I am very pleased with this purchase.  I knew the bookcase 'different' when the package was delivered......I could barely lift or more it....which told me that it was not a cheap, light-weight, imitation of a usable and fully functional book case.  It proved to be very easy to assemble.  It is a solid  bookcase and just what I needed for some of (too) large book collection.

Now I must buy two more!  For the money this is a 'steal.'
