Very happy with this bookcase. The delivery packaging was sturdy and well packed. It took us approx 1 & 1/2 hours to put together. The directions are very clear and easy to understand. The challenge we had was with a couple of the pre-drilled holes didn't align. The directions advise you to not tighten all of the screws until the last step, which we followed although still had a bit of a challenge. In the end we were able to get everything tightened. The bookcase quality is really nice and looks amazing! Definitely recommend!
