I had high hopes for this bookcase. But the instructions were incredibly hard to follow, and the worst part some of the boards didnt have all the holes they needed, or the hole went all the way through when it shouldnt have. Then at the end, they had us line up round flat screws to oval holes. Dont buy this one. Weve bought about 8 pieces of furniture that needed building in the last week and this is the only one that killed us. Its terrible quality. Thank goodness Im only using it as a display cabinet.
