The idea of this bookcase was great. Once we received it, we immediately opened it to find several pieces damaged during transport. It came in multiple boxes. The instructions that were included were difficult to understand which made it very difficult to build. Once it was built, the back piece (the last peice) was damaged and is very visible. We would have returned it but since we needed it asap and took the packaging and shipping into consideration, we realized it would have been a pain to return. We will not be buying anything like this again. I have included pictures.
