Gave this item for a gift and for the price this bookcase was just what our daughter was looking for. we followed the directions for assembly and everything went as explained. the only problem we had was with delivery as the glass was broken on the first item and a shelf was broken on the replacement item. however, wayfair was great about the damage issues; and we did finally get a damage free bookcase to assemble. it looks great!pros: great looking bookcase for the price.cons: assembly a little difficult and watch for damage pieces from the delivery.
