A little difficult to put together - also very heavy so if you are female enlist in some help.  I was lucky enough to have my daughter and her boyfriend put it together for me (they surprised me) at my beach condo.  I use it as a room divider and it looks amazing.  I love it and it was the perfect divider for my needs - also gave me extra storage as I put baskets on some of the shelves to hold items.  Love, Love, Love it.  Highly recommend - but don't try putting it together yourself.
