Assembly is easy, and it looks fine. The bookcase is so tall and the depth so narrow that attaching it to a wall is absolutely necessary.  But the wall attachments included is ok at best and a bit of a pain to align. The shelves are flimsy enough that it's fairly easy to flex them with heavy objects. The included stickers to cover the screws are a joke. They don't match the grain and don't stick, so I've been finding them in places all over the room. I guess it's what you pay for, but it's still not a great value.
