This is a great bookshelf. Super cute for a girls room. And way less than a similar PB version. It was easy to assemble with the instructions and we used a power drill to speed the process. There was a board that was missing a hole for the screw. But we just screwed it in anyway and it worked. My only complaint is that the back of the bookshelf is that sort of flimsy cardboard. I wish it was the the sturdier looking MDF like the rest of the bookshelf. I would have paid the extra 5 or 10 for that.
