these shelves really do look very nice, for the most part.  The color is pretty and the construction is very sound.   Just be aware that they won't be perfect.
