I'm familiar with this maker and the instructions could be a lot better. But since I'm good at puzzles it didn't take me long to figure out and put together. At the dowel joints I used a dab of carpenter's wood glue (better safe than sorry) since bottles tend to be heavy. The cabinet holds lots and looks great. It holds 6 wine glasses easily. Took 2 of us to level and hang so have a friend handy, and I also drilled and sunk 2 more wall anchors and screws on the bottom section...OK Im concerned about my alcohol bottles lol...
