We love the way this bookcase / display-case looks.  It was actually really easy to put together because all the pieces are marked with numbers, and the instructions give you the exact order to put things together.  BUT, the pre-drilled holes on the case were off on a few of the shelves, and so there are some slight gaps between some of the joints that make it apparent that the case was assembled, as opposed to a nicely constructed, high-quality piece.  I was also turned off a bit by the little white stickers they give you to cover the screw holes, but from a few feet away they do not look that bad.  We use it to store a mixture of books and small sculptures, and are basically happy with it, with the exception of a few of the shelves being crooked due to the badly drilled holes.
