Not quite as easy to put together as the directions were incorrectly marked in several places (the pictures of the parts didnt match the letters used to identify the parts). Once its together its pretty sturdy, but its not level on its own. The shelf rocks back and forth unless you affix it to the wall, which is not ideal. Overall, its okay. But I was pretty frustrated trying to put it together only to find out at the end that its not going to stand up straight without wobbling.
