This is a great bookcase. The quality is about as good as an average Ikea piece, but it is (in my opinion) designed with a bit more flair and creativity. The main attraction for me being the use of negative spaces between the main shelves, the little "mini" shelves" between the main ones that are surprisingly useful, and the alternating staggering of the small dividers between left and right. It is very easy to put together, like building a cake. It's also not that difficult to flip it. Just be careful and go slow.
