Mensa meets Ikea… but nice piece,
Delivery was fine, bar the fact I had to take it 3flrs to my apartment since it didnt get delivered to door. : Its a 2 man job for sure.
Got all the pieces out the box (a lot of them), instructions etc.. ok all good.
Dowels glued in and lock screws all in place. Time to assemble.
Instructions and assembly went great…UNTIL.. you try to put the sections together. Unless you not only follow the instruction AND use picture as a guide, your in for a fun time…
Each section HAS to be the correct way (as per picture) and it can very easily get turned around causing issues later on.
The lock screws get hidden with sticky circles in a black fake wood, these could do with being a little nicer looking.
After everything, 3 re-dos/start agains/pull aparts, a little cussing and 2.5-3hrs later you have a rather nice piece of furniture.
Sturdier than Ikea styles, nice modern piece against the wall/divider what ever you choose.
Would recommend partial put together before gluing dowels in, this way if something gets flipped around, it would be easier to fix.
Happy with this product now its done. Dissappointed..NO, Frustrated…A little

|Decent Bookcase For The Price,
We actually bought this so that we could place it on its side rather than use it upright.
When this arrived, I was a little annoyed when I took out the pieces and realized that their idea of a “Black Oak Finish” is a black background with a silver wood grain painted on it. Silver. Not really what I was expecting. I have a couple of other Ikea-esque pieces of furniture, but at least the other faux wood finishes had the grain indented into the laminate. This finish is also tissue paper thin, so we’ll just have to wait and see how long it will hold up to the accidental bump or scratch – I’m guessing we won’t be waiting long.
The second star removal occurred when I realized that they had forgotten to include instructions for putting this jigsaw puzzle together – and the hardware had broken loose from it’s container and was rolling about inside the box. Luckily for me, there was a picture on the box and that pretty much served as my “instructions”.
All in all, this really isn’t too bad considering the price – just make sure you don’t set your expectations too high and you’ll probably think it’s fantastic.

|Unique Shelving,
Love this, easy to assemble. Not oversized. Black with light silver wood grain look.
Looks black when put together. Complimented by guests, very unique.
