This product didn't come with assembly instructions,  so I'm extra thankful for my husband's ability to improvise and his knack for building. The bookcase is just as pictured. There are some places that have holes and white stickers are supplied to cover the holes. They are a bit transparent, so I'd say this is the cheapest looking part of the piece. I would have given 5 stars had there been a bit more quality to cover the holes and if instructions had been included. In all, good looking piece.
