Be sure to check the measurements on this! It does look larger in the picture, but it is the size of a small TV stand. It was lower than I expected. Beware of the Q&A that says the opening is 12" between shelves. It's not! I measured it myself and it's a little less than 10". Luckily, the baskets we had bought fit perfectly! You can use pliers go put this together although the proper socket wrench would be easier. There is no need to screw the shelves onto the unit, it's a snug fit, the shelves won't move. Everything else written in the reviews is correct. Overall, happy with our purchase.
