Besides the terrible directions on putting this together, the bookcase has to be screwed to the wall for it to stand properly without tipping over. Not OK. I did not plan on screwing holes in my wall.  The directions for the back - sliding back panels in, there are not enough holes for all the screws they give you. Thankfully, they can screw in on their own with enough pressure. The bottom piece of the case was cracked but not terrible.  I was planning on buying a second one to match but no way.
