All in all the bookcase looks good. I purchased assembly & Angelo was fantastic - I would have felt very daunted at attemptingit myself. I have a few niggles; there is a very strong unpleasant smell from the 'wood' - hopefully that will disappear as time goes on. As others have said, the plastic shelf support pegs feel unfit for purpose though they are still holding up! Those niggles aside I'm happy with my purchase
