We just purchased our bookcase and it arrived very promptly.  I was concerned because the box had a number of  big gouges in it.  However when we opened it  the bookcase was so well packed and insulated that it was not damaged!  It was easy to put togeather with 2 of us.  The most difficult part was putting the screws in from underneath the shelves.  Tipping it upside down helped.  Now you see no screws and it fits and looks great. We put a screw into the wall to anchor it.  It is solid and very attractive.
