These bookcases were a pain to assemble. One of the horizontal pieces was drilled wrong (one end was reversed)so I had to drill it out, one was missing dowels and it's definately a 4 hand project.

Also, when assembled they are fairly flimsy. I decided against stacking them because I was afraid they would collapse and hurt someone.

I wouldn't buy them again.

I was a little disappointed with the craftsmanship of this item. The pre-drilled holes for the screws on this shelving unit did not match up on either side. Therefore, none of the shelves were ever even. I had to create my own holes in order to make sure the shelves were perfectly flat on both ends. I purchased 2 of these and his was the case for both of them. I wouldn't recommend buying these unless you only have a limited budget.

I bought 2 foldable [3 shelf] bookcases for my church to replace very heavy metal ones. These have some weight to them and seem to be strong. Being able to fold them to put them in storage is very handy for us. Fairly easy to put together and the black was black.

These shelves were a little tricky to put together, but the instructions were clear. They are EXACTLY what I expected and they were perfectly for my displays.

I think I may like this product because it seems like it has some quality to it, but it did not come with directions. Anyone want to share the directions!!!???

I was disappointed to have items missing from tne packaging. Needed 14 screws, only 13 came. Missing wood plugs. Sloppy quality control.

I ordered this bookshelf because I thought it was mostly assembled. Instead, I received it and saw that it was not assembled. Then, there was no hardware included. Finally, after receiving a new unit, the assembly was painful. The dowel holes and screw holes are not aligned properly. Therefore, it cannot be safely assembled. The screws that did fit were flimsy and difficult to place and tighten. I would not recommend this product!

As the other review indicates, its a pain to assemble. The tools that came with were not sufficient to complete the job. The pre-drilled holes didn't help much and it was hard to screw. I have done plenty of home improvement and projects like this so I was prepared, but you should know its a bit of a project to get it together.

Once together, I like it. Pain was worth it I guess, but I am rating it lower since it was not too friendly to work with.
