Very easy to put together, matches description, and great quality. As others mentioned, this is a very petite bookshelf and I suppose I overlooked that characteristic due to the great price. Looking back, I wish I would have spent more money on a taller and wider bookcase but I didn't want go through the hassle of shipping this item back. 

Also, because the wood is lighter, I had planned on staining it to match my TV stand. The wood itself is natural but it does have a glossy texture/finish that requires us to sand before we stain in.
