I really love the look of these bookcases. (I bought two.) They fit perfectly in my reading nook. They were very easy to assemble. The instructions recommended two people needed for assembly, but I assembled them  by myself with no difficulties. The reason I didn’t give a full 5 star review is because when I opened the box I found a number of screws that had fallen out of the part of the shelves that are suppose to be already assembled. And once assembled the bookcases are slightly wobbly when tapped from the side; adding the wall strap does not remedy this. I do not see this being a probably for me, since my bookcases sit in the corner and I do not have small children in the household. However, this is something you might want to keep in mind if you are planning to use them as a room divider or in a busy household.
