Overall, I recommend this bookcase- it looks really nice and serves it's purpose.  That being said, it is a little hard to put together (and this from someone who has mastered IKEA furniture again and again).  I got the white version and the screws were painted over which made it harder to grasp a hold when screwing them into place, several pieces were unclear as which side is "up" and one of the toggles was sideways, which had to be corrected before it could be assembled fully.  Despite the initial frustration, it looks great and again, I would recommend.
