I purchased this to use in my sewig room and was afraid at first as I saw that many had problems putting it together. Well it would be easier if 2 people put it together, but I did quite well by myself and I am a 56 year old single lady...I live in a home that is over 100 years old and there is only one closet..so I REALLY needed storage for my sewing area! This is great and I plan on ordering at least 2 more! Very nice piece of furniture. I did not feel that the backing was very sturdy so I just went to the hardware store to get some wood strips to run across the back in a few places..no problem!! I give this a 5+!!
