I found it difficult to put together. I also find it is too heavy for me to mount to the wall. I think the paper tabs to cover the screws that don't set into the wood looks cheap and tacky. I can't in good consciousness recommend this item to others. 

Pros: its wood
Cons: Cheap paint, screw that do not set into the wood, its weighs too much, not practical for today's living. Difficult to put together and instructions are of no assistance.
