After purchasing 2 different bookcases and an entertainment center made by the same manufacturer, I decided to get 2 of the bookcases. All the pieces are easy to assemble (alone about 2 hrs) with clear and simple instructions. The best part is how elegant and rich looking they are. I put these two in my living room with my TV and entertainment unit in between. I am very pleased with them.Pros: Great value, beautiful dark wood finish and easy to assemble
