Very lightweight and easy to put it together. We purchased a couple of these for storage in my wife's arts and crafts room. It's perfect for her craft supplies and balls of yarn. They fit perfectly in the closet to hide them away - would recommend them for any lightweight storage needs. 

Also, one box was short one rod needed to complete assembly. I emailed the company's customer service and they had a replacement part out asap and I received it in less than a week - thanks Rita you rock!
