I bought these for an in-home "library" - good price, I thought, for getting several bookcases that looked somewhat classy. They were a pain to put together, but any assembly-required furniture probably would be in multiples... I was disappointed with the design, though, once I realized after getting them together that the pieces that frame the front sides of the bookcase cover an inch or more of the shelves - which means it'll cover up a book's spine and make it difficult to remove if you've got a full shelf. Does hold up well, though, with shelves full of books.
